newbuzz...I was feeling restless today because it is not winter anymore, but not yet warm enough for outdoor activity. As I started to settle on cleaning the house, I came upon some yarn that was leftover from a winter project. If it were winter, I would gladly make mittens, or hats and scarves. But making those things now just feels wrong. Instead, I began to wonder about what to do with yarn in the spring. It came to me easily as I gazed at the four complimentary colors. I will do what every good granny has done with leftover winter yarn. I will make a granny-square afghan for my daughter. I have gotten two squares done already and they are lovely. This afghan will be just the right weight and weave for cool summer nights. And for added fun, I will not throw away the tidbits of yarn that I clip as I stitch the squares together. I will toss them outside for my nesting bird friends to see what kind of afghans they make for their little ones.
