I'm trying to finish up some languishing WIPs this month since I have two fairly large projects (one big stole and a sweater) I want to start in the next couple of weeks, so I pulled out all the things sitting in my basket to see what I could get off the needles before then.… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – January 19, 2022
