Crafts in 2024 Roundup!

Crafts and baking!

Crafting roundup for 2023 is here, including a scarf I knit with wool from Finland!

I posted my 2022 crafts roundup and cited new goals for 2023:

One friend has requested a shawl; I'd like to try something fancy (before next Christmas!). I'd like to try yet another complicated Kate Davies pattern. And finish the blanket/wrap I started last year!

I didn't cite goals for 2024 :p

For this year, so far I've got a knit-a-long planned, for a pair of mittens! I've had the same goals for ages, to improve at crochet, to try spinning...but I think just making it a habit to knit more regularly will be enough!


Winter
A new blanket!
And a new hat!

Spring
Rosy maple moth pie baking class with Samba Schutte!

Summer
Worldwide Knit in Public Day!
Worldwide Knit in Public Day, a new blanket! I haven't actually finished this one...
Gifts and a new scarf!

Autumn
Finished scarf, and baking!
More knitting and baking (including my share of a collective project)
Crafts and nature photos (and Michael Palin)!
Mac 'n' cheese class with Samba Schutte!

I attended an exhibit about Orenberg shawls!






















So beautiful and intricate! Love the fact that these creations went up into space!


I recently finished two scarves, and my part of an Our Flag Means Death project!









The cushion was a gift from a friend!











Sorting all the Our Flag Means Death art on my corkboards! And there's my pufferfish!


What sorts of craft projects are you working on?
