What are you knitting Mary ?

At the moment, nothing. *I am assembling a quilt. *However, I have six
skeins of Araucania fingering weight yarn I found at a re-sale shop a
few weeks ago *for almost nothing, and it is beginning to call to me.
It is yarn made in Turkey and then hand-dyed in Chile, and is a lovely
blue with casts of green. *It is 75% wool and 25% poly, so I'm
thinking of making a pair of mittens just to see how it really goes,
and then turn the rest into a hat, scarf, and perhaps some socks. *But
not until the quilt is finished! *I have put that quilt aside
repeatedly over the past 5 years, and it is time to finish!


Happy creative time to you Mary
Do you have a subject or special technique in the quilt ?
i wish you to enjoy making it and having it
