Normally, this would be a major crafting weekend for me because in the US we are celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, which means a three day weekend for me. But, of course, the stars were not aligned correctly and instead I’m battling a heck of a nasty cold! I literally languished on the couch all day yesterday and did zero crochet or jewelry stuff or anything! Hopefully, things will be better today. There is much crafting to do!
