He fights our battles

I've been busy pulling apart sweaters to recycle the yarn.  I need to get through the backlog of sweaters I have because Goodwill is having another 50% off sale this weekend.  I hope to get more sweaters for yarn then.  I'm really loving the sherbet color of this ribbon yarn.  I ended up with 450 grams of the yarn. 





Blessings by Erica Michaels Designs is finished.  I have no idea of how I'm going to finish it. 




I started a new cross stitch design.  It is Christmas Angel by MarBek.  I'm stitching it on a 14 count aida with the called for DMC colors.  I have several MarBek patterns and all the pictures of the stitched pieces are rather washed out.  And, the coverage of the floss over the fabric is rather poor. 




I have also been crocheting dishcloths.  I'm using the pattern Clean Sweep which can be found on Ravelry.  The first one I crocheted was done per the pattern.  For the other ones I then made, I changed from doing double crochets to half double crochets.  I don't like a dishcloth with holes in it.
