I finally got around to starting my first Melt the Ice hat. A lot of variations have show up but I’m going to start by following the original pattern first and see how it works up for me.
I love that these hats are being knit and worn in protest of what the ICE agents have done in MN and in other parts of our country. I support reasonable efforts to control our borders. I do NOT support the terrorizing and inhumane treatment of people that has been occurring.
I’ve also been busy with my crochet blankets … today I’m working on #7 and #8. I thought I was just going to weave the ends in #7 but I had more yarn so it’s going to be just a little bigger. Here are 6 of the 7 pictured. I know most of you are only here for the quilting but I can’t tell you how much my knitting and crochet help me in times when my health is challenged.
Having said that … I can’t wait to get back to more sewing!! I’m hoping I’m up to it next week. I’d like to get a few things done before we head to VA.
