Thanks to our friend Linda, our Stream of Consciousness prompt for today is “yarn.” I haven’t participated in a #SoCS for a while but it just so happens I have something to contribute today.
If you follow me you know I love to color and paper craft. I also dabble in crocheting occasionally and I found a couple of different yarns that I fell in love with so I made one shawl and am working on a second. Both are the same design, a triangle shape. This first one has lovely blues and greens. I have enough yarn to make another one so I might do that to sell in the Etsy shop.
The second one is a metallic yarn and I like the way it is coming along too.
I got a notice this week that our favorite Mountain Winery is going to be starting concerts again so these two shawls will be perfect to keep me warm in the outdoor venue.
Happy Saturday everyone!
These are lovely shawls, Janet. I especially like the metallic orange yarn.

Thanks Roberta. It is still too warm to use them but I suspect they’ll come in handy in a couple of months when we start going to our outdoor concerts!

Very nice! Those will be nice to wear to concerts, where it’s always colder than you think it’ll be. The one with metallic yarn is quite good. Sometimes the yarn is everything. Mary’s made a few shawls for herself that were simple, but she used really good yarn and they look quite elegant.

Thanks John! We have been lucky at the outdoor concerts that we have attended and the weather (except for one rainy night) has been really pleasant. But I’m wondering if they do more distanced seating if it will be colder from less body heat? I definitely think the type of yarn has a lot to do with it.
