The only rule is that whatever you choose to knit or crochet must be a challenge for you.
I'm a bit more than half way through my project – another Hemlock Ring Blanket. This time, I used 100% wool and I'm a much happier girl!
I have a full week left. Closing ceremonies are Sunday, August 24 at 8:00 so I'm guessing I'll have til about midnight if I need it! Don't know how much I will get knit this weekend. We are headed to Toledo for the International Festival at the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo on Saturday. I've always wanted to go and this is finally the year! Tours, arts, foods, expanding my horizons, learning about different cultures and religions. . . can't wait!
Someone asked why in the world we wanted to go to an Islamic Festival. . .my answer was that we might live in Findlay but we don't have to act like it. That was the end of that conversation. . .
Dang. . .and I didn't even get to point out that more people have been killed and more violence committed in the name of Christianity over the centuries than by the followers of Allah. . .
Have a great weekend!
