Flosstube #222 -- Not Quite a Stitching Slump...

Summary AI

Michelle, host of Romantic Tangle, returns after a month away and explains that she has hardly stitched at all, though she is reluctant to call it a slump. She has been working on Mary Elizabeth Coats' Winter Salt Box, a piece she started in March and warmed to during a Christmas in July session, but she has encountered a problem: the pattern and her grid lines no longer match up. Unable to find an error in her stitching, she has decided to continue and finish the border of stars, hoping the house and snowflakes land correctly. She also shares that she has been knitting a comfort shawl, using yarn from a Craft Warehouse clearance and a garage business liquidation sale, and has been sorting yarn by colourway while keeping things low-stakes.
