I'm doing a double Irish Chain in shades of brown; a double Irish Chain in scraps; a Baby Rings Mile a Minute in Caron SS; an H bag for the Vanna's Choice contest and a Prairie Star for a friend. Oh, and I'm adding a shawl. :hook

Wow.. I haven't been here very long. and I have yet to finish a blanket. But I love to come here daily and read all the posts!! It puts a smile:D on my face. I keep having other project that keep coming up so I haven't gotten back to my saltines. Maybe by February..??:eek

I really enjoy everyone here!!:hug

 

Michele

 

Just hop on in whenever you feel like. No pressure in here :D

 

Morning all. Here is a picture of the finished ATW, version 2. It is nice and warm. :D

 

th_100_1617.jpg clickable

 

Oh wowza!! Wish I'd done mine like that now :lol It's gorgeous and I adore the colors :clap

 

Tracy I really like how you ATW turned out.

 

I think I have all the garden saltines made. I have about a row and a half left to sew together and then it will be time to do the border.

 

That went pretty quickly didn't it? Great job :clap

 

Uh, that's soon to be 6 :lol I decided I wanted to make ME a shawl for our cruise in 2 weeks. I tend to be a freeze baby and I like the idea of a shawl. I've been eyeing the Angelika pattern, then I found one I like better, this one. I dragged DBF to Michael's last night (I really needed another 2 skeins for my H bag for the Vanna's contest!) and picked up in Vanna's Silver and Colonial (pretty sure it's that one) blue. I got those planning on doing the Angelika. Now I'm debating doing these for the Bead Shawl. I'm thinking the Silver Blue for the body and something different for the edge in the Colonial Blue. I saw it on Ravelry and someone did it in a kinda rainbow fuzzy yarn and it was so pretty. I'm planning on a quick dash to Joann's for the beads today, so I need to hurry up and decide :think

 

Oooh I love the silver blue in Vanna's. That's what I'm using for a baby blanket for the contest :yes

 

Tracy - you ATW version is very nice!

 

Let's see...we have....

 

Wendy the Enabler

Cara the Creator

Me, the Enforcer

Linda the Caregiver

Tabby the Icemaker

Jimeny crickets! Y'all are having a rough winter. Yeah move in here. It was 34* all day yesterday and it's 61* right now. I really wish it'd make up my mind :wlol

 

Starting the 2nd round of the border on the GT today :yay Was gonna do my floors today but I'm too stiff so I think it'll just be a crochet day for me after basic chores :D

Sweet pea, you have a newborn! You're probably still recovering from the delivery and a bit sleep deprived. Take care of yourself first, we'll still be here :hug

 

Ok I want to join but I received a message that JulieKay is not receiving PM's. Is this correct or can someone tell me what I did wrong?

I've chosen It Takes a Village.

 

Julie isn't doing the Saltine counts right now. Mary (Skysmom) is currently tracking the saltine smackdown. If you're joining the smackdown, just post how many solids and bi-colored squares you've done. Have fun :hook

Oh, Tabby. You just reminded me of one of the reasons I moved to Georgia and why I don't really want to move back to the upper midwest. Stay safe and warm.

Erin, just take care of yourself and little Alex. Get as much rest as you can when you can. We'll still be here when you're feeling better.

 

I'm working on a Christmas stocking today. I've got all the squares crocheted, so that just leaves hiding all the tails (:yuck) and putting it together.

Cara~I see you need rug yarn. Any rug yarn? Is it all the same? I was given a skein of red still in the plastic but i'm not sure how old it is & if they've changed it any. It is very thick & almost seems kinda like a rope. I dunno. :think But if it sounds like anything you'de use i'll get it to ya after I get my skis waxed & tuned. :D

Yep, still always need that rug yarn :D They're all the same as far as this project is concerned. Any amount too. Even if it's just a yard or so it'll be helpful. I really need to pull that rug back out and get to work on it. Need to probably join the RAD CAL for motivation :lol I'd appreciate any bits you have but wait til it thaws :wlol

I know it's a full skein still in it's plastic. I will get it out hopefully by the end of the week. :yes

 

I need something for motivation too but a CAL just ain't cutting it. :no Maybe I need to pick up drinking, that might just help. :party:lol

Hi Happy House Ladies. :) It turned into a very long day - Maggie and Zoe must have thought they were orphans. ;) I ended up spending most of the day dealing with parent issues and didn't get home until after 7...and I have a horrible time driving after dark. :eek

 

I'm going to catch up on posts, have a glass of wine and crawl into bed. Thanks for being here once again. :manyheart

Cara, I got gifted some rug yarn that I have no idea what to do with. Would you like it? There are 6 oz of buttercup (Woolworth brand), 2 oz of yellow (Caron brand), 2 oz of rust (Woolworth brand), and 1 1/2 to 2 oz of steel gray (Aunt Lydia's), and maybe 1 oz of brown (no label).
