Keeping busy.

I've used up nearly all the yarn oddments I had making a blanket so I bought a box of yarns and half-made items from eBay.

The box arrived today and I've already had great fun sorting it. The box contained a mixture of half made items and balls of yarn. It also contained some knitted squares, these I have put to one side and I will sew them together. Next I will alternate between pulling the half-made items apart and making yet another crochet blanket with the full balls of yarn. There is enough to keep me busy for the rest of this year at least.


Sue in Suffolk, I have used those Velcro type hangers for all my small pictures, the ones I have left are larger and heavier and many have glass fronts to the frames.

I love reusing yarn to make new things. Great buy from EBay.

I'm glad you knew about the sticky picture fixers - they are so handy

Wow if I'd known you could sell unfinished items I would have.. I suppose you bought a 'job lot' ? I don't need anything but I'm going to look to see what's there!

Isn't it fun sorting through someone else's stash. When I sold off all my wools and craft things the lady that bought them was in seventh heaven.

RIP Dolly

Dolly Patron has died, I saw her perform at the NEC, she was fantastic.
