Wednesday WIPs - 02.01.2019

It's the start of a new year and I thought I should start the year by showing the status of my WIPs. These are all bar rhe comfort bear and blue horse that I hope to have finished for Friday.

Story Time Blanket

 I'm currently working on the border. Once that is finished, I will need to sew in all the ends and embroider a bible verse in the blank area.

Tunisian Sprial Blanket

All the crocheting is done on this, I just need to sew in all the ends.

Corner to Corner Pixel Squares Blanket

This is one of two projects that I have been working on while at markets. I have almost finished crocheting the second square but still have lots of ends to sew in on the first.

Double Knit Butterfly Squares - side 1

Double Knit Butterfly Squares - side 2

This is the second of the projects that I have been working on while at markets. I think I have one quarter of the squares that I need for the full blanket.

Knitted Short Rows Scarf

I started this as an experiment to see if I could do a knitted version of the Tunisian Short Rows Scarf I made a few years ago. I will eventually get around to continuing work on it.

Yarn Eater Squares Blanket

I decided to try this as I had never done it before. Now it's kinda waiting while I get some more of the toys that I'm making finished.

Baby's Sunhat and Bootees in Yellow

One more item from my to-list getting ticked off. I still have a set in white to do once this set is done.

I think that's all of my WIPs. There may be more hiding in one of the boxes that I haven't unpacked yet.  I know I have at least one tartan blanket that my ex-wife wants me to finish, but it will have to wait until I clear some of these other projects.

That's it for now. Until next time, have a good one.

Wednesday WIPs - 27.06.2018

I think it is about time I showed some progress photos. Here are some of the items that I have worked on recently.

Bootees for a Sunhat and Bootees set

I'm not sure that I need any more bootees for my stall but I don't have any Sunhat and Bootees sets at the moment and they were at the top of my to-do list.

Green Sheep

This is the third green sheep since I started making these. The first went to my sister to be given to my great niece whose favourite book is "Where's the Green Sheep", the second is finished and ready to be photographed before being given to the local community centre (they read this book to the kids sometimes) and this one will be added to my shop. I plan to make other coloured sheep as weel but seem to be stuck on green ones at the moment.

Story Time Blanket

Only two more strips and the border to go on this one then it will be time to sew in the ends and embroider a verse of scripture into the blank area before I call it done.

Tunisian Sprial Blanket

I am now working on the black edging. Once that's done I will sew in the ends and call it done.

I have also been working on joining the squares I made for the 2016 Moogly CAL but didn't remember to take photos. Maybe if I remember next week you will get to see it.

I did take photos of my finished objects last Friday but forgot to post them. If I remember this week I will post them along with this week's finished objects.

That's it for now, until next time, have a good one.

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.

Wednesday WIPs - 02.09.2015

Having finished a couple of items in the last couple of weeks I have started new ones to replace them. Here are my WIPs for this week.

Shy Butterfly Baby Booties 

Having finished the baby jackets I thought I should make booties to go with them. These might not be an exact matching pair as I have little of the yarn left and will have to use whatever comes up in the remainder of the yarn.

Story Time Blanket 

I haven't given much information about this as I figure that it will reveal itself as it gets made. I will tell you that it was requested by one of the Sunday school leaders to be used during story time, hence the name.

Beanie 

The father of the child that I made the last beanie for has decided that he wants one for himself and decided that he wants his in black. I would have had more done but had a problem calculating the number of stitches that I needed to cast on.

Baby Blanket 

This is one of my wife's projects that she has handed over to me because she can't crochet any more. I haven't actually worked on this yet but wanted to show where I started.

Sue has given me her current project to show off.

Hand Bag

Sue seems to be somewhat fixated on tartans at the moment.

That's it from me for this week. Be sure to check back on Friday to see what I have finished. In the meantime, check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been working on.
