Quarantine Knit Show
Thanks to my knit friend Mary for suggesting I join her Instagram group #QuarantineKnitShow. This has really helped me pass the time and review my past and current crochet/knit projects during quarantine.

Here are Mary's parameters to participate:
Hey friends, I’ve been thinking about community in this difficult time, how important it is, and how to keep it going while we’re social distancing. I’ve also been knitting a lot, which is actually par for the course 😉, so I have an idea to try something new.
I’ve decided to start an online Quarantine Knit Show on Instagram. Everyday on my feed I will post a picture or video of me wearing one of my hand knits, and I invite you to join me! Let’s fill our feeds up with our beautiful faces and hand knits!
Please join me on IG and look for me @marybeezo. You can also click on #QuarantineKnitShow and even follow it so you can see everyday what people are posting.
Just post a pic of yourself wearing your hand knit sweater, shawl, mitts, hat, socks, whatever, and hashtag it #quarantineknitshow
Don’t have a lot of hand knits? That’s ok; post a pic of you with your WIPs!
Don’t knit? That’s ok too! Post yourself with one of your makes. Crochet? Sewing? Embroidery? Weaving? Hand lettering? Cooking? Yes, yes, yes and yes!
Lets turn this Quarantine Sh*t Show into a Quarantine Knit Show!!! I’m starting tomorrow, friends. Who’s in???!!!
I'm so in, Mary! Thanks for inviting me! In fact, I'm 17 days in! Here are a few of the items I've shared in the past weeks:
 |
| Warren Zevon said, "Enjoy Every Sandwich." Truer words were never said! |

These masks were so amazing, they were no doubt a source of some fun even in that dark time of crisis, That COVID era is no doubt unforgettable and I will always remember the struggle we all been through, from small casual outings to work cycle of jobs, all were affected and we all could only spectate that horrible situation, I remember when I was not even able to go on school and taking my online classes and had to avail the online class provider site to take my classes on time. Thank God that era ended and we are back to normal life activities.
