Happy 2024!

 Happy 2024!  While waiting for the new year, I'll continue crocheting a scarf to coordinate with a previous knitted hat.  


With the help of a local yarn shop (LYS) a lovely coordinating merino wool was found. There was not enough hat yarn remaining to make a match. Despite having a mild December, I would like to be prepared for when the cold winds blow. The cold sharp wind doesn't feel as bitter when the neck is warm. Pattern was found on etsy and is coming along nicely once the foundation single crochet (147 stitches) was accomplished.

The recent handstitched project was completed and given in time for Christmas.  Since we are not entertaining tonight or tomorrow, it's the perfect relaxed day to join Kathy and her Slow Sunday Stitchers.  May you all have a blessed New Year!

What a fun and relaxing way to bring in the new year! I hope for some knitting time later today to finish my husband’s hat I’m making him for Christmas. Happy New Year!
