....from the handiwork journal

It's a long shot, but if any of my crocheting followers have this yarn, and want to get rid of it (could barter too), I am looking for more of it.


It has been discontinued.  Pisgah yarn and dye, #198 Black Cherry (cotton, a variation of pinks, gray, black and white).  I've had a request for a set of hot pads, but I don't have enough of it to make another set.




....working on this beaded crocheted bracelet now.


. . . finished these two orders and got them shipped.



. . . and this bracelet.  I'm working on bracelets to stock up for the fall holiday craft show.  One person had to back out of her order (left her husband and doesn't have the money), and the other hasn't responded).





....spray painting more clipboards.  If you are making these, now is a good time to buy the pens for them.  They are on sale for $1.00 with school starting.  They need a few more coats of paint, and then I start painting a few more.







....still working on a set of hot pads.  Last piece to finish before I crochet them together.



....starting to make us some new washcloths, but with a new pattern.  The pattern is free online - Moss Stitch Washcloth (The Stitchin Mommy). I'm going to make more this winter for the camper too.




(old photo, but you get the idea)
....cutting up more egg cartons for campfire fire starters.

    This is my favorite pot holder pattern. Have you made these?

  2. No yarn to help, I don't think I've ever even bough Pisgah.???? I like Simply Soft, and Soft Secret and don't have much of those anymore. I'd like to hear more about your craft journey, how you sell and prepare for the craft fairs.

  3. I bought some stuff yesterday to begin making a few necklaces that I hope to sell online. I need extra money and I do not want to have to work outside of the home.
