Ah, today I am getting my sunshine! I have windows and doors open -- just until it starts getting chilly later this afternoon, mind you.
I have been involved in a granny square swap with Debi over at Dly's Hooks and Yarns over the last few months. Last week I received from her a beautiful blue granny square, a notepad, and a couple other little gifts that seemed to disappear as fast as I opened the envelope. Thank you, Debi.
By now, Debi has posted about the squares I sent her. Her blanket is going to be huge by the time she gets it all together!
I sent Debi two regular grannies, one granny I kinda made up as I went along (upper left). I have seen them around before but I wasn't following any pattern. What really happened -- my son was hogging (LOL) the computer and I couldn't get to the printer. So I just started crocheting and that's what I ended up with; it turned out okay. The square on the bottom right is called Bea's Flower. It's from a Norwegian blog called Knitting and Some More. Some of the instructions are tough to follow, but using the picture helps a lot. I don't know if my square looks like Bea's square, but I like it.
So that's just a couple of things I've finished lately. I have one of the two baby afghans done; and, I suddenly realized last night my niece is graduating high school in a couple of months! More projects; that's okay. Keeps me out of the stores as I am trying to use stash yarn as much as possible.
Everyone has a good rest of the week!

You're welcome Renee - thanks for my squares too. :)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty grannies in your photos. I love that notebook too with the paisley pattern. I love paisley designs. It would be fun to crochet paisley patterns and join them together to make a scarf. Just need someone to come up with a some patterns.
