Show Your WIP's Here!

Thanks! I was playing around with the way I hold the hook last night, and I usually hold it like a pencil, but when I hold it with the head pointing upward, it doesn't hurt as much.

A crochet blanket in Koigu?! Your mom must be loaded!

Shay, that blue afghan!

I have a ripple afghan in similar shades of blue that my Grandma made and I it. But the star pattern is just fabulous!

and very determined!!! it is the prettiest, softest, most amazing WIP I've ever seen. I didn't even ASK her how much its costing total. I just hope to inherit it someday!!!!!

I'm sure it's nice! I've never even thought about crocheting a blanket with a knitting yarn, only a wool blend, like the ripple in my photo. That's made with Plymouth Encore. The other 2 are made with Red Heart (tweed and supersaver, from left to right), which I wouldn't even think about knitting with.

Any chance you could snag a pic of her work?

I'm going to try to get her to lay out all the squares to see if I can get a pic. I'll see her Sunday.....

[Braden]

Great! Give her my best!

I love the granny square one that you made out of sage mary yarn....very pretty.

Thanks, but the colorway is actually "Watercolor"

This is an afghan I made using the Lace Medallion pattern by Priscilla Hewitt.

ContiKnitter, go to Flickr and type search for babette afghan. There is a group on Flickr dedicated to this, but I can't remember the name. It's a beautiful blanket that was originally shown in pattern in Koigu. That's some money, I tell you what.

Shay, I love your round and star ripples. I wanna make one, too.
