Welcome Cheeria! Hmmm, that's a might fine blanket as well. I thought I had my pattern chosen but I dunno now

[Misa]

Athba you have a head start on the ME Cal. Well done.

 

Cheeria welcome. I think Cara is using that yarn as well. Nice pattern.

 

Yep, same yarn. Almost the same colors too That pattern would sure be faster than the Navajo but gosh I really like the stitch from the Navajo. Just an awful lot of ends to weave

[Aussie]

Cara yes your very brave to do a ghan again with that many ends to weave.

Thats worse than doing little squares.

[q8_crochet]

wendy - yup

we don`t celebrate hooloween - christmas - new year or even easter so not much giving away things i crochet so i always have a head start to crochet for ME

[Aussie]

Athba I didnt know that you dont celebrate those occasions. Have you started the RR yet.

[q8_crochet]

yup those occassions are for christians not us thats why

 

yes i`ve started it and its 12 rounds and a half , 19''

i want it between 65-70 inchs so i can cover under it while sleeping

[losingmymind2]

Hi Cheeria, I'm going to do the same ghan, but for charity.

[Real Deal]

Well, shall I lug my shrug over here? This poor thing is being dragged from pillar to post, and now I have to get through Christmas first. It will get made. I want it for me.

Holy smokes, this CAL is taking off like crazy !

 

What a lot of response so quickly. Glad to see lots of familiar names and also some new ones to meet ! You all will love it here- it's a nice group of ladies .

 

I've got my choices narrowed down to 2-- will figure out which one I'm doing and post today .

 

I THINK I have my colors picked. It's colors I have been wanting to use for AGES .

 

Anyhow, I'll stop back in once I choose the pattern and colors.

[judianne]

WOW! What a lot of posts to read this morning!

Donna, WTG on the 63 squares ghan!

Karen, I'm sure you popped in here earlier...and my "list" is all mental (like me:P ) Great that your 3SUB WON'T be "ugly"!

Mel...we'll be here whenever you start your RR - great pattern, BTW!

Shelly...I'm sure you'll get that srug done quickly! Think you said plum? Pretty!

Athba...you have lots you want to make, too! Rest and "hook" and keep us posted!!

Cheeria - I saw that pattern, too...great choice. The ghan should be nice and warm:c9

Kathy...did you pick out the yarn for YOU yet??

Joyce - go for it! You know you need to finish that shrug:cheer

Julie, I'm looking forward to seeing what you decide - it's always a good pattern!

 

See you gals later! I just picked up my Limelight Caron Brite...just to play with the pattern....but gotta get back to the comfortghan, which is SOOOOO close to being done I can "taste" it!

[econ-nerd]

yup those occassions are for christians not us thats why

 

Are you Muslim? My friend is and is from Pakastan originally. She showed me pictures and explained her engagment celebration. WOW! It was so different than what we are used to here and so interesting to hear about. She looked so different in her pictures - even more beautiful. She wore royal blue and gold and looked stunning. I think it was the make up and no head cover that made her look so different to me.

[TammyG]

I'm gonna join!! I actually make quite a bit for myself, mostly wearables, and have several projects started. Everyone's ideas sound fantastic, can't wait to see pics.

[judianne]

Welcome, Tammy!!!

[Krystal16]

Halloween and New Year aren't Christian celebrations, they're more like "civic" holidays. Halloween used to be a pagan ritual and somehow expanded into everyday culture just for fun. New Year is just the turn of the calendar - no religion to it at all. (Although many do pray to God the first thing they wake up! )

[TammyG]

Kystal - I love your avatar and I got a box, so hopefully will be sending that stuff out soon.

[HappyBunny]

I would love to join in! I have some Classic Elite Renaissance Yarn that would make a great shrug but I keep putting off making it because it would be for ME.

 

This sounds like fun!

Tammy - isn't that avatar funny? LOL! Great that you found a box!

Ok I have finally found a pattern for my caron brites yarn.

 

I made this for my mum last xmas and forgot I had the crochet today magazine that had the pattern inside. Its now on the website as a freebie. I have started it and it looks great in the brites yarn and even though I will be making heaps of hexagons at least its a JAYG so no sewing involved. You gotta love that.

 

Here is the pattern but it will be brighter obviously because of the yarn Im using.
