I’m currently dealing with a mild case of start-itis. As well as the cupcake hat I cast on last week:
There’s also a crochet hat in the making, using some new Starlight yarn with reflective thread. I ‘need’ it for going running in the dark, you see, so I had to start it.
With flash so you can see the shiny bits
If I’m honest, these are both procraftination because I’m reluctant to start the sleeves on the baby Flax Light. So tiny. So fiddly. So…possibly needing a brand new-to-me technique that scares me a little bit.
I really should just jump in and get on with it. But at least I’ve done some sort of crafting every day of November so far – I’m pretty proud of that! With only 2 more days to go I’m confident that I’ll meet this month’s goal no problem.

Goodonyermate !
I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel with my brioche-etc shawl. Just as well, because I’m going BONKERS with it. Won’t do another shawl – takes too long. I get bored.
You’re cleverer, Hannah, doing small things.

That’s generally why I have multiple WIPs on the go at the same time: whatever big thing I’m working on + some small ones when I need a break from doing the same thing over and over again.

Way to go you! How do you like the reflective yarn? I ordered some from Hobbii but found it a little rough.

It is rougher than I expected, but I was planning to give it a good soaking in the hope that that might soften it up.

Reflective yarn is a thing? That is really cool and now I want to make myself a hat for winter walks. The cupcake hat is really cute. I am all about putting off working on a sweater too.

That’s what I thought when I saw it! “This is a thing?? I must have it!”.

I’ve done some runner’s gear with the reflective yarn before–it’s so fun!
