I need a new project.

I'm bored with my knitting project, so I guess I'll whine here instead.
I'm knitting a dishcloth that I just can't get around to finishing. I should throw it away and start something else, but that's not being frugal.
My deceased m-i-l was an avid crafter. You could open a craft store with all the stuff in her basement. One thing she didn't do was knit, which I do. She crocheted. Anyway...I have a box full of crochet thread. I thought I would knit dishcoths out of the thread. So I bought size 3 knitting needles and using two strands of thread, went to work. This is taking forever, and I'm bored with it.
My dh and I are planning to go to the expediters expo in July. Anyone need crochet thread?

We will take some of it. Jenny has been working on crocheting. Also you could look at opening a store on Etsy.com to sell some of the things that you have made.

I've never checked out Etsy.com. But I havn't made anything with the crochet thread anyway. I'll look for you at expo.

I have been working pretty hard on getting a crocheted blanket for my Mother In Law for Christmas. I am trying to get this blanket done before it gets hot! I do not enjoy crocheting in the summer at all!

gracie is working on a baby sweater for another newborn. she is also working on a log cabin quilt for a june wedding gift . large blocks of yarn in stitch only. very boring and lots of markers. when finished it it will total 19 skeins of yarn and 2 miles if unraveled.

she was also involved in an olympic knitting competition for snicks and grins. did a very nice lace shawl..

Tightly wind the yarn around your E-track straps, and you'll have a kicky fun tie-down for your cargo. The reaction of shippers is priceless, especially if you're White Glove.

Yeah, hadn't thought of that. Wouldn't fit. Oh, well. I guess there's always covering a Pringles can.
