WOYWW canvas capers and instant gratification

Mmm, did that grab your attention? Maybe.
Once again, on account of it's Wednesday, I present my "desk" for your perusal.


I've just started recycling this canvas. The "right" side was just not looking "right". 
Perhaps I will show you that side next time. Already I am much happier with the "wrong" side. I don't know what will happen next, inspiration is elusive at the moment.
 
And this is where the "instant gratification" comes in ...
Beanie (from last week) is finished. It only took a few days to make which is nice when I want everything done yesterday.


And, now, because I am sooooo busy sitting here, staring into space, waiting for inspiration to strike, I think you should visit Julia at the Stamping Ground
and she will explain why today is WOYWW.

    Ohhh that beanie is a beautiful. I like the canvas and my eyes are not spotting a big difference between left and right. But then again my eyes!!!! Often it is the little details that make all the difference, I am sure it will turn out beautifully. I have one of your canvas as proof.

    Yes, I am now collecting vegemite lid rings, bread bag clips, drink bottle pulls. DH thinks I am slowly morphing into a crazy hoarder person!!!

    I love using the 'wrong' side of things, far more interesting.
    The beanie is very cute.
    Happy WOYWW!

    Tee hee. That title is definitely an eye catcher!

    Your hat is beautiful -- look at all the different colors. And I wouldn't think a project as detailed would give "instant gratification". Just goes to show that I need to step up my knitting game!

    Happy WOYWW

    I love that hat! How did you do it so fast? I am working on a butterfly scarf--it is on my desk today--but I think it's going to take at least a month! Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #36

    Inspiration will strike when you least expect it, I'm sure. Can't wait to see your canvas when it does.
    Love the Beanie!!

    I'm in awe of you crafters who can play with so many crafty projects at the same time. I ADORE that frame AND the darling little beanie! I don't think, with your talents, that you will have to wait too long for inspiration to strike again!

    Have a wonderful week! Darnell #132

    A lovely piece of knitting. I do like fair-isle patterns. I'm sure it will be an asset when next winter comes around.
    I'll try to remember to pop in again to see how the canvas progresses. Kate x #97

    Well done on completing your knitting so quickly. I am intending to work on a canvas this week as well - but I'm just going to cover it with fabric to make a notice board.

    Well the 'wrong' side is looking good to me - let it sit for a bit, and things will start to bubble I'm sure! Lovely beanie!! Belated happy WOYWW...
