Read Post #613 (52 Projects in 52 Weeks!)

[tralee]

Ok I called myself adding a pic of my FO's for this week, but I can't figure out how to make it show in the post. I finished the pink & green scarf Sun morning. Then cast on the black & grey hat right afterwards. Finished it off Wed evening and started on the red one. Finished the red & grey Sat afternoon.

Your hats and scarf are super! You're well on your way to meeting your goal.

 

I have a few things on my hook now. I'm trying to finish my tiny teddy bear first. Then, we'll see which UFO is the lucky pick. I probably have more than I need to finish for the year, but I'm sure I will still start others.

I would like to join. I have started a crochet journal for this year to see how many things I can make in a year. This cal should keep me on track.

Hi Diane. I am going to repeat my goal from last year to finish up all my ufo's. I didn't make it, but I knocked out a lot of them. I still have 38 taking up space in my house. They are not all crochet or knitting. A big portion of them are quilting and cross-stitch projects. I am a serial starter in all craft mediums.

 

Currently, I am working on:

1. pineapple doily-crochet

2. Rebecca doll-knitting

3. Follow the Leader-quilting

4. LTK-knitting

 

The doily is my daily focus piece and I am rotating through the others. I may continue to add different ufo's into the mix to keep from getting bored.

Ok I'm in. Im going to try the 52 in 52 also most of them are going to have to be done before July as that is when the baby is due but I have tons of time until then. And more than half of them are going to badrhinogillett for her charity.

 

Right now I have to finish a NY Giants Hat for my dad that just got frogged back to like the 10th row cause it wasnt turning out the way I wanted it to. And I have to finish the two preemie blankies I have started. I also have to make a duck for my future MIL (its a joke between her me and her best friend) and I will probably make a second one to donate for the older kids (also badrhinogillett's charity).

Mary and Leanne!!!!!!

[a_stitchintime]

Well, hello there, Scoob!

Glad you are here!

[tahlara]

Hello! It's great to see some old faces here.

 

Things was hectic last several weeks so I took a break from Crochetville until things settle down. Now I have a lot of spare time where I can work on my projects.

 

5252 - I love your scarf and hats! It's fate that bring you to this cal. Just saying...

 

Will it be bad if I counted a FO that I started on 12/27/09 and finished on 1/2/10 ? It was my mom's birthday gift, a pair of pedicure socks.

 

I realized I need to start a new project soon. I don't have a portable project for work. (Re-edited: I decide to use the LTK squares as a portable project instead.)

[makeene]

I'm in!

 

Between the 12 Afghans I have to make, the slippers, scarf and hat I want to make, a dog sweater for the little dog, snowflakes and ornaments for niece I can easily pull 52 for the year

Hi Michelle

[vonnie]

I finished one lapghan for the hospital, on to the next:cheer

[autumn_nights84]

Vonnie, that lapghan is gorgeous! What pattern did you use??

 

Alright, I have a list of just over 30 projects that I need to get finished by the end of March fortunatly most of them are small projects, but still after that I can work on some bigger projects, but I think that I might actually meet my goal this year

It is just a standard ripple, I changed colors every row, gives it that one color on one side and one color on the other...I love that look:crocheting Thanks for the compli:hugment

[CLLinda]

52 projects seem more than I can handle. I'll keep track this year and see how much I actually do.

I also love the look. I will have to try that. What do you do with all the ends?!?

[Mandii]

I agree! Vonnie I LOVE your lapghan!

[a_stitchintime]

:clapVonnie! Very pretty!

 

My project for this week is to strip the wallpaper from my bathroom. At least the one I need to finish;)

You have to work them in, but I do it as I go.... Thanks

[tahlara]

Nice lapghan, Vonnie!

 

Shame on me, I started another project - a cowl with caron simply paints in pastels. It was going to be one of my portable projects.

 

Off to work on 2nd wristwarmer, about 1/3 done. I also am going to work on an UFO - a crocheted blanket made with Joanne's sensation boucle, my own design.

 

Side note: Ok, good to know it's okay to add the pedicure socks to the FOs list.

 

Side note 1: I am so excited to see so many people in this CAL. I am sure many of us can accomplish our goals this year!
