So I've been busy the past 6-8 months. I've caught up on some projects and have even opened up my etsy store in the past week (while at home recovering from an upper respiratory infection) C&C's welcome. I hope to keep up this pace. I'm really enjoying making the headbands. Some of them I've crocheted others are store brought with my own handmade embellishments added. I even have a model lined up for future pictures.
Thanks for all the comments. I am now working on another blanket but this one is a continuous granny square. As for putting the squares together in different directions. I wish I could but I'm to OCD for that. Everything has to be alligned or even numbered or divisible by 2. It takes me a long time to decide on a pattern and get a project completed. I've taken out blankets that were about 3/4 completed because it didn't look right to me.
My most recent project. I am now crocheting squares and joining them rather than working a one piece pattern. Makes the work finish a lot quicker. C & C welcome.
Yesterday I gifted my auntie with her blanket. She was so thrilled. She told me she was taking it to church today to show it off. She had already been bragging about to her friends at church. I'm glad i did this for her. She's 83 years old who knows how much longer she has on this earth. I love when I make something that makes someone happy. Now working on one for my mother with the leftover yarn.
Thank you all for the kind comments. I loved making this. Probably because the person I'm giving this to will really appreciate it. To answer the comments. I made all my squares then I joined them all together. to those who want to know how to do this kind of joining. i got the info off of youtube. Here's a link:
Also check out the other videos. I love how she demonstrates. I was able to learn a lot from watching her videos. I plan to learn and make a few other types of granny squares.
