Crafting On

The act of creating, in one form or another, preserves my sanity amongst the chaos of life. This explains why I always have more than one project going at a time as well as why my housework tends to fall behind. I enjoy seeing what others are working on and keeping calm with, too. What are you creating? What is keeping you going? Snap a picture or two, post it on your blog, on Instagram #craftingon and/or Flickr and then share it with the rest of us by leaving your link below.

Where did my sunshine go? As you can see it was a gray storm cloud type of day.

I currently have a semi-last minute birthday gift for C on my needles. She has been asking me to knit her some fingerless gloves since I finished my Downton Abbey ones. I thought her birthday was the perfect time to grant her wish. I knew the perfect yarn to knit them with, too – the skein we dyed with Indian Amaranth last fall that C quickly claimed for herself. As you can see the pink mellowed out quite a bit from my previous photos but I actually like it even more this way.

p.s. I decided to make things simpler and just shorten the name of the link up to Crafting On. Keep Calm Craft On {crafting on} just felt too long and slightly complicated.

What are you working on? Happy creating!
