Awesome! Do you do calligraphy? Because the script rocks.

Oh, some of that is gorgeous.

And makes me realize that I really could start putting together an altar.
I just need to find the right table.

I don't think there really is a too many. Projects depend on our moods, what we're interested in trying, what we need (for commissions, gifts, etc) to make, and so on.

Right now, I have:
- My giant crocheted blanket
- A lace scarf I'm designing (to be followed, if it works, with another one)
- Pair of fingerless gloves

That's just what I have actively on needles. I have a handful of others I'm in the "hmmm... What yarn would be best for this?" stage with.

Just makes me even more want to start making clay beads....

Squares are nice because you can take them anywhere with you and do a little at a time. I made all of these squares while watching my sons in dance class.

I have another one started that I work on when they are at baseball practices.

7' wide is extremely daunting. Good luck with both!

Exactly! They are easy to take anywhere. I have a bag with sections of an afghan I started for a friend. I plan to finish it someday, but I lost the pattern (argh!) when I moved.

I need to find it online again and start again. It didn't take long to do a section at all.

And the 7' is, yes. I don't know what caused me to make it that wide. It takes me two evenings (I work slow, because I get distracted) to do a row.

This is lovely. I'm not much of a crochet person (I'm more of a knitter), but a coworker's wife recently had a baby girl and I'm thinking of making a blanket. This gives me hope that maybe I could do one with squares. They seem less... daunting, on the whole. And it's a small victory when you finish one.

Instead of the 7' wide (yes. WIDE. It's going to take me AGES to finish) blanket in double-crochet I've been doing.

I just found this place (look! I don't even have an icon yet, but oh, that will be remedied shortly...) and this thread is perfect, I think, for something I'm considering.


I'm getting new glasses soon and they're more a rectangular style (wire frames, a blue-gray). I currently have waist-length hair, all the same length. I want to get it cut somewhere between shoulder and shoulder-blade length, maybe layered or something. More flattering than it is.

Anyone have suggestions/ideas?
