This site is suppose to be my creative ventures and tomorrow (later today) it will be the base for another Multi-blog Poetry Wednesday so please check back. But today I wanted to feature my "while ill" crafts - my afghans. The above one is my first and is smaller, sort of lap robe size.
And this one is full size and I got more creative on my color uses and number of square motifs to arrange. Sitting in my easy chair crocheting squares is very relaxing when I am watching a DVD. And until you link them all together you don't have to be under a blanket of yarn. So I am starting another lap sized one.
Very pretty, too, Jacqui. I never learned crochet, I'm a knitter, but it's probably never too late. I know, as with some knit projects, it provides an artistic yet relaxing outlet, and the result is a practical item.
ReplyDeleteAre you still feeling the effects from your recent illness? It has taken quite a toll. Take care.
Actually I think I am well. About Friday of last week I woke up feeling like my old self but I am trying not to overdo and did not jump back fully with both feet into my old schedule. Still reserving the afternoons for quiet time and that means crocheting and DVD's.
ReplyDeleteI too knit and knitting was my first love. Still prefer it for things to wear like sweaters. I came to crocheting late but it is easy to learn especially now with Youtube. You can get instructional videos there believe it or not.
