Last day of March 2020...
...and it's been quite a month.
I finished the Scarab handspun [Ravelry]:
and the close-up:
Specs:
Started 3/17/2020
Finished 3/27/2020
Falkland (4.1 oz) from the Yarn Wench
185.4 yds. chain-plied with beads, 10 WPI
I started a new weaving project yesterday. I'm calling it Milky Way [Ravelry]. It uses the Destination Yarn Space collection minis and yarn that I bought at this year's Stitches West. I also went through my stash and found some complimentary sparkle yarns to use in the warp.
I spent some time trying to sew a mask using a pattern from Masks Now and ran into a problem with the instructions. The pattern is for a mask that covers an existing N95 mask. It took me a while to figure out that there were a couple of steps missing. Now I need to go back and try again to sew the mask. It was frustrating. At least I was making a mask for myself as a way to try out the pattern.
I baked another loaf of sourdough bread, this one with olives. It was an experiment that sort-of worked. The loaf is still tasty, but it didn't rise as much and is a little dense in places. Next time, I'll use different olives and add them later in the process.
