I’m working a new job, a doctors office, which is far more relaxed then Wal-Mart. I might still be working wal-mart from time to time, but I have no idea. They have me on the schedule one week and not the next, so who knows. But hopefully I’ll get far more crafting done now, since I’ll be working fewer days for more pay! YAY! I’ll probably post some progress pics tonight, I finished all the squares for my 2008 blanket but I still haven’t put them together. I already have plans to do the 2009 blanket that is on Craftster and Ravelry, I’m so excited! I can’t decide if I want to do them in the colors I want my room (blue and brown) or in my favorite colors (purple and white). Here’s some pics of my Nov and Dec square… There’s more pics on my photobucket site.
November

December

I really, really should post more often but I always seem to post my stuff on Craftster.org instead of posting it on here. Maybe I’ll just start posting it on here and then posting links on Craftster or something. Anyway, here we go.
Testing a bear pattern. Here’s the post about it.

Brittany’s finished baby blanket. She’s had her girl and she’s adorable!

September Square

The MC. It’s got a wonky seam (my fault). The pattern is from Get Your Crochet On!


Wonky seam! I don’t know how I did this but it didn’t happen with the second one I did. Who knows, I still love the hat, I wear it quite often.

Here’s a few more pictures of stuff I’ve done… The blanket is for Brittany, a coworker of mine. The hats are for friends for xmas or to sell, don’t know which yet. I made the grey and blue hat while I was in PA visiting my Dad, I also started the baby blanket but I haven’t finished it yet. The blanket pattern called for a size G hook which is what I started in but I moved to an I hook ’cause it was such a tight weave and it was curling pretty bad. It’s working up much faster now and much softer, lol.
Baby blanket - about half done

Year long blanket - lots more squares to do!

Grey hat - Made large enough for a mans head or a females with a rolled brim.



Blue hat - also made big for my model, but fits me well.


I’ve gotten a good bit done, including a few CAL squares. I’m going to try to post pictures of them all and then start posting everyday or every other day. No more months between post!
I’ve decided to make one blanket that’s green and purple, so I’m trying to use both colors in all my squares. A little white in there just to lighten things up.

Tomorrow I’ll do a catch up post on the hats I’ve made. I made a couple in PA and I did some sewing.
I want to post pictures of Brittany’s baby blanket I’m making too, but I want to get new pictures of that one. Lots to come!
Here are some quick shots of my blankets
