The Etsy Bloggers Street Team has joined up with Blog Carnival as a way of getting us all together. To start it all off, they've assigned a theme for our first gathering....a tour of our craft space. I had to laugh......and so did my husband. He said "If you count the magazines in the bathroom, you use the whole house!" This is so true. I have yarn, patterns, books, and magazines all over the place, especially yarn. It would have been impossible for me to organize it all in order to take a nice neat photograph to post. So, here it is....my house!


I do have these nifty little baskets and containers that I take with me wherever I'm working at the moment. Here is my latest work space - my new rocking chair in the living room. So new that I haven't found cushions for it yet. I do love my sheep skin that I found years ago at a Fiber Festival in Maryland. Currently I'm knitting a shawl with Lion Brand Homespun in Tudor. I make a lot of shawls, but I rarely wear one myself. I'll be listing it soon in my Etsy shop, so do stop by and take a look!

I think a sheepskin lined rocking chair is the perfect place to crochet!!
I had to laugh at the magazines in the bathroom comment--sounds like my house. I am mad at myself, but I got too busy to do the craft room blog thing for the blogger group. Oh well :-) I may just do one anyways, just for fun.

Your house sounds like mine. I didn't get my post done in time for the carnival but I thought about doing pictures of chairs in all the rooms. That is the good thing about fiber versus glass or ceramics and others. We (fiber/needlearts folks) can work just about anywhere and ususlly do.
A rocking chair is absolutely the best place to knit/sew/crochet! As far as books and magazines - I've run out of space and keep meaning to pull out the information that I want to keep and chuck the rest - but I know the minute I do I'll want one of the articles or patterns I've seen! Hope you have better luck!
Hehe, well you guys do share the house. Why can't it be all your workspace? ;)
I got my post done for the carnival at the last minute...literally...I submitted it exactly 1 minute before the deadline! heehee.
For collecting blogs to read later, and having one location for all of them - I use
http://www.bloglines.com - it's pretty neat.
