Back to crocheting
I’m back at the crafting this week. Headed on over to the local craft store tonight to buy some more black yarn for the Share a Square afghan to give all the squares a border. Remembered why I don’t like that particular store.
Most of the squares I was sent are already the same size (I was lucky), although a couple will have to have extra border to make them ready for stitching together.
My mother-in-law is already almost done with her share a square afghan. I was supposed to show her the technique for stitching squares together. Way too late! I managed to find a tutorial for her, but was supposed to do a video chat. Fail. She taught me this stuff, so I’m not entirely sure what I was teaching her …
I’ve been too preoccupied in general. I need to call my dad, my brother, respond to emails … instead here I am blogging, crocheting and watching bad TV. I turned the TV off though. This woman was buying a house (House Hunters) and her sister kept telling her she needed a man - to mow her yard, or I guess just to have one. Whatever. I love my husband, and I’m glad he’s around, but thanks, being single is quite fine as well.
Also back working on my flower afghan (those are most of the colors in the picture). Another square completed! I think I need to do some small projects next in order to have some more immediate senses of completion!
