Brasington's Ninth Law: A carelessly planned project takes three times longer to complete than expected; a carefully planned one will take only twice as long.
This is a list of the sewing, knitting and crocheting projects currently being created with pointy things. Also - those I wish to create and those with materials currently in line. I'll add it as a memory and link to it in my profile, so it will be updated as I make progress. If you want to see a completed project or a photo of the planned project, click on the name of the project. For completed project, this link will go to an entry with photos and project details.
