Miscellaneous Afghan CAL

[jmccrochet]

I finished my green and pink blanket. Well mostly... Now it's just the end weaving, but it's finished enough for me to mark it off of the list! Just ignore the white ends on the front. I'm a forth of the way through weaving in ends but since it's not something on the top of my list, it's getting done very slowly.

 

 

That's very pretty!

ARGH. SO, I noticed that my mile-a-minute panels on the Baby Rings afghan arent' lining up this a.m. I ripped one joining out and have it repinned to re-whip stitch and then I have a second to rip out. please cross your fingers that it's just the two ends that are a problem. Please?!?!

Oh no!! I hope that its a real quick fix for you!!! Kiwi and Dreams ~ love your afghans. Those neons really pop! And Dreams you've been really busy lately! I managed to get my first panel of my son's afghan! Yay!

Thank You!

Yep, I've been real busy with hook and yarn. Being on bed rest for so long gives me lots and lots of 'free time'. I'd go bonkers without my crochet.

I go back to the Doctor this morning. Hopefully I will be put on partial bedrest but I don't think that will happen. I seem to be the same, if not a little worse.

I have decided to finish my Yellow and Blue ebay afghan early. I'm going to try to start a prayer shawl ministry. There is a lady I knw who is in need of one immediately and although this is wider than necessary I think it would make a nice prayer shawl. I'd really like to try to get it finished today.

That is so fun!! Congrats on a great job!

That looks like a very complicated project, Joyce. I wish you luck with it. It's going to be pretty fantastic when you're finished!

Can you tell me which one on the list in the first post this one is, please?

[jmccrochet]

That's going to be gorgeous!

YAY! I'm making progress!

 

Here's the Striped Cable Afghan I've started:

 

 

I haven't actually finished a full stripe yet, but I really wanted to attach them together so that I could see how the finished product would look. It's a little harder to crochet the stripes now that they've been put together (my yarn gets crossed!) but it's worth it to see it all coming together. I enjoy a challenge!

 

I'm really liking this project so far. Now that I've memorized the steps to the pattern, it's going much quicker. But, it's still going to take quite a while before this fits my queen sized bed!

Thanks for your encouragement all. I am not going to getting around to the fixing until Sunday (MAYBE Saturday) as I am working second shift this week and I just don't have the time before I got into work. I'll keep ya' posted

I have 3 afghans-in-progress and I am bored with all three! Maybe if I join here I will get motivated to finish them? My goal is to definitely finish the one this spring. I may frog the other and the 3rd will be years to finish as it is tiny squares.

Everyone is doing an awesome job. What beautiful work you all have done.

I LOVE the colours that you are using in this afghan. I think pink and green go so well together - and the purple and white just bring it together so well. Lovely and bright.

You're welcome to join in. I'll just need to know how many you'll definitely be joining with and the names of your afghans.

Kiwikitty, I like your granny. I've found, for myself, that if I weave the ends in as I go I'm not as frustrated at the end. I hate weaving ends myself, but, since, I like the way the different granny ghans look I do it that way.

 

I don't get as many squares done each day, but, I only have to weave in the ends that I use to sew them together when I'm done.

 

Everyone's ghans are so pretty. I have made a little more progress on the Plum ripple ghan so I should be able to post a finish pic by next week.

I love this pattern. Could you share where you go the pattern. Thanks

Here is a afghan that is a Bridal shower gift today. I finished it last night.

It's beautiful raylynn! But I don't see this on the list. Was I supposed to add this and missed it?

Well, I frogged three strips of my MAM afghan, am going to use the 'sunrise sunset' pattern from Caron (free) to make the blankie for my friend's daughter, Olivia. I'll post a picture when I get some done. (Barb, this is not new). But I did start a 'rainbow rows' for my daughter's friend, Calla, which I don't think you have.

Raelynn,

 

The pattern I'm using is actually a scarf pattern. It's the "Aran Isles Muffler" from the book Encyclopedia of Crochet by Donna Kooler. I'm making a bunch of scarves that are the length of my bed and then joining the sides of them together with single crochet.

Hooray! Since my son was so accomadating letting me switch afghan patterns, I really worked hard to get it done ASAP for him. Today I finished the last panel, so tonight and tomorrow all I have to do is put the 7 panels together!!!! So now I am off to join the panels so that I can have it washed and on his bed tomorrow when he gets home from school as a surprise!
