Knitting Needle Bracelets



I have a bunch of plastic knitting needles that I have acquired over the years that get absolutely no use. I prefer to knit with bamboo and metal {on occasion} so they sit in the bottom of my knitting case. I decided to go through my knitting supplies to sort of spring clean it all and decided to make some bracelets out of a few of them. I used to make toothbrush bracelets and used the same technique in making these.



Check back next month for a how to on making them. They're super easy and a lot of fun!

{W.I.P} Wednesday


 Happy Wednesday!

This past weekend we took a spontaneous road trip up the coast on Hwy 1. It was a lovely day and we had a lot of fun. One of our stops was Cambria, which is just North of us about 30 minutes. We meandered around for a bit and wandered into a shop called Ball & Skein. I've been wanting to knit up some kitchen scrubbys so my honey bought me a skein of moss green hemp yarn. As soon as we got home that night I went straight to knitting them up.

But then something tragic happened and my skein got royally tangled and now I am stuck because it is quite a disaster. I am about ready to host a 'skein untangling' party because I absolutely cannot figure out how to get it untangled and I really want to get these done. But I made some decent progress on one...
I do not, by any means, call myself a knitter, but I can knit a mean square just fine! 


It may not look pretty, but hey; if it gets the job done who cares?
Who wants to come over and help me untangle this mess??

{P.S. I got these gorgeous knitting needles at Eco Bambino!}

And what projects are you currently working on?
