This project is a great way to use up yarn scraps and old buttons. |
I had to have a travel project...but what?? Nancy S. sent me a link for a pattern: Quick & Handy Business Card Case. Make it with scraps. Perfect. Use DK weight yarn. No problem. Knit with size 5 double-pointed needles. Got it. I used two different skeins of color-changing sock yarns. I'm going to use one to carry all my coffee house punch cards.
Friday was a trip to Jackson Hole for a Fiber Show... and by time we were stopped for road construction in front of the Tetons, I had one case half-way finished. And over the weekend I finished a 2nd case.
As for the Tetons, they looked majestic, as usual. I wondered if the leaves would be starting to turn. Not so much. We saw the hint of yellow in the tops of a few trees, and the foliage along the rivers was just starting to make the color change. It was a beautiful day for a trip over the mountains, knitting needles in hand.
Life doesn't get much better than a day spent knitting and viewing the Tetons.
ReplyDeleteEager to hear about the craft show - do tell. . .
I wouldn't have done ANY knitting in the car. I would have been staring at the amazing view the whole time.
