Gobble, Gobble....Mr. Turkey is out and about again. I've got a lot of background to do on this one too it seems. Let's see how far I get this month.
Inktober 2024 is now in the books. I did do about 20 of the prompts. I found a lot of them redundant so I combined them into one sketch. I did get them watercolored while watching Hocus Pocus yesterday.
As soon as I was done, I turned that part of the work table into a Christmas card assembly line in hopes of getting The Mister interested in helping get those gnomes colored.
Speaking of Christmas cards, the blue backing paper for the cards is here. I added this bookmark die to the cart. Does anyone use bookmarks anymore or we all on Kindles? Asking for a friend.
The new month has also given me a monster case of startitis. I've got everything ready to go to get this Book Club cardi by Sari Nordlund on the needles.
I'm waiting for the yarn to show up to start these Cozy Quilt socks by Natalie Sheldon. I was tempted to do Arne and Carlos's Christmas stocking KAL again this year and then remembered I hated doing it toe up with them. I could not figure out the heel. It starts today but I'll wait until the whole pattern comes out at the end of the month and if I like it, I'll reverse it and knit it in December. In the meantime, I'll knit along with them using this pattern instead-if my yarn gets here.
And....Halloween wasn't much fun without any little kiddies at the door but I did make my mom's traditional Halloween donuts. I only make them on Halloween because of how dangerous they are. That plate could be gone in one sitting if I really concentrated.
