Catch Up On Crochet #18

I’ve gotten a few things done since last time. I have a few finished items and a few WIPs. I’ve done a few hats. Mostly working on these before work, in the car. I did another large size market bag. And a boho cardi. I have a few things I’m working on… Almost done with this hat, just have to attach the pompom. Which is one of my least favorite things to do. When this grows up it will be a cowl. I also did a video of this: https://youtu.be/8tct8G2UOvY Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #18

Hopefully you all had a good three weeks. Mine were about normal, now that I’m back to traveling for work. I’ve finished a couple more bags, so I’ll start with showing those… These are the larger size, and I really like the way the variegated colors came out. Both are I Love This Cotton from Hobby Lobby. It took about 1 and 1/2 skeins of yarn to make these. So, those are my only finishes this time. On to WIPS. I’ve got a few of those to show you guys. First up, Boho Sweater… So, basically its a big granny … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #17

This is where I was last time I showed you… And this is where I am now… Basically I’m doing 3 to 1. Three of the teal to one of … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #16

Catch Up On Crochet #15

I’ve had a busy three weeks since last time. I did manage to work on some stuff though. So last time I showed you guys some bags that I’d been working on. I did a couple more of those and started making the larger size that I mentioned. I actually ran out of yarn for the larger size, so I worked on what I could until my order arrives and I can finish them. The blue one is the farthest along, I just have to do the handle rows. The red one is a little over halfway done, and the … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #15

So, as with everything else, I’ve been pretty busy. I don’t have a lot to show you guys, but I’ve got a couple finishes and a good start on a new project… Finishes first… I’ve gotten two more market bags done! Yay! And I ordered some more cotton yarn to be able to make some more, and a larger size as well. Check out my latest unboxing video to see what I got… https://youtu.be/cgvEqVDhlvQ Okay, so something new? This will be a throw when it’s done. I’m using I Love This Yarn from Hobby Lobby. The colors are Stonewash Teal … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #14

Lucky number 13… So I’ve done a few things since last time. I did finish my 10 Hat Not Hate hats that I sent out a couple weeks ago. So there’s that. I did a couple light weight baby blankets… And I decided on a market bag pattern that I’ll do in a couple sizes for shows…. This is the small size, I think I’ll do another size about 5 inches wider as well. Just not sure how many of each I want to make up. Maybe 6? What do you guys think? They are 100% cotton… Here’s my latest … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #13

Okay, so I have a couple finishes to show you guys this time. I showed you the beginning of this blanket last time. So this is where I was, I was waiting for more yarn that I ordered to arrive… And here it is finished… Each color block is a skein of yarn. I used Paintbox Super Chunky. This is 8 1/2 skeins (the half is the white border that I did 2 rows of). I think that is my only true finish to show… So I started making a top…. I have one side complete and am working on … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #12

Catch Up On Crochet #11

Another 3 weeks has gone by. And what do I have to show for it? In crochet? Not too much. But, I do have something! Since everyone is on the Granny Square kick, I thought I’d join in. It’s a bit larger than a baby blanket, more like a lap throw. I made this with Paintbox yarn. https://youtu.be/aayXnAO5QY0 I also have a start on another blanket… I may finish this one up today… this is also made with Paintbox yarn… The scarf that I showed last time? I think I’ve decided to frog it out, and make it much wider … Continue reading Catch Up On Crochet #11

Wow I’m on #10 for crochet posts already. That’s 30 weeks of posts… Anyway, I did not do too much to show you this time. A couple finished projects and a WIP. So, I still have just a couple more headbands to do to finish what I wanted to have ready and here are a few of them… And this is my current WIP, it was going to be a cowl, but is becoming a scarf… I recently ordered some yarn online and below are the unboxings that I did of them… https://youtu.be/6Vhqlxo_QIw https://youtu.be/2POrETFT9Ag So what do you think?
