I’ve been knitting like a crazy demented knitting-lady lately.
I consider it “comfort compensation” to make up for my uncertainty about jewellery making and what I want to do about it in the “future” … damn future, taking up space in my mind …
Since my last crafty sharing: I’ve made (1) a fabulous cabled hot water bottle cover for my dad, (2) a shawl that I’d totally unconvinced about and may rip out, (3) a gorgeous dark-blue silk shawl and a (4) pair of secret socks.

Next: another large snuggly blanket … like I said, comfort crafting.
