Last quarter of the year

Hello again!

The idea behind this blog was to post at least once a week if I have something to say.

And then I thought why not have a project on a program? I big project like a blanket. Something overwhelming that I haven't tried before. So, I search through my stash and found several balls of yarn in a nice gray shade. 

Bought them, but somewhere in the way stored them away. Now, it is time to use them.

I don't have actually an exact blanket - project in mind, the only thing I know is that I'm going to use all I have. For sure I'm going to use a join-as-you-go method because stitching is BORING!

I have started crocheting October 1st  and today I have 7 basic granny squares.


It is the basic granny square and I use this pattern from a really wonderful lady. I don't know yet how many granny squares I can get out of a ball so I do not know the exact size of the "future" blanket!  I am crocheting in a 4 mm hook and the yarn is 100% premium acrylic, 100 gr., 300m. each. I like crocheting with acrylic yarns because there is no shrinking when washing the projects in the washing machine!


This last quarter of the year also got me thinking of all those unfinished project that all crafters have... and I have many! SO I started finishing some and I will be posting soon the progress.

I have been making and attaching tassels to shawl that was stored away for almost one and a half year. 



bye bye for now!
