Two Purposes
I'm busy making this blanket for Abigail to keep her warm on these cold nights. Sometimes working on a project serves two purposes, and if one of them is to keep myself warm then I'm all for progress. That's not too selfish, is it?
I've got a red wool shawl underway here. Of course, I'm at the point of trying to decide whether I am done, or if I need to add another half skein. Drat. I guess I need to go look at the forecast for the next week, eh? ;-)
Right there with you Tracy...right there with you...
I, too, am working on a blanket. It certainly comes in handy doesn't it!?!?!
ReplyDeleteI've always felt the same way when crocheting an afghan for someone else :o)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, the colours are gorgeous!
Beautiful colors!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plan to me!
ReplyDeleteIf it is too selfish, quilters everywhere are guilty!
ReplyDeleteI love when an afghan gets big enough to keep me warm while crocheting!
ReplyDeletebeautiful colors... are these colors in Abigails' bedroom???
ReplyDeleteMimi,
ReplyDeleteShe has muted versions of these colors in her room, but I figure there's no harm in some bright accessories!
The bright colors are fun! My girls enjoy them in their room!
ReplyDeleteI am working on a shawl and it is a way to keep warm!
I think it is the blessing of working on something like this...I like your choice of colors, Tracy.

Not selfish at all - it looks so nubby an cozy. I like the color combo, too.
ReplyDeleteNot selfish. And very pretty!
ReplyDeleteVery lovely!!
