I like those bags for book binding.

I wonder if there is a small business that can reuse you paper bags? Here smaller thrift stores/charity shops will reuse bags from other stores. Same with some venders at farmers markets, craft fairs, vintage shows, rummage sales, Friends of the Library sales, these kinds of things.

Yes, good idea! And some around here will come pick up from a person if it isnt too inconvenient for a team member

Oh goodness, I don’t need anymore! There’s a huge stack in the basement from all my covid imbibing 
I hardly ever keep anything I make. Lately I’ve been donating items to a charity bazaar. That way, I can make whatever I want & it goes to a good cause. Everything sells at that event, they took dozens of fabric shopping bags & reversable gift bags last year. I was so happy to be rid of those things! I often craft for mental health, you know? The items pile up…

I hit 10 projects completed! I can’t post pics of the last two because they haven’t been received yet.

I tried to watch the video as she is one of my favorite crochet designers! I got a little lost, so I can see why it took so long!
I was going to try it, but I don’t have enough in my stash so it will have to wait!
You did a fantastic job!

I just skipped to the diagrams.
The constant counting to 15 and then 7 and then 15 again was time consuming.

I was trying to figure out how to print the diagrams. I did not find them on her website. It is easier for me to knit and crochet from a diagram as that is how my brain works!

Same here. I just copied the diagram from the video on a piece of scrap paper. But ended up not needing it because the pattern is very repetitive.

uh…duh…why did I not think of that!? Easy enough! She also has a blanket I want to do using more of my leftover yarns…and her crochet flowers are just so beautiful! I wish sometimes I was three people!

I hit a dozen projects today with these pants for TheMisterT
I expected this year will have fewer, bigger projects - and I think it still will - so it’s a little surprising that I am at 12 on Feb 10. The next one is bigger.

This fabric works so well for these pants.

Thanks!
I like fast projects while I work on more long term, larger projects. I have a couple of those going so in between, I made another crochet hat (Divine hat) and FINALLY used up the last of this yarn I had leftover from making a huge blanket and two other hats! There was about 18 inches left…I chucked it!
oops…edited: I must have mindlessly wound it up as I see it in my leftovers bag!

Lovely basket! (I am going to have to make one of those eventually…)
I love the way the colors fade into each other on your basket!
