I have been working on Dylan’s afghan for about five weeks now. Today I finally finished it.
I was hoping to have it finished before Dylan’s birthday, and I made it with a month to spare. Agnes wants one too, so I see some yarn shopping in my future.
His favorite color is green. I used four different shades for the afghan.
It is soft, warm, and cozy.
It fit Dylan’s bed perfectly too.
I hope he likes it. Hopefully he’ll be surprised when he comes home from school.
Well, Agnes is feeling so much better.
She is back to her noisy, busy, little self, and thank goodness for it too. I really hope that this last round of the ickies was the last one for the season. Bring on Spring, and healthy kiddos too.
I’m starting to feel better too. I finally feel like I have some energy back, so I’ve been catching up on a lot around the house. I finally got to the store, baked some cookies, and got a start on the nine loads of laundry that have been waiting for me.
I also started another project. This time it is an afghan for Thade. He has taken James’ blanket, so I really need to get one made for the big kid. I also need to make one for Agnes too. Better go yarn shopping.
It’s only week two into the new year, and I’ve already broken two of my resolutions.
Ugh, so the first one I broke was cutting back on soda. I had cut back to just one can a day, and I was doing pretty good. Then I got sick again, and the only thing that sounded good was Dr Pepper, hello two cans a day. I might have snuck in a late night Mountain Dew a time or two too.
The next broken resolution, finish a project, any project. I decided that this was the weekend that I was going to finish James’ afghan.
I’ve been working on it for over two months, and I’m down to the last little bit. I ran out of Boysenberry yarn, so yesterday I headed out to Wal-Mart to see if it was back in stock. It wasn’t, and I don’t know when it will be back. I still want to crochet though.
There goes that resolution.
I started two new projects yesterday. I’m working on a door draft dodger for the front door, and an all green afghan for Dylan. Hopefully the shades of green yarn will stay in stock.
What about you… How are you doing with your new year’s resolutions?
I’ve been working on this crocheted afghan for almost a month. It is really starting to look like a blanket. I pack it along with me when I’m waiting for the boys to get out of school, and I work on it in the evenings too.
The kiddos have been asking for afghans too, and James has already claimed this one as his. I see a lot of crocheting in my future. I hope I get some more yarn for Christmas.
I have been crocheting for over a month now, and I can’t stop. It is so much fun, and it is a great little project to work on in the evenings too. I have been making lots of scarves, pot holders, and I’ve started working on an afghan too. I need to make a yarn run though.
So much fun, but now I don’t want to do anything else…
