What’s on your Craft Table in August?

What are you working on? What should you be working on? I’m going to share my craft area each month for a more in-the-moment feel of projects.

Now this is my couch table, so I’m more likely to be working on quick, casual projects. I have my larger table when it’s more focused work, but this month is about relaxing a little bit while I focus on my “real” job.

Right now I’m in the middle of my third cross stitch by TheStitchPatterns. One thing I have done with new embroidery projects and save some money is to pull colors from my own collection rather than the colors a pattern designates. I realize a skein is less than a dollar, but I have so much thread already and I don’t need to add to that pile.

It is the middle of a heat wave in the PNW but I’m knitting. I’m planning ahead for the holidays and making a blanket for our senior dog. Some days I can get a few rows and other days I don’t even touch those needles.

Not necessarily crafty but we are also starting to journal regularly and drink water, so they take up space on the table too. Stay hydrated, y’all!

While we’re still a little ways away from the holiday season, has anyone else started with gifts?
