What to do on Friday ...

They say a Noreaster is coming.  Below us and above us the snow is predicted to be in the over feet range with us to get a fair amount as well.  Whether I will be out working or home on the range (sauce and pot roast simmering) depends upon when the snow begins to fall.  Should it be falling by early morning then the day will be spent at home.   Hmmm, just what will I do?  Oh yes, a bit of cleaning, some laundry and of course ... can you guess ... I know you can and did.  Now, which project will be worked on ...

 the Blackberry Salad Striped Blanket ... loving the bobbles (also what we used to call popcorns).IMG_2958








Redheart's One Ball Baby Blanket and Hat  I'm using Redheart Baby Love yarn, so, so soft.  Another keeper pattern and one that I am sure will be well used.

IMG_2955    or Redheart's Holiday Cables Throw ... a friend of mine wanted to make this and so I started another one to work along with her.  She is doing in the ecru as my first one was and I now am getting my own in red.  I love this pattern.  If you've admired an aran afghan but been afraid to try it ... don't be.  Its such a fun crochet and gorgeous results.

And I do have a finish - Bev's 5 Day Blankie

I think I have myself looking forward to a snowed in day.  Safe travels to those within the blizzazd regions.  Blessings to all.

  4. You always have such pretty things on your hook. Enjoy your winter storm and settle down with the hook and a warm cup of hot cocoa. Blessings

  6. Wow! You certainly have quite an assortment of WIPs, but they are ALL looking BEAUTIFUL already!.. We are expecting anywhere from 12 to 18" of snow here'; and it's a SNOWDAY from home-schooling today, so I've got a grin as big as my son's, I have to admit!! My plans?.. I'm going to get some cleaning done, and then I'm going to pop a movie or two into the DVD player, and I'm going to RELAX, and I'm going to CROCHET!!!... Enjoy your weekend! Stay safe and stay warm! ~tina
