YOP 4 week 47



I AM DONE WITH THE SQUARES for the Boston Bruins Blanket!!!!!!!!

It was fun making them but the project is coming to an end. I have to block them and sew them together. But that can wait a few months. The squares take up less room than the blanket would .


Doesn't look like much does it?

 I have 2 gallon size bags of the 2 in squares. you can see one of them on the bottom. The other bag separates the yellow. 
Pretty!
 I am glad I made the solid granny instead of the traditional. 

Like I mentioned in a past post, I am going to make numbers to add to the blanket for my favorite players. I believe I will have enough room. 

Hook Challenge update: I have a few projects to go. I have to stop switching out projects. I just want to be able to say I finished. Unlike last year and YOP5 I will be adding more . 

I made this Remembrance Poppy a few days ago. I used an F hook. Ive been using that hook alot for the Lily Pond Blanket. 

I have another project in mind using the same hook . Since Monday is Memorial Day, I couldn't resist making a poppy.

    Love the Poppy, and well done on finishing all the squares. It's so satisfying to come to the end of a big project like that. :)

YOP year 5? Seriously?

I can't believe it's year 5 already....... this is my 3rd year participating. The last few days have been productive for me .I made a schedule for the next few months so I stay on track. I STARTED and  FINISHED the Zero lovey that was part of my hook challenge. It will be given to my cousin Ryder ( I really like that name ) due in October. I played with the pictures a little in editing. Its something different. ****** I got on the C2C bandwagon and started a few of my own. It is so addicting!! I love this!  I ran out of yarn for this one........ so I started this one. ( full skein not pictured)  ****** Also, I "dusted off" the Boston Bruin Blanket squares and started sewing them together. Its a bit tricking as you can see.... Why do I punish myself.. hehe my full project list can be found here .
