Craft Your Daily Reflections--based on Leafcutter Designs Sky Scarf concept

[goktrose]

Ooo this sounds like fun. Definitely going to get some yarn and try this. Hopefully I can keep up. (crosses fingers)

Oh I am joining this, I've had this scarf pinned for awhile.  Now do I want a scarf or perhaps a ripple something or perhaps the stitch I feel like that day.  This would be a great calm project that I don't feel rushy-rushy with, and I will develop a bit of patience. 

Okay, must get mini calendar to record color (for those times I might fall behind), pick pattern and color code, and obtain yarn (YAY more yarn!).

And lovesclutter, I adore the mood chart; I'm curious as to what mine would look like.  But then I got real with myself and decided to stick to sky for this year....maybe next year.

I think I really like this idea!!  Hmmmm.....I think I'll record the sky when I pick the kids up from school, 3:00 pm and make a ripple blanket.  ORRRRR, I could have one kid each day bring me a ball of yarn from my not so small stash and that would be the colour that day.  Hmmmm......decision s decisions!!!

I love the idea if a ripple scarf!

I am going to make some sort of project bag to hold my yarn for this project...if I leave it out, the kitties will find it for sure...I am thinking of a case with room to hold 5 or 6 small balls of yarn (I got 50 gram balls)...I got a fabulous yarn bag from a swap but it only holds two balls...I bet I can figure it out to do six partitions...projec t #125!!

What a lovely idea! I'm thinking about crocheting a scarf, but I think I would need to find about 5 different shades of gray for my sky!

Today is was very foggy out...the sky could not be seen at all...I was wondering how I would do a day like that...I did not want to do white because white is for my clouds...I think I need a very light grey....we have a lot of fog in our valley... ---or, maybe I need to pick a different time than my morning commute...this is harder than I thought, but I am planning away...

Someone sent me a yearly pocket calendar as a gift!  It is meant to be...

I forgot to look at the sky when I woke up, but when I got into the car, it was this cool grey with a bluish tint. I had to stop at the craft store today, but couldn't spend the time searching for that perfect shade (and I may already have it). I definitely think I'm going to like the morning sky colors of my scarf!

I was tempted to do something a little more ambitious than a scarf, but then I realized that I'd never get it done. I think I might do a skinny scarf, done in rows of double crochet, but maybe, on occasion (like the weekend or vacations), I can add in some bobbles or some front post trebles. Maybe fptr on the weekend and bobbles on holidays/vacations!
