Feeling Lucky?

It was way past my bedtime as a 3rd shift worker, but I stayed up until the end. Thanks for the ideas when asked. I’m pleased and I think the birthday recipient will be too!

The never ending blanket is finally done!

I have been working on this baby blanket since January. I needed it done before I leave for South Korea in 2 weeks, to give to my brother for his new baby, and I made it! But damn did I ever feel like it was never going to end! 😂🥴

I wanted to make a hat to go along with it because i have a lot of yarnleftover, but I'm not sure if have it in me to start something new.

Chocolate bar for scale 😂

WIP - Please tell me these colors look good together?

My brain said “Yes we can!” complete a 6 day start blanket as a gift for a family members birthday. I’m now on day 11 🙃

On that last minute grind now and I’m feeling like these colors don’t look well together. Please tell me I’m wrong, I debated the colors for the longest time

[FO] First big ol' blanket

Final dimensions: 97"W x 92"L

I was sure I was going to be so over this long before I was done, but the opposite actually happened. I kinda never wanted it to be over. I did come to a couple potential stopping points and was happy to decide those times to continue. 😁 I worked on this on and off for about six months, lots of off. It worked up super fast.

I'm very excited to make some afghans now and each row is going to feel super fast. 😄

I used this Play Hookie With Me pattern, BLO only on first row of each color change, not every row.

I used I Love This Yarn in Linen, Spa (light blue), Graphite (dark purple), and Blue Spruce (dark blue) and Yarn Bee low pilling in Bruschetta (dark orange).

One Month’s Progress

All 81 circles have been completed. Twenty three have been squared off with the four rounds of white. Progress is going to slow down at this point since adding the white is more tedious than the fun of making the colorful circles. But I do have a few other WIPs to use as a break from crocheting the white rounds. My goal is to complete at least four granny squares per day.

Finally found a way to work on my blanket

https://preview.redd.it/lbsma5xbk72h1.jpg?width=6000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6c288ffd07fe40e90480f3e70c8d7fe7e9fd49a0

I've been struggling to work on my double bed sized blanket as now I am getting to the end it is incredibly heavy. I also noticed the starting end was beginning to pill a bit from constantly dragging about on the floor as I worked on it.

How it took me so long to realise I could pop it in to one of heavy duty supermarket "bags for life" and just pull out the top bit I don't know. I started this on the 2nd February so it's been a problem for a good few weeks.

Luckily this works really well - I just have to remember to flip rather than turn at the end of a row otherwise it turns in to a twister.

Show me your Phoenix or Charlotte’s Universe blankets!

I’m considering diving into one of these blankets, but I need to find the perfect one/color-combo, especially since it’s a long project! One that just makes you way, “That’s the one”! (Like finding the right guy! LOL)

TIA!

spoke flower blanket

back with another blanket, this time i made the spoke flower blanket by the crochet fix. it turned out 42 inches at the widest points. i followed the directions for the more rounded petals and i used 4.5mm and 5mm hooks. yarn is lion brand mandala in the color cupid and loops & threads luxe merino in the color white. perfect mindless pattern that could go on forever. this one is a baby shower gift, i hope they like it 😁🩷🌸
