Tuesday Tallies One Day Late

Hello All Due to a day of fighing the flu, I missed posting for One a Day, Tuesday's Tallies as referenced on Gingerbread Girl's blog . So I am doing it today... It has been quite a busy week of crocheting for me. I finished the cowl below for my daughter and was quite please with how easy it was to do. I went out and loaded up on yarn in an array of fine colours to start my newest project which is a holiday bunting for my daughter who attends Uni in the UK. It is to decorate her hearth in December. Thank you to Attic 24 for the inspiration for this project. The start of the bunting Then in the meantime we were given the news that a family member gave birth to a preemie at 29 weeks. He is doing fine and will be okay. He is only 3 lbs. So I just had to stop and make something for the little one. I am sending this off to Australia this week... So I ...

Yarn Joy

So today I was browsing through the local craft store flyer to find that all their yarn is on sale! Yes pure joy! So excited to say the least. So off I went over the noon hour and bought just enough to start a new project. I thought it would best if I had some sort of a plan of what I will make in the coming months before filling up my basket in the store. Since the cooler temps have arrived, I will be making a cowl for my daughter. She asked if I could make her one and had described it as longer and being able to double it up around her neck....well it just happened I had recently come upon this pattern Soft Stitch Cowl posted so kindly by Crochet in Color. Here is the colour I have chosen for the cowl I will post my progress in the coming days.. Oh and I have decided to be part of Tuesday's Tallies . What better way to work on a large project than to do one piece one day at a time. To be encouraged ...

Autumn View and Crochet

The colours of Autumn seem to be diminishing as the leaves fall from the trees. This view has now lost its lustre but we were able to capture it with our "guard" dog in the picture. Thats our Benji who doesn't want to miss anything. I continue to work on the bunting for my daughter's room at Uni. I decided to spell out Merry Christmas with it now so I will need to do quite a few more. Since I have to have many things on the go, I have started some granny squares to eventually be an blanket. This is the first time I have really tried my hand at them and they are fun to make.
