Today I decided that I deserve a poncho! And a fluffy scarf!! So, I decided to buy some new yarn! If you’ve been reading my blog you know that I’ve been freaking out about what type of fiber to buy and how much. Well, thank God for Lion Brand website and Walmart’s inexpensive yarns!
For the poncho I bought Lion Brand Homespun #322 Baroque – a nice soft purple. (I’ll try to post pictures tomorrow!) For the scarf I bought Bernat Eye Lash #35006 – a purple/green/brown/teal color – that will match my new black leather coat! My new coat is actually a hand-me-down from a friend at church – what a blessing!! It is just what I would have picked out if I could have picked one out – and I never could have afforded this!
My friend, Ruth bought a skien of Lion Brand’s chenille and I’m going to make her a quick garter stitch scarf! Other than these 3 projects, I’m going to finish my “Thing” and start some flowers for the February Flower Exchange. The socks, sweater for my niece and DHs afghan are on hold!
