Nothing wrong with Ravelry-surfing!! Mojo will return, and/or new
inspiration will strike. Don't let your knitting and weaving be
taskmasters..

Re: I spy
I really like Fruity Knitting too -- it's the only knitting podcast I ever
watch. Particularly enjoy the not-American perspective.

Re: Brain totally dead
Random project browsing has just led me to order a ton of Rowan Felted tweed for a project.? Yikes.
Random anything is dangerous for me.

Brain totally dead
This is unusual for me. I am usually quite organized with my craft
projects. But right now I am so discombobulated that I seem unable to work
on anything.

Re: Two questions
Yep, I took mine in. Haven’t regretted it, though I have put on a bit of weight so hope it still fits. Being 49, I may be self-heating enough not to need it this winter.

Re: Two questions
Bohus buttons are usually very small and light. Like small mother-of-pearl
or plastic shirt buttons. Nobody wants buttons competing with the design.
So I’m not too worried about that. I could do

Re: Two questions
Thank you for the thoughts.

Re: Two questions
Jaya,
1.? On the buttonhole issue, all of the ideas here seem fine to me, but I'd probably do the fabric or ribbon, mostly because it would be easily reversible.

Re: Two questions
Jaya,
If it were me, I would just use matching sewing thread and needle and reinforce the existing buttonhole. You could easily hise the thread at tge backside.

1. I found that the knitted buttonholes at the waist of my knitted/woven
