I had the energy to do a mini cleaning spree this afternoon. So I can say 4 storage tubs are gone. Well actually 3. One dropped and cracked and since it had no recycling number on it we threw it away. So I guess it is actually 4. I have 2 more bags of quilting material, mostly kids fabric going to a friend who works with 3 different church quilting for charity groups. Spinning fiber going to 2 friends. Yarn going to a bunch of people. Also 2 more boxes are ready to go to Goodwill.
It feels good to share. I want to get my projects down to a reasonable level. The arthritis in my hands is not getting better. So I will make the transition to work on only things that I want to do. Yes, I will still knit charity hats and scarfs because they bring me joy. I get to create pretty things and send them into the world. What could be more joyous than that?
I found a tub of yarn for my charity scarf project too. Knitting will have to wait a bit longer though. The stitches got infected. I did go to the doctor and have to take antibiotics until the bottle is gone. We caught it early before much harm was done. My hand is a little more sore this afternoon.
I am also going to de stash 2 more spindles. These are pretty Turkish spindles in layered wood. They are going to be looking for a new home too. They have been lightly used. They are pretty and spin well. They just don’t fit in to my herd anymore. I just have to figure out where to sell them and determine the price.
