Hello All,
I hope this finds you doing well and staying cool, The temps here have been up to the 90's with heat indexes of above 100, humidity is outrageous.
I'm working all I can and this is busy season , people are starting to travel more....
I'm doing my best to keep a normal routine going and I seem to be doing ok with it. I need normal under the circumstances. Normal keeps me grounded some what.
I have a few starts and finishes in crochet and I actually pulled out a diamond painting which I haven't done in about a year, it was relaxing and time flew by....
I'm going to do my best to link where I found the patterns and/or stitches I've used in these some are youtube and some are blog post.
I believe most I have shown so I won't show those only the newest/recent ones I've done.
This is a super scarf using the block stitch that I recently learned to do.
Next up I made my own Yarn Bobbins using dowel rods 3/8 inch
I had some yarns there were a tangled mess and decided to try and find a better way to manage them. I wound them on the hand made yarn bobbins using my old drill. crafty and frugal lol
Next is a few starts
This is going to be a Crochet Kerchief from The Crochet Crowd -
Crochet Kerchief from The Crochet Crowd, I haven't learned the decrease yet but I'll be trying to finish this one soon. Most yarns I use I get on sale or on Clearance.
next photo is of 3 more starts....
This one will be a blanket/scarf possibly vest ^ on the left with the Caron O'Go yarn under it in Chocolate Ice- on clearance $3 at Michaels. The Middle blue/grey is a tweed type yarn Barcelona Big! from Loops & Threads(Michaels Brand) also on clearance in the colorway Mist. and Last one on the right is Mainstays Grey from Walmart 1lb it's going to be a Kimono Shawl from Fiber Spider over on Youtube -
Kimono Shawl Tutorial
That's all I have for now to show, These 3 projects are probably going to be long term projects, little at a time, I'll do my best to show updates .....
Until Next Time.....
Happy Stitching and May you have smokin' needles...xxxx
Oh my your scarf is such a pretty color, your new starts are lovely, you have a gift for choosing the right color yarn for the perfect projects.
ReplyDeleteIt is warm here in Minnesota, lower 90s, we have had no humidity until today 90% at 05:00 am.
have a lovely week.
Looking forward to seeing your diamond painting again.

Thank you :) When I see yarns I try visualizing what I would do with them and if I can't come up with something I let it sit until I find something. The temps are still up as well as heat indexes, wishes for a cool down soon. I hope you have a lovely week as well.
