When I was looking for the second skein of sock yarn,
I came across this yarn that is similar to Chroma from KnitPicks;
it is a single ply lightweight yarn.
I thought it would be fun to crochet these motifs without having to change yarns --no decisions!
I just use slip stitches to get me to the place I need to be for the next round!
These just few off the needles.
I only have one more skein of this yarn
but I do have several balls of ends from Chroma
so I will blend them into one lap robe.
I don't care if it is only big enough for a cat blanket,
I am enjoying making them! lol
I rarely post about cooking/baking because I don't enjoy it, truth be told.
I would prefer to clean and let someone else do the cooking!
Anyway, this is a Friday night ritual-fresh pizza by me.
I actually enjoy it and there is enough left over for lunch the next day!
Even better!

Using variegated yarn for the lanterns is a great idea! David will love the painting (I won’t tell)!
ReplyDeleteI need to find a fail proof easy pizza dough, I love pizza but don't enjoy making it!
ReplyDeleteI've been making pizza on Fridays too but yesterday I had to use up my Asian vegetables I managed to get in my last delivery so it was fried rice. I miss that pizza though. I love it for breakfast the next day. Since my college days, I have a thing for cold pizza.
ReplyDeleteI crocheted a shawl once using variegated yarn and it was a lot of fun. More fun that weaving in ends for sure. I've always admired that lantern pattern but it's a little beyond my skill level which is pretty much 0.
I've made a few blankets with that lantern pattern, changing colors along the way. I told myself if I make another, I won't be changing colors every round. :-)
ReplyDeleteWill you share your pizza dough recipe? Mine never turns out and we love pizza. Your's looks delicious.
Take care.
Blessings,
Betsy
I feel your swap pain. Well see how the ATC goes.
ReplyDeleteOh those Lamps are so pretty. What a cool thing for your grand to get your ART!
ReplyDeleteThat will be a lovely afghan.
ReplyDeleteNot long before Covid, I started making homemade pizza to save a little on takeout. It has definitely saved us since COVID. Every grocery day is pizza-pie night!
