This weeks mood blanket square is made of two different colours. Firstly the pink, as things had settled at home, finances were getting sorted, and despite being a bit cluttered and surrounded by stuff, we had made a start working through the boxes.
The second ball used was a multi-toned yarn, predominantly green, but with some yellow and cream too. This summed up work, which is pretty quiet, but still managing to bring stress and frustration
I like how the squares are all turning out so completely different
And already a whole month has gone by!
I haven't had much chance to work on my mini squares, as i've not managed to have much free time
But I did begin the joining process, and have worked the first two strips together
Am hoping to be able to have a lot more of the front joined by next time
so until then....
Love the colour of this weeks square x
ReplyDeleteI love the Spring colours in this week's square and i'm glad to hear that things are a bit more settled for you at home. I hope you manage to find the time you need for working on your mini squares this week, they are looking fab! x
ReplyDeleteThe joining looks interesting. Did you first to the squares, then added the white/cream line and then join? Sorry, if that's a daft question :\
ReplyDeleteThats ok Mecki, no its not a daft question. I am learning and experimenting with joining. I am doing the coloured mini squares and the i am doing double crochet stitches across the whole width of the squares with a chain stitch in between each square. Then to join the strips i put them right side facing and then double crochet the two white strips together. Hope that makes sense xx
DeleteThe mini squares are looking good, it's a good idea to do the joining up as you go along.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with all the sorting out etc and wishing you and your hubby a peaceful week.

Another lovely mood square, I can see your finished blanket is going to be amazing. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteLovely, another mood-blanketer! I love granny squares but I get so fed up darning in all the ends! x
ReplyDeleteI've not crocheted in years I've never been able to use patterns so ended up just making up as I went along.
ReplyDeleteYou asked about a travelling journal - a travelling journal is a journal or pages which are passed from one artist to another over a period of time either in the UK or internationally (mine is travelling internationally over 12 months with 12 artists taking part)- each artists works on one page each. So at the end of the journey you end up with a journal/pages full of art.
