BOOMER BARBARA ROCKS RETIREMENT- SOME USE OF MY WOOL RESOURCES

Resigning oneself to living on a fixed income takes some ingenuity. So a previous post described using the resources at hand. Almost like my parents' generation that grew up through the depression.
So attacking the odds and ends of my yarn stash was a good beginning.

The pink and blue small balls of wool have created two little hats and a scarf in process. Two shades of pink wool has become a nice baby blanket. The multi coloured wool is a 10 stitch afghan stitch to use in a crazy quilt style blanket for the master bedroom that is in the works. I have used small balls of purple and green that match well with the coral centre.

The yellow hat for a young child was two balls of yellow while the purple and green child blankets used more scraps of wool.
I find that watching TV with my husband allows the time in the day and night to work on these projects. Not more than a couple of hours daily. The feeling of making something useful from my bag of misc balls of yarn gives a good sense of accomplishment. Plus making room in my craft room.
My knitted and crocheted stash is growing. So sell, donate or give as a gift gives this Senior some options in frugal living. Always looking for a place to sell them too!!
