I have been spending my evenings crocheting on the couch while we watch Law & Order episodes on tv. They've been airing quite a lot of those lately. Almost everyday, in fact. I think it's good they do because I get to work on my granny squares' edges, finally decided on white this time. It will take around 140 squares to finish the blanket and, so far, I've only done a quarter. This is going to take some time to finish.
Little projects in between keep my crochet time interesting. It's good to make something different once in a while as I easily get bored when I stick to just one project. Seeing that the blanket won't be done anytime soon, I need a breaker to spice it up a bit. I even used one of my cute buttons. Still can't get enough of them!
The sleeping pill is slowly kicking in. It might be a good idea to sign off now. I hope you all had a great weekend!

wow you do some neat crocheting! i was never good at that. i remember having it as a project in highschool, since i couldn't do a decent one, i traded projects with my neighbor. she does my crochet projects while i supply her with debate ideas and we got pretty fine grades :)   Haha, that's a brilliant solution! I learned to crochet in grade school and I loved it! |

| i can imagine it's going to be one very pretty blanket! would definitely make the cold weather more bearable, if you can snuggle yourself in such loveliness that you made yourself. :) I'm really excited about this! I make it my goal to finish before winter. Ha, good luck to me! |

| Keeping your hands busy with crocheting while watching TV is so much better than keeping your hands busy with chips and salsa! It is much better! But there's another pair of hands that do the feeding so there is no escape. Haha! |

| Cool to see the square pile growing! Is this your first blanket project? Funny when there are these series mini-marathons on tv. You can somehow get lost in the day watching one after the other...at least you multi-task and crochet at the same time :) True that! There were days when I did nothing but watch episodes after episodes. But now, it's too hot for that. lolThis is my first granny squares blanket. I started a vertical blanket last year but didn't make a lot of progress on that. This one, though, has more promise in it so I really really want to finish it. |
