Project #1- Finished!


  • Wow.  I finally finished a crocheting project.  My ends are all tied in and it looks cute if I do say so myself!  I wish I could starch it, but I'm nervous about ironing the yarn.  We'll see how it looks next week.  I managed to buy some yarn to make blankets for both of my boys.  Now I just need to pick a pattern and get started.  Here are some pictures of the table runner I made for the dining room table!



The framed print is from one of my favorite artists and I bought it with my Grandma at his gallery in Arizona.  It's how I picked the colors for the table runner!



I also realized during this project I kind of like motif crocheting.  Luckily my library can order me  in a book with over 200 motifs.  I'm excited.  My idea is to pick  a motif that I can use my extra yarn on from already finished projects.  I usually use the same yarn (Lion Brand- Vanna White mostly, if you're curious!) so that makes it easy to put together a project of some kind with the leftovers!
