I decided to schedule one more post before I left for Paducah. I won't be posting again until this weekend for the April book post. Today I'll show the progress on my 3 crochet projects. I got the tshirt past the underarms and am working on the body. I think it fit well enough to keep going. At this point I'm about 1/3 through the second ball of 4 (I think). This is linen stitch so it goes pretty fast even though I'm using a G hook. I'm on the 2nd of 7 balls for my brother's blanket. This is about 50" wide and will be about 60" long, a nice snuggle size. This is going to get pretty hot to work on so I don't know how quickly it will be finished. He isn't going to need it anytime soon so I can take my time. This is the baby quilt. This is another really easy pattern and is the project I took with me on the trip to work on in the evenings. These balls have a lot of yardage and I'm still on the 1st of 4 balls.
I think I might start using some project markers so I can gauge my progress each week......because that's how I turn something relaxing into a competition with myself!

I am happy to hear that the T-shirt is going to fit well enough. I hope it doesn't shrink when you wash it. I am not familiar with that type of yarn.

You are making great progress on all these projects. That baby quilt is really pretty! Sometimes I just use a safety pin to mark my progress. It is nice to see how much you have gotten done when you feel you haven't hardly made any progress. It's also a great way to see how much you can get done in a hour so you can judge how long the project might take or how much you can get done with just a few minutes here and there.

You amaze me with how much you get done! It's nice to have several different projects on the go though - at least then there's less chance of getting bored. Comments are closed.
