Wednesday WIPs - 29.06.2016

Time to show what I have been working on this week. Here are the projects that I have worked on that are still WIPs.

Striped Dishcloth
This one is almost done, which is a good thing since I'm almost out of the variegated pink.

Tunisisn Spiral Blanket
Story Time Blanket
I'm still making good progress on this blanket although it will still take me a while to finish.

I spent a bit of time in waiting rooms yesterday so I got this out and added a couple more blocks.

While writing this post I realised that I forgot one project, my Moogly CAL blanket. I guess I'll have to show you this week's block next week.

As usual, check back on Friday to see this week's finished objects and check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been working on.

WIP Wednesday - 22.06.2016

I have been concentrating on one project this week although I did secumb to a bit of startitis. Here are the WIPs that I have worked on this week.

Moogly CAL 2016 Block 5
I quite liked making this square but I not sure about the colours. These where the closest I had to the colours used by the designer and I have elected to use the designers colours for all my blocks.

Owl
Another attempt at an owl. I expect to have a parliament soon.

Wash Cloth in Double Ended Tunisian
This is an attempt at doing colour work in doble ended tunisian. The colour changes aren't as defined as other techniques but the colour changes are still visible.

Story Time Blanket
This has been my main project this week. Since I have finished other major projects, and I have been working on this one for so long, I figured I would try and get this one finished as soon as possible. A little bit more and people might be able to see what the picture is, but I'm not going to tel you what it is.

That's it from me for now, be sure to check back on Friday to see what I have finished, and be sure to check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been working on.

Friday FOs - 17.06.2016

It has been a good week for finishing things this week with four items completed, and here they are.

An Owl
This is my second attempt at making my own owl and I think I have got it right this time.

Tunisian Short Rows Scarf
This one will be going in the show later this year. I hope they don't confuse it with knitting.

Baby Blanket
Another of Sue's projects that I finished for her. Now I will have to see what other projects I can finish for her.

Trauma Teddy #17
Anothr week, another trauma teddy.

That's it from me for this week. As usual, check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have made.

Wednesday WIPs - 15.06.2016

I have had a reasonably busy week and managed to finish a few items, so I only have a couple of WIPs to show today, and here they are.

Moogly CAL 2016 Block #4
 I'm still 8 blocks behind but I'm sure I will catch up eventually.

Story Time Blanket
With other projects finished I might get to spend a bit of extra time on this one, that is if I can control my startitis.

Be sure to check back on Friday to have a look at all my finished objects. In the meantime, check out the links in the sidebar to what other people have been working on.

Friday FOs - 10.06.2016

Last Friday, one of my crochet students showed me an Owl. It looked quite simple so I thought I would have a go at making one. Here is my first effort.

Experimental Owl
There are definitely things that I need to change to make it look more Owl-like but everyone I showed this to seemed to think it was pretty good. I will keep trying.

Trauma Teddy #16 for 2016
I also finished my 16th Trauma Teddy for the year.

That's it from me for this week. As usual, please check the links in the sidebar to see what other people have made.

Wednesday WIPs - 08.06.2016

Another week of progress on a few of my WIPs and here they are.

Story Time Blanket
Another column finished and the next has been started.

Moogly CAL 2016 Block #3
I'm still 8 blocks behind but I'm sure I will catch up eventually.

Tunisian Short Rows Scarf
I think this is now long enough so as soon as I have finished this repeat of the pattern I will cast off, sew in the ends and call it done.

I have worked on a couple of other items and have finished something this week so check back on Friday to have a look at it. In the meantime, check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been working on.

Wednesday WIPs 01.06.2016

Well, it's time to show what I have been working on this week. I still haven't got back to my regular crafting schedule having only worked on 4 of my projects. Here are the 3 that are still WIPs.

Story Time Blanket
This one seems to go so much quicker when I don't have to keep consulting the pattern.

Moogly CAL 2016 Block 2
I'm catching up slowly, althoug it doesn't really seem like on the weeks that the new block comes out. I'm still 9 blocks behind.

Tunisian Short Rows Scarf
This is still my main go-to project since it is so repetative I don't have to think about it too much.

I do still have this week's Trauma Teddy to finish off but it should be finished by Friday so check back then to see if I have been successful. In the meantime, check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been working on.
