Thanks you guys. It's always so nice to get nearly instant feedback on my projects. The butterfly square is awesome and soooooo easy to do. I have fallen in love with Chris Simon's patterns.

Yeah, apparently when I get good at something I'm more inclined to stick with it than I am to branch out. Though, I must admit I've spent the entire evening getting Krystal's charity daisy square down pat so that I can get at least one out to her. It's REALLY challenged me and I've frogged ALOT :( but I DID IT!

 

Thanks BarbaraJean

Okay, I know y'all thought I would never finish this (I was beginning to think that too) but I am please to announce (drum roll please)...I finished my Hexagon Afghan :yay

 

I was worried that it wouldn't be as wide as I wanted it to be but it exactly the length and width of a queen size bed (which I what I laid it on to take the photo).

 

I got the pattern from Lionbrand's website. It is made with Homespun yarn in Deco and Tudor. I love the jeweled look of it. It is really soft.

 

Here it is:

Here is a close up:

Now I can spend more time on the Breast Cancer Ribbon Afghan. I am making that one for a friend's b-day so I have a time line for that one.

Disneypal that's just fabulous looking. Nice job. :cheer:clap

 

I have completed all nine daffodils and one square with a daffodil attached. I'm taking a bit of a break right now because once I got to making corners on the square I have started, it had three extra stitches in it from a mistake three rounds back ARGH. I'll get back to it soon though.

Congratulations! You have a beautiful completed project. I can see why you love the colors so much.

Oh no! So are you going to frog back to the mistake or are you going to try to find a way to work with it?

I tried to find a way around it and it was just WAAAAY too obvious because it was three extra stitches or so, so I frogged and started over. I finished it and put aside the daffodil ghan tonight and picked up the market tote (I'm hoping to have that done for when our downtown farmers' market opens in June or July, shouldn't be a problem).
