One A Day Tallies #6

Yes, yes it's been a month since I posted a One A Day...yikes! Some of you may remember I was awaiting a good time to purchase more yarn from Herrschners for my ripple blanket and the good news is....I did! It's since arrived and I'm back to being able to work on my ripple blanket!

In place of working on the blanket I worked on a different One A Day project: A Hexagon Bag. That was a very quick lived project start to finish and it made for a perfect space filler while I awaited more ripple blanket yarn.

Here's the finished product!

You can be assured next week will contain a ripple update that I'm so so excited about working on again!

One A Day Tuesday Tallies #5

So my ripple blanket is still growing however I need more yarn...argh. And I'm using Herrschners brand so I'm giving it a few weeks to see if they come out with a free shipping promotion but until then I have a new One A Day! Using up some Simply Soft to make a Hexagon Bag for myself :).

The amount of projects I've made using the below colors (as much as I love them) I'm glad this will use up the last bit of each! The purple and aqua have been part of two amigurumi monkeys for baby gifts. The aqua and dark teal were a cowl. The pink was a cardigan.

So more or less these skeins of yarn have had their lifetime dragged out in many projects. It's the end of the line for this stash!

I completed 7 this week and hopefully another 7-10 next week. They whip up so quick, I love them. They're so cute!

One A Day Tuesday Tallies #4

Annnddd....it's Tuesday already!

The ripple continues to grow :)
And this week, meet Mac and Cheese...our two orange tabby cats who seem to think this, like every other blanket, is theirs.

Mac is always first to get comfy on something

Just to keep it new and fresh every week I'm starting a new, smaller One A Day project to do along with my ripple blanket.

This is the only hint picture I can give you because I thought of this idea when I was going through my stash last night at 10 pm.

One A Day Tuesday Tallies #3

Time for this week's progress on the granny ripple blanket! Got another 10 rows done (one repeat of each color) so I'm still right on track for this project!

I'm awarding myself worst picture of the week as it was hastily taken this morning (as in 5 min ago) when I remembered it was Tuesday and time for an update! Note the random baby toy in the bottom right, the miscellaneous water bottle next to it as well as the lovely pile of clutter on the couch...oops?

So with that...onward to this week's 10 rows as I chase the little one more since she's likely weeks from crawling, yikes!

One A Day Tuesday Tallies #1

I've actually never participated in Tuesday Tallies but I started a project at the beginning of the year that I'm using for it. It's my granny ripple blanket that once, finished will go on our bed in the master bedroom!

I'm aiming for 10 rows per week (two rows of each color). The picture I have is actually a week behind because I have done two repeats of color but it's the best quality picture at the moment :) Enjoy!

The blanket (pattern and yarn) actually came in a kit from Herrschners but I've altered it to make it wider and longer (and I added in the brown). After this one is done, I've got yarn lined up to do another (smaller) version of it for someone, not to be mentioned at the moment, for a Christmas gift this year. That's right, I'm planning Christmas gifts already! Trying to get ahead of the game :)
