I have not ordered or purchased yarn in a while, because I am trying to use up my supply I already have. However, at some point in the past, I purchased cotton yarns from Herrschners online.
. . . I am back to knitting dishcloths for a winter Holiday craft show. I thought I had a bunch of dishcloths already made, but when I looked through the totes, I did not. I have a lot of cotton balls of yarn, as it was one item my Mom always liked, and purchased from me (she was always gifting someone). It takes me almost 3 hours to knit one of these. I make mine 52 stitches. I will not offer a 3 for $ price on these this winter. They take took much work to make. Or am I just a slow knitter?
. . .I have had a request from someone for an XL hot pad, so that is on the afghan hook. These are crocheted, and my own pattern. I am limited to colors for this, as I need my cotton yarn to be on a cone. They have discontinued many of their yarn colors that are sold by the cone.
We are getting rain. I think the rain will not end until Friday this week. Sunday looks great though. I changed the menu a bit, and we had home canned tomato soup and grilled cheese last night. My husband wasn't feeling all that great.
A co-worker that works with my husband came to work sick last week, and now my husband has a sore throat, feels fatigue and not well. Wonderful. He has been taking Four Thieves Vinegar.
I'm busy in the kitchen, but hope to get a bit of order back in the rest of the house. I gave up on finding some grocery items I needed, and placed an online order. It's frustrating, that I cannot find healthy ingredients in the stores anymore.
If the rain quits a bit today, I hope to go check on the hot peppers and bell peppers today. I am trying to focus on getting the herbs either dehydrated or frozen before the fall frost arrives.
