Karan, I am square disabled... no matter what I do, I can't get myself to make squares right now...Can I maybe do hats too? One for each baby? I want to do something, but I need to pick one swap and stick with it and I am a little afraid of what SE will do if I drop the Spring swap (jk SE, I don't *think* you would lock me in the hooch closet.

)

But...I am not sure I can even handle making 30+ circles for that swap....

but I can do circles better than I can do squares...and I can't afford to buy any more yarn right now...just have to use what I've got...oops...did I write that out loud? Maybe I should have PMed this... ....

Thanks the booties look like fun... I have several baby colors so I will probably start practicing.

I will probably do hats first since I am pretty sure I can do those quicker....anyway, I have some time at least...

 

[karanleaf]

You betcha Rocket.

Thanks again that's really great of you.

Of course you are Darlene!! Consider yourself in the same category as one of my daughters..five of them and I still get them mixed up

I just finished reading the directions for the throw. Now that sounds really nice. I would like to give that one a try.

No worries!!!

Yeah, try the booties, you can see from the pattern that they are striaght across then sew and flip inside out..you can leave off the front/back post border if you want and have it plain in the sc, would not look much different. That was an easy pattern. I probably gotcha covered with the squares anyway, I did 10 more last night so I already have 20 and the only yarn I have is that pea green until my joann's stuff comes in. I have had to stay with the F hook though and that makes 3 perfect rounds to be 3 1/2". I think LC that pattern looks like to me the joining together is a sc ridge..on that cotton sugar and cream afghan I made months back..the blue and yellow squares..I joined it the same way, holding two squares together and scing..makes a ridge...there was no "border" around the square...if that is the case you might not want anyone to border their square, it will be too big and you'll be stuck with ripping it out. Looked to me like the same way of joining, like I had done...found it in my photobucket..see the raised ridge...

if that is the pattern, which is how it looks to me, then you won't need for anyone to border their squares in the sc lamb color or you won't be able to join it correctly...jez sayin...
Wild your squares are soooo cute!! Those colors are so sweet together..nice work!!

I think I have the blue ordered so that should be here sometime. Bet Scoot has like half a dozen baby hats done already!!! She is a true speed hooker!!​
