0.000 HBDNeedlework Monday: Community Project Almost Done!
<html> <p>Happy #NeedleworkMonday!</p> <p>I was looking forward to completing our community project - the scarf to hang up for the homeless - last weekend, but I had a bunch of stuff going on and didn’t finish. Plus, last week, Alabama had unusually warm weather. We got up to 80 degrees last Wednesday - and it is STILL February!!! 😱</p> <p>Here is the almost completed scarf.</p> <p><img src="https://www.dropbox.com/s/5mwdj6g9zqkvxod/ScarfComplete.jpeg?raw=1"/></p> <p>I have about 8 more rows to go, and if I can knock this out tonight, I can get the encouragement note attached and get it out there Wednesday.</p> <p>I really like the triple crochet stitch, because it creates this pretty pattern. It’s interesting that the new stitches (well, that are new to you) make you nervous to try until you dive in. What a lesson to learn, right? We have to be willing to step out and try new things because we are only here for a short time, but we are building a legacy for others in our lives to follow. (And don’t be fooled - others ARE watching how you live your life.)</p> <p>Here’s my encouragement for the person receiving this scarf....</p> <p>”Encourage yourself, believe in yourself, and love yourself. Never doubt who you are.” - Stephanie Lahart</p> <p><br></p> <p>Thanks for this challenge for February! I had fun! 💜</p> </html>
