WIP
Working on a few of my projects this week. When I was adding the progress bars, I realized I have 6 things on the hook right now! Hi, my name is Kate, and I'm addicted to starting new crochet projects.
I'm caught up on the Granny Square-along that Blair is hosting over at
Wise Craft.

I'm still working on the one square for Week 4 because there was a discrepancy in the pattern and the video; Blair should be fixing it today or tomorrow. I'm waiting to see if I'm doing it right before I go any further.
The Project Linus blanket is coming along. I've added about 6 rows in the last week.
It's almost done! Just a couple more rows of the Shaded Dusk and I'll be done. This has been my main focus because my friend's son's birthday is July 6.

Lovely projects you have there. I have a few things on the hook myself. just lazy to do it lol
ReplyDeleteI have plenty of lazy days, too. We all have to have those days!
DeleteHi Kate you are like me I have all sorts on the go too but that's how I like it. I'm pleased you have joined the afghan cal I have just finished this weeks squares can't wait for tomorrow to see what's next. Love your blankets! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! How did you work the last two rows on last week's assignment? I'm waiting for the new video to see if I'm doing it right.
DeleteHi Kate.. Thanks for visiting my blog. I would like to say I am your newest follower as well. I have so many little projects going on right now. I just do a little this and a little that each day hoping to see what I finish first. My favorite yarn right now is Red Heart. I was stuck on Peaches and Cream for awhile but I am working on a ripple afghan for myself I went with the Red Heart in cream color. I might run out before it's finished so off to Wal-Mart I go! Very nice meeting you and hope to see more of your ideas to come! Shari
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shari! Welcome aboard. I'm the same way; a few rows on this one, a few stitches on that one. I love the Red Heart, too; both my grandmothers used only Red Heart in their projects. When I started crocheting, I didn't know there was anything else to use! And Walmart...where would we be without it? (probably a lot richer!)

DeleteDear Kate,
ReplyDeleteYour granny squares are so perfect with their yarn. And your crochets are very beautiful. you are very hardworkingand very skilled. And you like crochet just like me. I am following your blog with my mother..:))
All best wishes..
Thank you, Beck! I hope she enjoys it, too.
DeleteYour granny squares are looking nice - the colors are good together. And your two blankets are looking nice too. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Debi :-) The funny thing is I grabbed the colors at random!
DeleteThose colour combinations made me drool - so so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteMay I ask how you do the progress bars?
It's a really cool idea!
Thank you!
DeleteThe progress bars are super easy. They're pictures you upload to your blog. You can choose from several different colors and different percentages; when you make progress on an item, you just change the picture.

I downloaded all the premade sets.
I'll look for them on your blog soon :-)
