I learned to knit in high school too in my final year and wish I had learned earlier. It was a calming practice for me at the time and still is.

After all, you know what mine looks like. And I had forgotten to say in my post that I bagged up a big trash bag full of yarn to donate to a local shelter which has classes for the teens and moms to help them while away the evenings in the shelter. More time is spent indoors now that winter has arrived here.<br />You have so much done for Christmas already. I'm usually done by now, but I've lost my organizational skills I had when I was working. Now I think I have lots of time and I really don't. :-)<br />Have a lovely week and take some time for yourself.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-20014282970533986812017-11-20T12:05:55.696-05:002017-11-20T12:05:55.696-05:00So good to see Little B smiling again.We have spen...So good to see Little B smiling again.We have spent the afternoon shopping for Xmas but didn't get very far!busybusybeejayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570020362062932692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787570018101441310.post-83394969844427784572017-11-20T11:23:25.342-05:002017-11-20T11:23:25.342-05:00We usually go plant shopping on a Friday morning b...We usually go plant shopping on a Friday morning but haven't had a chance so far because my husband has been working Friday mornings (usually his only fully day off) for the past month now. I'm hoping we will get to go this Friday coming up. Good for you donating your yarn for a good cause. More people should knit/crochet for the therapeutic benefits. How lovely that you got to spend time with Lynda. Nice to see Z man smiling again.

I've been shopping and wrapping like a crazy person. But now I have to stop for t-giving.<br />I so admire people who are honest about their stashes. Yours is quite modest! Mind could not fit into one cabinet like yours.

I did that about 8 months ago or so. I gave a lot of yarn to a church that has a ladies group that makes all sorts of things for people overseas in need. But I gave mine away because I had so much yarn and I don't knit or crochet a whole lot. I am trying to be more careful in purchases now. I'm glad little Buddy is feeling much better.

What a shame he was ill while you were travelling. Thank goodness he is on the mend now.<br /><br />Your yarn stash is looking very respectable! You are making great progress with the destash and it is wonderful to know that the calming effects of yarncrafting are helping school students. What a great cause.<br /><br />I love that yarncrafting is so practical and can be used for so much good in the world. <br /><br />All the best for LB's recovery and I hope you get some time for you during your days off.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.com
