I like your fails because they can call become finished projects or just projects at all (namely that beautiful yarn!)

I’m guilty of having done this in the past, but a project will find its way to you :-)

Youve got a lot of pretty things going on there! Dont worry about not finding the perfect project for your yarn yet, it will come then it will be awesome. Its a shame youre not going to finish your lacy shawl, I love the look of the piece youve made.

You did so amazing things this year and only this few things are still waiting for you to make something of it or finishing it. So keep on doing what you love and be an inspiration for all your followers in 2015.

Love, Margaret

We must be sisters in spirit. I inventoried my finished projects and yarn from 2013 & 14 only to find that my yarn stash has gotten bigger, and I ordered more yesterday!!!! Re: Failure # 4, that is going to be such a lovely finished item. I love the color, yarn and pattern. I understand when a pattern gets a bit unsatisfying. I just, this a.m., picked up a project I became frustrated with last month. I have a feeling it may be put back into the ongoing pile.

The Mollycoddle yarn shawl looks lovely – is there a specific pattern please as I have some of that yarn too but am at a loss as to what to make…? Tks again & for all the Scheepjes CAL hard work – fab!!

Hi Wink,

Been following your amazing blog for about a half year and love seeing your projects and the beautiful yarns you work with. Copied off all the patterns of the quilt squares and hope to make it sometime in the future. The squares were gorgeous and the finished quilt breathtaking!

Love the pattern of the shawl you showed us in fail number 3 and was wondering if it would be possible to get that pattern. We have a group who crochets prayer shawls for a local church and I’m always looking for interesting new patterns.

You are such an inspiration and always a treat to read your blog! I also am addicted to crochet!

Blessings,
Diane
