Blanket Projects – Baby Blaz, Day 4
The more I make these baby blankets the faster and faster they seem to work up but it will be the last one for a while. While it only took a few days to be completed, chaos at the house and a few cloudy days prevented me from photographing it sooner. Now moving onto […] more…
Blanket Projects – Baby Blaz, Day 1
Of all the baby blankets I made last year this is the one I really wanted to make. While it might have taken two years before I could start it was well worth the wait. By the colors you can surmise they’re having a boy… but since he’s a Dodgers fan that blue […] more…
Blanket Projects – Little Miss Retallack
With the completion of this car seat blanket, the summer of baby blankets comes to a close. This is one of the rare projects that is going to a home with an avid crocheter so I couldn’t just make a simple granny square blanket. Well I could have, but Tori had fallen in love […] more…
Blanket Projects – Kolbeck Blanket
Another day, another granny square blanket, but this time with a lighter weight yarn. With this blanket completed I’m down to the last baby blanket for the summer and while they’re fun… I am really looking forward to just working with size 10 thread again. […] more…
Blanket Projects – Lily May’s Blanket
So this was yet another straight forward granny square blanket and I probably only worked on it five days before it was finished. This one worked up really quickly and after finishing it with a scalloped edge it was all boxed up and ready to be shipping off to its new home. more…
Blanket Projects – Koelewyn Twins Blankets
I sort of lost track on how many days it took me to make the second blanket, but I handed both of them over to the parents to be on July 4th. While I enjoyed working with all the bright and cheerful colors all of the color changes will continue to dissuade me […] more…
Blanket Projects – Koelewyn Twins Larksfoot Blanket, Day 1-2
Starting the second Koelewyn blanket. As much as I love these colors and the pattern when working on this blanket I just haven’t been able to get into a rhythm. I figure progress on this blanket will take a bit longer than the other ones, but soon enough this one will be completed too. more…
Blanket Projects – Lily May’s Blanket, Day 1-2
I often order more yarn than I need for each specific project. I have found that when picking colors for my pillows having several colors to test with fabric and with this recent spate of baby blankets I knew it was not going to waste. This one is going to the daughter of an […] more…
Blanket Projects – Koelewyn Twins Granny Square Blanket, Day 8
Of all the things I’ve made lately, pillow and blankets alike, this one just makes me smile when I look at it. It is absurdly cheerful in coloration to the point where it makes my cheeks hurt. Now on to the companion blanket. more…
Blanket Projects – Koelewyn Twins Granny Square Blanket, Day 7
Yeah we’re ending in the darker blue is the right call… now all I have to do is add a full color repeat. more…
Blanket Projects – Koelewyn Twins Granny Square Blanket, Day 6
Green was okay, orange was not quite right… yellow is a bit bland…so I’m probably going to end on the darker blue. more…
Blanket Projects – Koelewyn Twins Granny Square Blanket, Day 5
I ended on the orange again if only to reaffirm that I do not want to end the blanket in orange. more…
