With all of my extra time this week, I decided to go ahead and block my first batch of completed squares. Honesty time: this is the first project I will have ever properly blocked. My former method involved my husband and I essentially playing tug-of-war with my freshly finished blankets to stretch them into shape. Technically "wrong", but it is an effective blocking method if you dont have a 6 foot wide blocking board!
Another week down on the Patchwork Mystery CAL! This week's square is called Twisted Times and was designed by Courtney Lang from Made With Love and Yarn. Find her pattern HERE. This one was really challenging at first, but thankfully each week includes a tutorial video for the pattern, because I needed it for a few rows!
So if you've ever wondered how my stream of consciousness goes, see above. As far as the pattern itself goes, I really had fun with it. This week's square was designed by Jessica Beres of Crochet Anything. Find her pattern HERE. have never made a square from the corner up in that manner, so it was great to learn a new technique. I love the look of cable stitches, and was delighted to see them on the square!
Week one was so much fun. It is the Star Portal Square designed by Stephanie Ware of Crochet Instinct. Find the pattern HERE. At first, when I discovered that there would be one square per week, I thought that time frame was way too long.
The Poseable Bunny Ears Headband is fun to make, and even more fun to wear! You will need a few little extra materials to make this project, but the ens result is totally worth it!
If you've been paying attention to my social media recently, you already know that I have been deeply involved with velvet yarn over the last couple of months. The first velvet yarn I purchased was Lion Brand Vel-luxe, and I later picked up some Bernat Velvet. Which one do I like better?
For not only my future reference but for yours if you are hunting something good to watch, I have decided to list my 20 most favorite shows to binge watch while crocheting and where I find them. (Note: this list is in the order of my thought process, and not necessarily ranked by favorites)
