Finished Object Fridays #4 (mp3)
It’s been a busy week for me. In between homeschooling my son, taking him to karate and writing articles I crocheted a bit. I’m still working on the granny a day challenge [a bit more difficult to stay up to date than I thought] and I’m also making hats for the local hospital.
Here’s what I finished up this week:
I’m starting to get down to little scraps and small balls of yarn. One square [second from the left] has 4 yarns in it. I’m joining as I go with a single crochet. I’ll be working rows of 7 for now which is 1 square a day and then see how I’ll work up the final piece – either in a 366 square afghan or a number of smaller lapghans.
I joined these squares differently but didn’t like the ridge it left. So I set this aside and started joining them with a single crochet which I like better. Also, should have set some of the same color yarn aside as now I’m going to have the ugliest granny square blanket around – what with all the mixed matched yarn. Oh boy.
This week I finally got around to stitching the ‘nori’ onto my onigiri – rice ball – ami. I think I cut it way too wide.
I made a sample Valentine project – it’s a heart from a Redheart pattern – It’s a double stitch twins pattern called “Heartfelt Halter”. I made two hearts and then used a blanket stitch to sew them together – leaving a long tail so I can hang it. I also made a number of hearts which I will use in a bunting.
Finally, I made a couple of baby hats for the local hospital. Once I get up enough hats I’ll drop them off.
