Last week I realized that I was skipping a stitch in the repeat of this afghan. I had to frog 7 rounds. It was so painful. Last night I finally caught back up to where I had ripped it out at. I need to finish up the 2nd skein and 2 more skeins before the end of the month to meet my monthly deadline. I want to finish
this afghan in 3 months time.
I finished a few more squares for my blue afghan. I'm following the pattens in
this book, however there are a few typos in it. After I make all of the blocks I will post a list of all of the typos (like there is a ch7 when it should say ch1).
I made 2 more charity hats for
Click for Babies: Period of Purple Crying Caps. The
striped hat pattern was designed by my friend Cindy. It was a very easy pattern, then I made the flower from on elf the patterns in
this book. The
twisted crochet cable hat was a little bit more challenging to make, but not necessarily hard. It's not a hat for beginners.
This article was recently published about the local chapter / leader of this charity. You can see some of my hats in the photo. Here is the
charity's Facebook group if anyone is interested.
Earlier this month, or was it last month, I was invited to a moms' night out where we painted flowers. The instructor showed us some techniques, then she wanted us to use our imaginations to create our own unique painting. This was mine. I was invited to an impressionistic paint night happening next week. I can't wait!
Then on Wednesday I had some time to paint outside while my kids were at school. This painting isn't finished yet. It needs a little something in the upper lefthand corner, but I'm still thinking about what that little something is/will be.
Do you guys remember my crochet hook case? Well it was featured on Illuminate Crochet this month.
Here is the blog post.
