Stach And Stuff

Today is a cold day. In the 20's last night. Good day to work in my sewing room and "sort" things.

As with most quilters, I have a good size stash of fabric, and need to use up some. So I have decided to not buy any fabric till I use up some of my stash. Hope I will be able to do it. I guess I have to stay out of the fabric store for a while! LOL But a quilter can never have to much fabric!

I do not have a big stash of yarns. I have been a knitter for over 40 years, but taught myself to knit socks about a year ago. Good sock yarn cost a little to much for me, so I use what I can get. I do love the fine sock yarn for knitting socks, but again that is hard to find in my price range. I will not let that stop me from knitting socks thou!

Here is a picture of the first pair of socks I knitted.


I used the "self patterning yarn" in this pair. I love the way the yarn works up.
