This is a bad, bad thing. I've gotten to the point where I can't sit still and watch TV. My hands have to be doing something. That's why I made the hat...
And I still have a few spiders on order...
I should build up my stock of lip balm holders...
But I need something else. (Okay, those are crochet--all but the hat--which might be a big part of the problem.)
So, I came here to ask for help. What should I knit next? (Or crochet. What should I make next?) I'm desperate for ideas. Is there anything that you'd like to see me add to my shop?
Do you make those cozies for cans and bottles?
ReplyDeleteI with Alex but also think of cozies for coffee cup holders-my fingers burn holding onto them. There are slippers also
ReplyDeleteHmm...what about some sort of pumpkin to go with the spider? Is that something you can do?
ReplyDeleteAnything baby you can do? Thinking ahead to February and birth of grandchild :)
ReplyDeletebetty
Yep. Sweaters, hats, booties. No problem.
DeleteLooks like you can knit anything! Fender covers for my motorcycles? Yikes!
ReplyDeleteYep, that I could do, although I wouldn't recommend it.
DeleteMaybe some holiday presents?
ReplyDeleteYeah. I should have started those months ago. But I'm not sure what I want to make for them. Sigh.
DeleteI'm stuck, too. I started a sweater but lost interest. Same thing with a hat. Like you, I need to do something with my hands in the evening. The cozies might be a good idea. Simple and quick. I need to go check my yarn stash!
ReplyDeleteI started a sweater last year that I haven't touched in ages. Perhaps I'd better get back to it.
DeleteAs a fellow knitter, I like to balance small and/or quick-to-knit projects with larger and/or lengthier projects. For the former, I prefer hats, headbands, bracelets, fingerless gloves, and dishcloths. If you enjoy cabling, like me, perhaps you can incorporate it into more projects? You obviously have the skill, as your cabled cozies for a smartphone and tablet look great. Doilies can be fun, too. :-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I like to have at least three projects going at any one time (so I can switch them out when one is making me crazy), but I haven't managed to figure out what else to do.
DeleteDoilies... Hmmmm... I've kind of wanted to try my hand at turning that sort of look into a cozy...
Winter's coming your way Liz, what about some funky ponchos...big projects. keep you busy for a good while and over here at least they have been the 'must have' for the season....yeh I know that could be because we are well and truly behind the times. Good luck
ReplyDeleteWinter in So Cal isn't what one would call cold. I mean, we would, but what freezes us to the bone makes the rest of the country laugh.
