I finished the last few feet of the 4-patch for QOV,
took it off the frame and trimmed it up. I hope to make and apply the binding today!
The first of the valentine's day runners is on the frame and the second one will load right after this one!
I ended up doing two rows of something I saw new on a reel I saved from FB but when I looked back to link it, I could see that I did it 'wrong' and ended up with a whole new stitch that works great for edging--it is thicker and very similar to an I-cord edging! I added the second row to the back and like what I created!
The afghan finished out at 50" x 62" and I used almost 2 full skeins of the gray and the ivory Simply Flawless by Yarn Bee to make the solid granny squares. The crochet edging and joining was from an odd skein of Caron yarn
And last night, it was a perfect way to end the day....
Girl, you do more in a day than I get done in a week! Love the afghan and the mallet is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat looks nice and cozy!
ReplyDeleteWhoa....that's a lot to get done in one day! The new afghan looks so comfy in front of the fire. We got up to the 30's yesterday but are back in the 20's today. Ugh...
ReplyDeleteThe Valentine's runner is adorable.
ReplyDeleteYour afghan is so beautiful! The gray and cream is perfect!! Love the quilt and runner, too! xo
ReplyDeleteYou did that all in one day? The quilts, runner and blanket all look great. And I'm with you, I really like that edging that you created.
