    New Yarn Bowl

    At a family meeting to divide some of my Great Aunt's belongings, no one wanted her China set. It was way too fussy for everyone - 3 members of the 'older' generation, 4 members of the Baby-Boomers, & 4 Millennials. They decided to try to sell it on eBay and if that failed, donate to the Salvation Army. I spoke up and said, "If no one minds, I would like to get one piece. I'd like the yarn bowl." 9 stunned stares and 1 glare (from my Mother). I persisted and got my way. Behold! My new China Yarn Bowl:

        I love that! What a fantastic idea - a new use for a very special family heirloom that you can enjoy every day.

        I also love your Nighshift shawl. I'm working on one of those now, too.

          Thank you. I’ve been working on my Nightshift shawl since she release it. I had to put it down for some birthday knitting. Now that I’ve finished those projects, I’ve picked this back up. I thought it was going to be difficult, but it is surprisingly easy.

          That is beautiful & I love the matching crochet hooks. Yarn bowls aren’t cheap, which is why I wanted the one I asked for. I know it’s breakable, but there’s family history there and it’s functional…at least to me. 😊
