This afternoon I was bored and decided I needed some play time. So I got out a drawer of beads. Pick out a few strands of beads, then got out my box of findings. Findings are the bits and pieces that are needed to make jewelry and more importantly stitch markers. Today I made 2 strands of glass mushrooms and 1 strand of ladybugs into stitch markers. I also took a few miscellaneous beads , then made a few more stitch markers. I have a few more strands pulled for tomorrow too. The stitch markers on the left are the ones that just happened to wonder off to my knitting room. I finally made the hand carved bear bead into a stitch marker, it has been in my box for years. The rest I will bring to knitting guild with me.
A blog about my life, my fiber arts and pictures of my finished work. I will also throw in the very occasional recipe or shopping tip.

My Appoitment Was A Bust
I made an appointment at the app;low store in La Encantanda to get my battery replaced. They were out of stock. I guess John was lucky when he got his replaced. This was not the only item that they were out of stock on this week. John went to go buy a new IPad and they were out of stock on those too. You need to preorder any iPad and some other items and then you can go in and pick them up.
We as a world are still working through supply chain issues caused by Covid-19. Since we are still having break outs of Covid-19 variants I personally think it will be a year or 2 before we get back to some semblance of normal. In the mean time please be kind to the store personal, they are just as frustrated as you are but have to deal with it hundreds of times a weeek.
So I am taking this time to finish up Version 2.0 of my Fingerless Mitten. Then do some spinning. My version of lemonade.
