New Beginnings

I'm sorry to have disappeared for a little while again.  Life in the 'Gingerbread House' gets rather busy at times and when that happens there seems very little time for blogging.  I've still managed to squeeze plenty of yarny time into my days.  Crochet has taken a little bit of a back seat for a while.  I have rather a lot of blankets in various stages of unfinishedness while i satisfy my urge to knit.  I've also been indulging in rather a lot of yarny shopping therapy.  My yarn stash now occupies various cupboards and drawers in almost every room downstairs.  I am trying to spend a little time here and there sorting through my stash, photographing it and adding it to my Ravelry database before packaging it up and storing it in some kind of organised fashion.  So far, I have been concentrating on the newer yarn but eventually I  will have to tackle the yarn I have had for a little while.  I have also decided that I really need to go not just on a yarn diet but a complete and utter yarn ban while I work my way through my stash.  I've also realised I spend way too much time browsing patterns in Ravelry instead of actually being productive, so I am slowly building up a workable queue of patterns and matching them to yarn in my stash.  I am much more monogamous as a knitter than a crocheter and it's very unusual for me to have more than one project on the needles.  
I am hoping to return to hosting the One a Day Project next week, so please do come back on Tuesday to see what I am working on.  It's something a little different from my 'usual' crochet, but you will have to wait until Tuesday for a look.  I really hope some of you reading this are still working on One a Day projects and will join in with my link party next week.

Thank you for stopping by x
