Dolly Parton had a coat of many colors. I now have a scarf of many colors.
I need another project, like a need a hole in my head.
However.
I've wanted to learn the corner to corner (C2C) crochet stitch, and I'm using up leftover, leftover yarn.
While I'm crocheting the scrap blanket, there are small balls of yarn. That would be the "leftover, leftover" yarn balls. They are too small to even make one row across the blanket, so they are in a basket.
My inner, "you can't store that anymore" and "can't waste it mode" (again) kept poking at me.
"Eat it up,
Wear it out,
Make it do,
Or go without."

Random Tidbits ~ We have a Winner!
I am still deep cleaning, sorting, tossing, and donating. The kitchen has been an obstacle course for a few weeks. Book shelves moved out, more piles of books to donate, misc. items stacked in piles ready to be bagged....and I started on my roll top desk.
I have to admit, I dreaded the desk cleaning.
Oh the guilt that flooded me for all those lost days of writing. Oh the joys of finding things again.
I found 3 long lost, large eye needles and a needle threader I had been looking for. They were all in the bottom of a can used for pencils in my desk.
