WIP Wednesday Mega Thread - What are you working on?

[morus]

Nice work!  Is this similar to Tunisian three color work?

I've been making drawstring cords with this tutorial.  It's fun, easy, addictive.

That part you see is actually crochet-on-the-double.  The other side looks the same, but with the colours reversed.

What a neat idea for a multi-coloured cord!

Thanks for the link.  I'll have to look for one of those hooks.

If you go over the the WIP Wednesday Mega Thread, you'll see when I started this blanket. (Wow, almost a year to the day!)

Now I just have a couple of ends to weave in...


What are you up to?

I'm working on a variation of the Newborn Angel Gown for my little second cousin Bree. She's due in September and will need a fancy dress

I liked the shell motif, although I changed it a bit. It is white acrylic with a rayon thread for some sparkle. I actually started it some time ago, but worked on it a bit this week. It just needs some finishing and end-weaving. I made a matching bonnet, too. Guess I ought to post some photos tomorrow

My current WIP is nearly finished. Just one and a half fin and a bunch of sewing to do.

It's this darling little seal: http://www.crochettoday.com/crochet-patterns/circus-seal-toy

I'm going to try to embroider the eyes instead of using buttons since the new owner is one year old and would probably suck the buttons right out of the stuffed toy even if I use safety eyes...

The starghan is resting at the moment since it's too hot to crochet wearing a huge afghan =D

Oooh, running a little late today, I blame my WIP!





It's going to be a granny square baby blanket made from the outside in.

What are you working on?

[muise]

this sounds very interesting, can't wait to see the final.  never heard of working it backwards

[hazelly]

Interesting!

I'm working on an Aphrodite Shawl.  (My first big project!)

how do you make a blanket from the outside in? Is there any tutorials for this available?
