Sewing

Bob’s shirt is coming along. Just buttonholes and buttons to do now.
Knitting

I’ve finally cast on the Ghost Knitter’s Shawl from Ambah O’Brien. I’m looking forward to knitting a triangle in yarn that glows under a black light. I’m using one of my Gloomy Erina sparkly coffin progress keepers from the Autumn Yarn Mystery Box.
Natural Dyeing

I hapazome dyed some flowering indigo onto more Virginia cotton canvas. Is this a WIP? I guess so, since I’ll likely sew project bags with it for the shop. Unfortunately, the flowers didn’t stay purple after washing. They are still a lovely apricot color.
Gardening

I stuck some Yukon Gold potato eyes into some dirt, and now I have potato plants! My plan is to winter them indoors as a houseplant and then plant them in a potato bin in spring.
What are you working on this week?
What a fun assortment of projects!! Bob’s shirt is so cool, and I can’t wait to see how the project bags turn out. I’ll watch your potato progress with interest, because I would not mind having quick access to my own potatoes, if they’re easy to grow.

Wowza! You are getting so good at your dyeing! Really like that print. I could see it as a crafting smock or apron!

That dying looks amazing! I am hand quilting this week and trying to catch up on my last BOM….a gazillion tiny pieces on one, which is why I am behind, I had to get brave!
