Crochet Share


Look at these wonderful colors! These are the tails that have been cut off of the latest adventure with yarn.














Just love these happy colors, these skeins of yarn are those I had left over from other projects. They are getting put to good use right now.


My girlfriend found this great throw, very easy and very pretty. Three of us are going to make this and exchange squares so we all have a part in each other's throw. Isn't that neat!



The pattern can be found here:
Brightly Colored Throw FaveCrafts.com



There are two different square patterns. Make 28 squares of each pattern (total of 56). So far half way done with one of the patterns.














I just love crocheting and even more so when its shared with wonderful friends.

  1. Very pretty! I read somewhere that a fellow crocheter puts all their bits and pieces through the opening of an empty Kleenex box (the kind with the plastic slit covering) and when it's full then she just tosses the whole thing and none get all over, etc. As soon as I have an empty box, I'm going to try that.

  5. Lovely colors. I put a pic up of a lamb sweater I made awhile back on my blog. I linked to your site to show the beautiful lamb blanket. Let me know if this is not alright.

Well, I hear stormy weather is coming my way, but I hope it's a sunny one for you today! ~tina

  9. Granny squares bring back memories of being a child. My grandma was always crocheting granny squares to make afghans. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Good luck with yours. And thanks for visiting my blog & leaving me a comment.

  13. Hi Glor,
    I've read that some crafter's save the yarn tails, and then toss them out for the birds to build their nest with.
