No backstitching means quicker finish. I ran out of a red thread, but as usual I had it in my stash.
Onto my next project: Garnet Fairy. As I finally have all of the specialty threads.
I started this a while ago. The Marcelle afghan. But I was running out of yarn on the final round. Put it away for a while. Then forgot where I put my pattern. Found it again. Frogged everything and redid it with a smaller hook. Also messed up on round 71 four times and didn't realize it until round 73... There were only 74 rounds. 2nd pic is it on my queen bed. Now to pick a new project...
Month: February Spent: 34.80 Earned: 0 My two projects this month were the peacocks and the mystery CAL from yarnspirations. I also succumbed to ABC Stitch's 20% off sale. I did stick to the clearance page. A few things I saw had gone by the time I decided to actually order something.
So I've started working on the Aran Hearts Afghan for the wedding present in September. Probably best I started this early because I keep dropping stitches. Got through the entire popcorn section and half of the 2nd arrows when I realized I had dropped 2 after the first arrow section. Say hello to my new floss organization system. I had outgrown my old one of snack bags on rings (I'll still keep those for projects rather than my master set) and got the cabinets this weekend. Ran out of labels so I had to stop on that part of the project. Boyfriend is currently sorting the floss I had in plastic bags. The cabinets are a bit wobbly at the moment, but he'll probably make me a frame we can anchor them to. On another note, I've started contributing articles to footballinhighheels.com .
