I've been missing my crochet the last few days as this weekend had other plans in store. Mainly yesterday because my husband figured "Hey, day off work, let's just sit around the house, be lazy and relax." Sounds great until he went out for something in the morning and on his way back, the brakes went to the floor on the car! Luckily he didn't hit anyone/anything and was able to pump them to get them to come back but the rest of the day was spent waiting for the car to be out of the shop and roaming the car deal test driving SUVs. We got the car's brakes fixed but I think sometime this year it's time we upgrade to a family car that's not 10 yrs old and better for our road trips!
Anyways, random life stories aside, I have updated pictures of my blanket!
Excuse the baby toys/diaper bag in the top left and laundry basket in the top right :-P |
Even though it's such a long blanket the rows go amazingly quick and I'm able to do my week's worth of color repeats in about a day (sometimes a day and another morning).
Also finished a few more squares for various other blankets that are currently WiP!
Chocolate/Light Blue for an afghan that will be a gift |
Star Overlay block for our big "family movie night cuddle blanket" |
Another for the family movie night blanket |
The blocks for the blankets are more of a "One A Week" goal rather than "One A Day" but I thought I'd include them to spice up more than the same old ripple pictures :)
Time for me to post this, get the little one settled, get my breakfast and check out everyone's updates!
