Square Swap (For Crochet/Knitting)

Bit · 01-02-2010, 02:59 PM

I can piece the pink and green afghan, Arwen, unless someone else wants to. If anyone wants to make more than one square for it, I can also make enough extra to make sure we have another full row.

I carry my yarn in the bag they sacked it in at the craft store, but I only take it to the laundromat. When I was taking thread crochet everywhere, I did use zipper bags to keep the thread and project together and clean in my bag.

Progress: Four squares done, fifth halfway. Mine are all standard granny squares but I change the color emphasis from square to square, since I started running out of gold already. *eeep*

Sweet. If everyone who is doing a pink/green square or two will send theirs to Cath along with their square for her, that would be swell.

I have two done and one almost done. Halfway through the next-to-last row.

We still have two folks who have not joined the Yahoo list. Adele, who I know has been crazy busy, and Novela. I haven't heard from her. Oh Novela! Are you out there? Are you still in?

I just posted two pictures in my gallery of squares. One is the third one finished. The other is the fourth one started.

Hi everyone!

Arwen those look great!

Mine are done except for weaving in the ends and trimming.

Mine are done in a grand (and so far successful) attempt to avoid sewing my sweater together. I finished knitting the sweater weeks ago. It is sitting here right next to me. I take it to work incase I have time to work on it. But it seems I don't have time. I do however have time to do granny squares! (and read, start the pen pal project, play on face book , read here etc)
I think I may be procrastinating a bit with this.
