Organization Was Probably A Good Idea

     I have a lot of circular knitting needles.

     I do.

     And I am proud of this.

     But... All of my needles falling out of their plastic box got pretty annoying...

     So, I browsed the glorious YouTube and found a video on how to make a needle case. I can tell you quite truthfully, my life has not been the same since! Okay, well, that might not entirely be true, but my needles have definitely been more organized!

     I used up ALL of Mom's red and checkered stash fabric to make this, and I am definitely in love! I made two pockets on the inside instead of one, so I have twice the storage space for all of my needles. You can just barely see the outlines of the needles in the photo above, but they're there!

Trippy Planets Project Bag

     This bag (I'm lovin' the name I chose for it! lol) was made with some fabric left over from some curtains my mom made once. I had to use some wooden handles because Mom didn't quite have enough fabric for me to be able to sew handles.

     I'm just telling you now, I am very much a beginner at sewing, so my lines aren't particularly straight. I had a good deal of fun making it, though! And it is going to be perfect to hold my Kroy Sock!

Socktastrophe

     As some of you know, I have been working on A TON of projects lately. At least two of them were sewing projects that I only used YouTube videos as basic guidelines for what I made. I'm debating whether or not I am going to put these projects on here or not... I think I probably will, but feel free to tell me what you think in the comment section below!

     What I'm going to show today is one Kroy sock. I haven't made the second one yet because one skein wasn't quite enough for just one sock, so I have to buy more yarn (as if this is a problem!).

Bow before its socky majesty!

     I used 2.75mm DPNs and Kroy Sock yarn in the Rusty Stripes colorway.
