It takes me longer to work on crafts since naps are still a required thing for me. Plus I have to keep my feet and legs elevated when in the recliner which makes crafting harder to do from that angle.
It took me five months to finish my sweater project. Part of the lengthy process was due to my decision to modify the pattern. I made the "Lauriel" sweater but only used the yoke instructions. Then I made a plain cardigan for the rest. It came out a bit big but it's loose and flowy. I intend it to be a layering piece anyway.
Now, I pulled out my "Vivid" Blanket to get that put together. I decided to just make it to the size of squares I already completed. It's been languishing for so long I no longer love the project but don't want to abandon it. It will be about a full-size bed throw which is good for using in the recliner.
I also finished spinning up 7.5 ounces of a gradient colorway. Tour de Fleece starts June 29 and I'm looking forward to that.
Some stitching has been accomplished as well. My Sophie cat project is about 75% done. "Ambilight" also got some stitches put into it.
My upcoming plans are to spin for TdF, finish the cat stitch, start another sweater and crocheted blanket, and try to get more stitching on a couple other cross stitch projects.
I still need the walker. I think that is a permanent situation. I go in the stores now. Pat brings the riding scooter out to the car for me, and I ride around doing my shopping. It works well for me. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to walk that long.
