I've been working on this pretty regularly over the last few days. As always I love how fast crochet works up, especially for something big like a blanket. I'm getting used to this yarn a bit more, and I really like how it works up. It sticks to itself a lot so it doesn't go... Continue Reading →
One of my goals for this month was to start a crochet blanket, and I finally got around to it this week. You might recognize this yarn from a previous blanket attempt using Tunisian crochet. It is still not quite my favorite yarn to work with, but regular crochet seems to be much easier on... Continue Reading →
I've been so obsessed with my tee knitting that I had a hard time finishing up this project. But I finally pushed myself to wrap up the border and get all my ends woven in. Overall I'm pretty happy with how this one turned out. It is definitely a scrappy, stash buster of a project,... Continue Reading →
Hopefully this will be my last Granny Blanket update before it is finished. I tried out a simple spike stitch border pattern, and I liked it enough to keep going. Now I'm about halfway finished with the round. I get frustrated sometimes with crochet because I have to take lots of breaks to avoid injuring... Continue Reading →
It's granny blanket day! I finished one border row since last week. The project is at a good point now. Either I can call it finished now, or I can add one more border row I have been planning. I think this weekend I will try out the stitch I have in mind. If I... Continue Reading →
It is Thursday, the unofficial day to check in on my granny blanket! There's big news this week: I managed to finish the body of the blanket and start in on the border. Once the white granny-stitch row is done I think I want to add another row or two in another stitch, but otherwise... Continue Reading →
I missed a week of progress updates on my blanket because I was too busy showing off my Fluff Nugget fixes last week. There's quite a few new rows since the last time you've seen it. I really like this particular section, especially the way the browns fade into each other and are offset by... Continue Reading →
There's not a lot of progress to show on my blanket this week, but I did at least add a couple rows. I honestly haven't spent as much time crocheting or knitting this week. I'm not sure why that is, but I am not worried about it. Hobby interest always fluctuates a bit, and in... Continue Reading →
It's time once again for my weekly blanket update, and once again I'm in shock that I keep working on it even though it is summertime. In fact I've managed to make a fair bit of progress since last week. I enjoy the fact that this is such a mindless project, and unlike the miles... Continue Reading →
I'm proud of myself that I still made some progress on my blanket this week. I've definitely slowed down but at least I've managed to add a few rows. Every time I finish off a ball of yarn for this project it makes me very happy. It is starting to get to a reasonable size... Continue Reading →
Here's this week's update on my granny square blanket. I haven't worked on it too much since I've been spending almost all of my time working on my Wingspan. I did at least manage to use up the last of the yellow scrap yarn from my stash. The blanket is growing nicely and is almost... Continue Reading →
It's time for my weekly Granny Blanket update. I've slowed down on this project a bit as expected now that the weather is warmer. That doesn't mean I've stopped completely though. After my experiment of using DK yarn held double worked so well, I decided to use that trick again. This time I was using... Continue Reading →
