Saturday Roundup

 

I have spent most of this week finishing up my weaving, well at least the washing of the scarf. Next week I will warp the loom for the second scarf. 

Also lots of knitting being done. After all 50 or so pairs of mittens take a bit of time to do. 

These are being sewn up over the next couple of days. I have already made a start on that task and have these done.

I swear that it takes almost as much time to sew these two needle mitts up as it does to knit them (could be I am exaggerating slightly here). I hope to get half of them sewn today and the other half tomorrow so as I can do some more knitting. 

My friend brought me lots of her leftovers and I will definitely have enough to make the 50 pairs plus probably a few more. 

There has been time spent picking blossoms, and plantain leaves to make salves and such. I think I might be there for the dried plantain very shortly. The other three salves may take a bit longer as the amount I can collect is quite small in comparison. I did find a recipe to make a mint salve and will check into that a bit more, supposedly it is good for headaches.

Tomorrow I will update my projects list, and perhaps even post my list for next month.

Everybody have a wonderful evening.

God bless.
