August newsletter from CreativeTien.com - more machine knitting ideas.
Aug 17, 2021 12:07 am
Dear creative friends,
It is almost Fall time. Time to plan ahead for winter holiday crafting projects. Maybe set up a system to record all your creative projects either with a basic notebook or digitally.
Now is a good time to take inventory of your yarns, stock up when the yarn is still cheap in summer, collect project ideas you want to try this fall and winter (Pinterest, IG...), and really organize your craft room. Time to donate the supplies you will never use, and clear up the space for something you truly love.
Check out our recent videos below from the CreativeTien Youtube channel.
Enjoy the last few weeks of summer!
