Friday FOs - 14.09.2018

I have managed to finish a couple of the objects that I had the ,akings of last week as well as a couple of objects that were started this week. Here are my finished objects for this week.

Penguin No. 3 for 2018

My third penguin for this year.

Comfort Bear No. 37 for 2018

We're almost 3/4 of the way through the year and I'm still managing to finish a bear every week. I'm starting to think I can make it all the way to the end of the year.

Octopus No. 15

Another octopus to add to the collection. I will be giving the hospital a call soon to see if they will take them off my hands.

Small Simple Owl

The last of the objects that I have finished is an owl. I have another ready to finish but didn't get time this week so it should be done for next week.

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

Friday FOs - 24.08.2018

I have been just a little less productive this week as previous weeks, having taken the day off, yesterday, to go up to Wagga Wagga to have lunch with my sister and father, however, I actually have 4 finished objects to show. It's just some WIPs that have suffered. Here are my finished objects for this week.

2016 CAL Blanket

This has taken a while but is finally finished. I'm not sure if the people that were working on this CAL will be expecting a finished blanket this late.

Comfort Bear No. 34 for 2018

Another week and another bear. I'm still on target to finish one bear each week this year.

Octopus No. 12

Another octopus to add to the collection. I do hope the hospital will take them.

Penguin No. 2 for 2018

The first penguin is already sold so I might need to make a few of these.

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

Friday FOs - 17.08.2018

Another week has come to an end and it is time to show what I have acheived. Here are my finished items for this week.

Small Penguin

This is the first of many for this year. I had someone express an interest in buying a couple of these at one of the markets earlier this year but this one is already sold.

Comfort Bear#33 for 2018

One more bear ready to be given away.

Octopus #11

And one more octopus to add to the collection.

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

Friday FOs - 23.10.2015

Well, after promising to have something other than trauma teddies finished, I have finally managed to finish something else. Here are my finished objects for this week.

A Pair of Penguins 

I would have liked to have had these finished a couple of weeks ago but they are finished now. These will be available in my shop early next week.

Trauma Teddy #40 for 2015

Trauma Teddy #41 for 2015

Two more teddies finished and I only have one knitted teddy to make up so I'm almost caught up and then I will be back to one per week.

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 - 14.10.2015

I have had a bit of a mixed week this week. The temperature cooled a little and I was able to work on blankets but I took a day off to catch up with emails. I have worked on a few items and here they are.

Butterfly Square - side one 

Butterfly Square - side two 

I did a few more rows on the square I started last week before I got bored with it and started on something else.

Corner to Corner Picture Square 

With all the projects I have on the go at the moment I didn't really need to start another but I have been itching to try this technique for a while.

Story Time Blanket 

I don't think I will be doing much more of this one at home until the weather cools down. In the meantime, I will still be working on this while at crochet class as that is held in an air conditioned hall and I can spread it out on the table so it's not on my lap.

Baby Blanket 

For those that are interested, this uses the same stitch as the corner to corner blanket but is worked from the centre.

Two Penguins 

I'm still trying to get these finished but don't seem to be getting very far. I'm sure I will have these finished soon.

Tunisian Spiral Blanket 

I spent a bit of time in a waiting room so this one came out of the bag.

That's it from me for today. 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.

Wednesday WIPs - 30.09.2015

I don't have as much to show you today as I would normally but that isn't because I haven't worked on many projects. I have worked on quite a few this week and have finished a couple. Here are the projects that are still WIPs.

Moogly CAL Square #19

I decided to continue with my sequence and make this square in a single colour. It loses something but still looks quite good.

Two Penguins 

This was one of the projects that I expected to get finished this week, but I haven't even finished all the parts. I still have a pair of wings to make before I'm ready to sew them together.

Baby Blanket 

I have worked another round on this, even if it doesn't look any different to how it looked last week.

Story Time Blanket 

I'm still making progress on this even though the weather is starting to warm up.

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.

Wednesday WIPs - 23.09.2015

Quite a few of my projects have been worked on this week. That probably means that there isn't much progress on any of them but I hope it's noticeable anyway.

Two Penguins 

I have made pretty good progress on these and might even be able to finish them next week.

Baby Blanket 

It is a little harder to see the progress on this one but progress has been made.

Story Time Blanket 

I'm sure you can see the progress on this one although I haven't made as much progress as I would have liked.

Beanie 

I'm on the decrease section of this and may have it finished within the next week also.

Shy Butterfly Baby Booties 

The second bootie has been made so both are ready for the butterfly cuff. I could have three items finished next week!

Moogly CAL Square #19

I didn't get this one done this week but I have another week before the next square comes out so there is plenty of time.

That's it from me for this week. I'm sure Sue will have her blog updated later tonight and I will have something to show you on Friday. Until then, be sure to check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been working on.

Wednesday WIPs - 16.09.2015

I have managed to work on quite a few of my projects and even started a couple of new ones. The following is what they look like now.

Story Time Blanket 

A little bit has been added to this. I think progress will start to slow down now as the weather starts to warm up. It won't be long before it's too warm to have on my lap.

Baby Blanket 

I should be able to work on this one a little longer as it's lighter but it will get too warm to have on my lap in a couple of months.

Boy's Rugby Jumper 

I have all the parts ready to finish this one off, I just need to sew on the collar and the zip.

Shy Butterfly Baby Bootees 

Another pair of bootees to go with the jacket made with the same yarn. I needed to make the DK version first so I knew what adjustments I needed to make for this pair.

Friday FOs - 11.07.2014

I have a couple of items to show you this week. One that you would probably be expecting and another toy.

Small Penguin

These small guys only take a few hours to make but I won't need to make more of these until I sell one of the ones I've made, so I should have something different for next week.

Trauma Teddy #44

This is my 26th Trauma Teddy for this year. If I knew how many weeks had passed this year I would know how many weeks I had missed out on making these. I think it's only one.

If you want to see what others have been making just checkout the links in the sidebar.

Richard.

Friday FOs - 04.07.2014

All my finished items only took a short while this week. Each one only took one or two afternoons.

Here they are.

Two Hanging Towels

This will be the last of the towels for a while. I will let my stocks dwindle a bit before I go out and get some more.

Small Penguin

I think I put the beak too high and made the eye bulge more than I had intended, but these are the things that make my creations unique.

Trauma Teddy #43

One more teddy to make some child a little happier about getting a needle or needing an ambulance ride.

That's it from me for this week. Check out the links in the sidebar to see what other people have been making.
