One Skein of Yarn

Over the weekend, I reached the end of my first skein of yarn. I was very excited! I was curious how it would be at this point--it's just about 30 inches unblocked. I'm considering, then, making it about 60 inches. The pattern is shorter, but I like a long scarf I can wrap and drape. So it will depend on how I feel.

Across the top are the sheep stitch markers I got the previous weekend at our yarn shop hop. Super-cute, huh? Oh, you can't see them? Here's a close-up:

Still can't see them? Even closer:

I was going to compare the length of the scarf with the yards of yarn I started with, but--I have lost the other two skeins!  I cannot believe it!  I know they must be in the house somewhere.  I sure hope they are!  But until I find them, I cannot be idle--I have far too many projects.  So over the weekend, I:

Wrapped Fun Fur around a wreath form to start on an Easter Wreath.  I hope to finish this one tomorrow and I will post that picture.

Tatted most of a medallion.  I am teaching my friend Heather S to tat and I wanted to see what she might run into if she started working on this.  Good thing I did, too; one shuttle was not quite enough to finish it, as you can see.  We will have to use finer yarn.  But I also learned that I won't have to teach her the fold join yet, so that balanced out.

Started and finished a Shepherd's Bush tiny Sheep necklace.  (I know, the pictures are fuzzy, sigh.)  It is so cute, just about an inch tall, and all over one.  Shepherd's Bush has several of these, and I've made a few, so I got them out to post here as well:

They are just adorable.  I know they have an Uncle Sam design for July 4th--I think I'll do that one soon.
