With the addition of the piano this weekend, my sewing “room” became my sewing “corner”. It is a little more compact, and the stash got sorted and rearranged. Here it is – my corner of the house:
As you can see, it is more of a knitting corner, but the sewing machine sitting there draped in my unfinished quilt top reminds me that I can sew, too. When I need to wind some yarn, I push the machine back, bring the swift forward and wind away.
And, of course, there is stash here:
and stash there:
and more on the shelves under and over the knitting library:
and in baskets on every surface:
So there it is. Bursting with inspiration and potential and all kinds of creativity.
And, now I get to listen to live piano while I splash around in all that wool. Does it get any better than this?
Gah… I just want to roll around in all that yarn! 😉 Does everyone have that RD Complete Guide to Needlework? I used that book a lot when teaching myself to knit and still refer back to it from time to time 🙂
I used it to re-teach myself to knit when the man wanted wool socks. I still haven’t made him socks, but it got me back into knitting! 🙂
Love it!!! Oh the yarn!!! Is that Velvet Grapes I see?
Our libraries have a lot of the same books too. I also have the RD Complete needlework book.;)
And I am still in awe of your ball winder! What brand is your swift?
The swift is just the Knit Picks one. It works fabulously.
I am still in awe of the ball winder too! 🙂
Yup. Velvet Grapes. And I still plan to turn it into the VIne Yoke Cardigan someday. It’s at the top of my Rav queue, anyway…
Beautiful little corner. Perhaps I’ll be inspired to pretty-up my crafting space. At the moment it’s more of a dumping ground for yarn, magazines, and works in progress 😦
