WiP Wednesday #3

Despite the usual progress on the usual projects, I wanted to share something different this week as to not be so boring with the somewhat repetitive pictures showing that I've done x amount more rows on the same ol' thing! So...


I found some Lion Brand Homespun odd skeins in my stash that happened to happily coordinate with each other. I'm finishing up the project today and will have it up for FO Fridays but wanted to give you a sneak peek of some of its awesomeness. I will say, no wonder this Homespum was in my stash for so long. It's nice and soft but man do I somewhat hate crocheting with it. It slows down my progress just a short bit.

Don't forget to click on the link at the top of the post for more WiP Wednesday!

  2. I have a blanket I'm making out of homespun. I hate working with it but it sure does make a nice finished product.

  4. The colors do coordinate perfectly. I love when randon stash skeins come together like that for a project!

  5. Random skeins from the stash that coordinate? That is a happy event. Looks good!

  6. Is it hard to work with the bumps? I did some market bags out of bumpy organic cotton last year and they were SUCH a PAIN!!!

  7. The colors are pretty. I have 2 skeins of Homespun and I am not sure what to do with it.

    That's a lot of it. It doesn't slide very well when you're pulling loops through for stitches so even stitches are sometimes a challenge.

    By the way, message coming your way shortly with those quick winter accessory patterns I have on a list!
