Friday FOs - 25.02.2022

This week I managed to finish one of the bears that I started a few weeks ago in preparation for the workshop that I was running. Here it is. 

Comfort Bear No 3 for this year 

I was a little surprised to find that I had only made 2 of these before this week. I'm definitely not going to be making one per week this year. 

That's all from me for this week. Until next time, have a good one.

Wednesday WIPs - 23.02.2022

I have made some more progress on the TCAL squares that I'm going to use for my queen bed blanket. I finished square no 2 ambrose stayed on square no 3 and am now 2 weeks behind. I'm sure I'll catch up now that I'm over covid. 

Here are my squares. 

TCAL Square No 2

I decided that once the centre pattern was square I would just fish the frame ambrose call it done. 
TCAL Square No 3

This is my first time doing a Tunisian square in the round and I had some trouble with the start but once I got going it was relatively easy to keep track of the corners and the stitch count although I did have to undo a couple of rounds because I didn't have enough stitches on one side. 

That's it from me for now.

Friday FOs - 18.02.2022

After a few weeks with no finished objects, partly because of covid acme partly because I was making preparations for a workshop that I was running, I finally have something to show you, and here it is. 

Blanket

This blanket is made from knitted rectangles that were donated to the Salvation Army along with a load of yarn. All I've done is crochet them together. 

That's it from me for this week. Until next time, have a good one.

Wednesday WIPs - 09.02.2022

Well, if has been a couple of weeks since I last posted anything. I haven't finished anything and haberdashery struggled to work on anything for the l last week or so. In fact, today is the first day in a week that I have felt like doing anything other than sleep. This has been due too a little thing called covid. I still have to isolate until Saturday but it looks like I might be able to be a bit more productive. 

Here are the things I have been working on (or at least trying to work on) during the last 2 weeks. 

Tunisian CAL 2022 Square No 2

This is my attempt at the second square in this year's TCAL 

Knitted Square for a Comfort Bear 

A knitted version of the square I crocheted a couple of weeks ago. I'm hoping to use this square and the crocheted one as part of a workshop that I will be running at a local community centre teaching people how to make comfort bears. 

That's about it from me for now. I don't expect to have anything finished this week. Until next time, have a good one.
