dithering

 today's crafting has been all about decisions; raiding the stash for colours, playing with different fibres and yarns, and paging through patterns.

natural or black?

knit or crochet?

plain or variegated yarn?

i never thought i would say it, but its actually fun to make tension swatches! i've learnt the hard way in the past, it's a good idea to see how the yarn looks and feels before committing to a big project.
one thing i haven't needed to think too much about colourwise, is my BAMCAL squares. yay! i've finally caught up with the last two squares for July.

these squares were so much fun to make and look quite spring-like. just look at the inspiration in my garden...
