gettin back to the hook.

It's been quite a while since I've picked up a crochet hook.
I haven't really made anything other than something very small here and there since I finished my granny square blanket and wavey blanket last year.
I've been feeling inspired lately to get back on the crocheting wagon.
I think that granny square circles shall be my next task and I absolutely love all things crochet that come from miss dottie angel.

Perhaps I'll make a nice little pillow/cushion or a ottoman cover of some sort.

These pictures can be found from her posts here and here.

It's decided, I'm bringing my crochet basket back out this weekend. (Okay maybe not this weekend since it's a holiday and all, but next week definitely.) Keep your eyes peeled for new projects soon!

waves.

I absolutely loved making this blanket. I loved the colors. I loved the little waves. I just sent it off last week to Oregon as a little wedding present for Rachael and Noah. The pattern was actually a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. Once I got used to it, it made for some pretty fast rows of waves. Although I still sent it out to them about two months after their actual wedding.

I hope they like it as much as I liked making it.

Last night I finally started to put together my fall leaf garland. I have pictures of that to post soon, along with some of my favorite nephew. We watched A Charlie Brown Christmas tonight. I know it's a little early for Christmas, but he wanted to watch Charlie Brown and thats the only one we had. Now I'm off to spend the morning with Erin and catch up on her newly married life.

sneak peek.

Just a little preview of something I've been working on.

Now that it's almost fall I feel like I have more of an excuse to crochet more. Scarves and hats here I come.

I should be finishing up another little project today/night, so hopefully I'll post that tomorrow.

complete.

My poor little computer has been sick a lot over the last two months, which means I haven't had it a lot. But now it's back and I'm hoping she stays with me for a long time now. Anyways, that's one reason why I haven't updated this thing in forever. That and laziness.

I am finally putting pictures up of my granny square blanket. Which I finished
about a month ago.
I absolutely love it.
I have lots of different favorite squares. And the yellow, mint, and light blue one, below, is one of them.
It is now my go to blanket whenever I am cold.
Which means it's perfect because fall is right around the corner.

P.S. Fall is my favorite!

Granny Squares.

I finally finished my granny square blanket! It seems like forever ago when I started it, back in May. And I finished it last night. I absolutely love it. Here are some pictures from along the way.
These are two of the first squares I did.




All 120 squares before I stared putting them together.

I'll post pictures of the finished blanket in a few days. I still have a few loose ends to tie up. I can't wait to show you.
