My improved & reorganised creative space. I always wish right towards the end, as I can see a space taking shape, that I had taken a before photo. This half of our sunroom, which has always been my sewing/yarn room, was chock full of so much stuff.
It was so unorganised that I would spend all the time I had free for crafting, looking for tools or supplies that I needed to get started, and then not actually get to make anything. A 4mm circular needle - could never find one, even though I know I've got about 5. The regular pressed foot for my sewing machine - missing, even though I only took it off last weekend when I put my zipper foot on. Madness!
So instead of my usual "tidy up", I actually organised... I put all my interchangeable needle tips back in the case, all the cables for those tips into a drawstring bag. All my DPNs into a jar, scissors all together - you get the idea!! Oh, I went in to that space so many times last night just to look. Isn't that a bit silly? But I was so proud of myself, because I got shit done.

In knitting related news: I have finished so many project in January. But all of them require some type of finishing. Ends woven in or buttons sewn on (or both). I'm hoping to go button shopping tomorrow or the next day. Fingers crossed I find what I need.
Hope you had a productive weekend too!
