Okay. I didn’t make a quilt, I didn’t get 366 puffs done and instead I got a door hanging. :D But at least it’s now done.

A crazy challenge but hey, I’m a bit crazy. I’m going to try to keep up with 1 puff per day, I’ll put some scraps in a project bag so I can carry it around with me.

I’m using mainly sock yarn scraps. Yarns used are: Shibui knits sock, Malabrigo Sock, Wollmeise merino 100%, Socks that rock lightweight, Cherry tree hill supersock semisolid, Handu merinosukkalanka, hopeasäie basic, Skein sock, Fleece artist merino 2/6, Skein merino/cashmere, Hopeasäie cash, Hopeasäie Gold, Skein top draw sock, Markkalanka twisted sock, Viola sock, Lai-la-lai Yarnz merino sock, wollmeise sockenwolle twin, handu merinosukkalanka, fleece artist sea wool, dream in color starry, Araucania ranco solid.
