Wednesday WIPs - 08.04.2015

I'm still concentrating on getting drink bottle cosies and beanies in sports colours done but I have managed to work on other things as well. Here are the items that I have worked on this week that are still WIPs.

Moogly CAL Square #7 - Smooth Fox's Amethyst Square
This isn't the square that was actually chosen as #7 for the Moogly CAL but I didn't particularly like the one that was so I chose from one of the alternatives. I quite like the look of this one and it fits better with what I wanted to do with my blanket.

Moogly CAL Squares so far
These are all the squares that I have completed to date in some semblance of the positions that they will be in in the finished blanket. This placement may change as more squares are completed. Some observant people might notice that there are 8 squares here even though we're only up to square 7. I did 2 of square 1 because I wanted 25 squares instead of the 24 that are planned but didn't realise at the time that there were alternative that I could chose from for the extra one that I needed.

Tablet Carry Bag
I have been debating what I should put on the sides of this bag and ended up choosing to include my name. I'm not sure about this font as some of the letters look a little odd but it does look decorative.

Shy Butterfly Baby Jacket
I was a little surprised to see the colours in the sleeves match as I hadn't really tried to start the second sleeve at the same point in the colour repeat. Probably looks better than have mismatched sleeves though so I'm glad it worked out.

Trauma Teddy to be
I still haven't got the makings of the the last 3 Trauma Teddies back from the lady that is adding the sash to them and I haven't heard is she still wants me to give them to her flat. I guess I will keep doing them this way until I here otherwise.

Sue has decided that she was getting a ltiile bored with working in the same colour all the time so she started a second bag, this time in the colours of the Murray of Athol tartan.

Tartan Bag
One of these day Sue will actually get around to finishing one of the many projects that she has started unless I get sick of seeing them around the place and decide to have a go at finishing them myself (not that I don't have enough WIPs to work on at the moment).

Thinking about tartans, it's almost cool enough to think about getting the rug back out and finishing it off.

That's it from me for now. Be sure to check back on Friday to see my finished objects. In the meantime, be sure to check out the links in the sidebar and see what other people have been making.

Richard.

  2. Wow - and I thought I had a lot of projects going at one time! LOL. It's fun to flit back and forth between whatever strikes your fancy at the moment.

  4. I've chosen the Orange square as one of my EyeLoveKnots Yarn Favorites, and featured in this week's party! As much as a bunch of colors look, a simple solid color is also really great and clean looking.
    Also a big fan of the plastic canvas projects - that was my first love almost 10 years ago.
