WiP Wednesday – Buttons!

July 26, 2017April 30, 2021 Heather Storta

Hi all!  I finally found some buttons for my sweater, so progress is being made!  I found two different buttons, and not having my sweater with me when I went shopping, I bought both.

I have a finished object to show you! My Dr Who socks are done!  I'm pretty happy with them (I matched the start of the stripes up perfectly!)  The heel could fit better, but they're good enough. 🙂 And I'm working on my cardigan still. Both sleeves are done and I've started on the body!… Continue reading FO Friday

I actually have a FO to show you on a Friday!  How about that! I finished my Sacre Coeur shawl the other day, and just in the nick of time, too.  My design yarn came the day I finished the shawl, otherwise I would have had to set the shawl down and finish it later. … Continue reading FO Friday
