Comfortghan for JessC031778 - Enough squares, Thanks!

[nanacarr]

Can't believe how fast you are!! Your hook must be smokin'!!

[Krystal16]

I'm doing a really fast joining method - I put the two squares wrong side together, SC in corner, then ch1, then skip a stitch on each (or so, whatever to make them even out), then sc in the next two sts on the squares, trying to match up even distances. It's working quite well, taking up space on the squares that are slightly different sizes. I thought I'd mind having a ridge, but it's really not noticeable at all.

More neck rubs coming your way. Maybe a hand massage also.

And a back, shoulder and arm massage!

Krystal, I've been out of the loop lately, but finally had time to check the progress, you're doing a fabulous job. :hug to you.

[funkyreporter]

Wow! I can't believe it... there was just under two hours between when you posted the rows in one direction were done and when you said you were almost done with the other direction! Amazing!

Is this the latest pic: http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showpost.php?p=690058&postcount=351

 

WOW! it is huge! And absolutely beautiful. Krystal, you're amazing as well as all the square makers!

[Krystal16]

OK, no more neck rubs needed, as the vertical I can pick the lunking thing up and work in my lap. I had to hunch over for the other direction. That's also why this direction is going faster.

 

HOWEVER... I had to do something else for the last part of the evening, so no new progress.

 

But, since I'm without wheels, it's not like I'm gonna go anywhere in the next few days! LOL!

 

Now to go do some more joining...

[Burgandy]

I am really amazed at how fast your getting this done. I hope she likes it.

[Krystal16]

Well, I didn't go back to the c-ghan last night. I got talking with DH about planning our vacation, etc. instead. But I've been at it this morning, and I only have three more stripes to crochet. Then I can do the border!

[Lavenia]

Boy Krystal! After all this work you deserve a vacation! The afghan looks beautiful. I only get to look here in between shifts, so I feel I miss a lot. Good job & thanks for all the work you are doing on this project.

[Krystal16]

OK, I was just going to do my simple sl st, ch1 border, but it's not looking right. I'm going to have to go around with sc first, at least... Some of the squares are coming out wider than others with the border right on them, need to reinforce first with a round of sc. Gonna frog now (not too much, don't you worry, only about 10 minutes of time.

 

Thanks for liking what I've done with your squares, everyone!
