At the end of a busy day
I enjoy sitting down and working on something.
Recently THIS is what it's been.
Lots of pretty yarn
and rows and rows of crochet stitching!!
I do NOT need another afghan.
But...
I DO NEED this calm and peaceful project
at the end of my DAY!!!
:)
This afghan is made with the spike stitch.
A very simple stitch
that makes a simple afghan INTERESTING!
Now it's YOUR turn!!!
What are YOU making this week??
nice afghan. I should make something similar with all my yarn scraps.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I love all those colors.
ReplyDeleteCrocheting isn't my favorite activity but my granddaughter would like me to make her a bigger one than the one she currently has (she's 6 and she's using a baby afghan.) I'm going to be checking my stash of books for an afghan if she doesn't like one I made years ago (hum, maybe 30 or 40!) If she does I need to do a bit of repair work on it, wash it and then she can have it. It's wool and that may be a problem. Plus it is heavy. It's made of hexagon granny squares. I'll show it to her on T-Day. Enjoy your week and don't work too hard.
ReplyDeleteThis week - I need to STOP rearranging the blocks on my design wall (notably the barnyard blocks) and start sewing the rows together for my OMMS project!
ReplyDeleteThat crochet stitch does make it look great
ReplyDeleteThere is something so relaxing about yarn crafts.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so nice in that stitch. That is a great project for relaxing.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like crochet to calm the mind and body and just rest. Quilting sure doesn't do that for me with it's constant movement up/down and around. I will pull out a project - thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteYour afghan is lovely. I bet it is relaxing to work on at night.
ReplyDeleteLove your afghan! I am a crocheter as well! Thank you so much for hosting Monday Making!
ReplyDeleteTemps are just starting to cool down where I am, and I'm thinking I could definitely use another afghan. Could you possibly share the pattern?
ReplyDeleteI went to youtube and found a tutorial for the spike stitch. Happy stitching! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCw3Va7NEUc&t=197s
DeleteLove your beautiful Afghan..I'm making grannies for an afghan.
