Fall crochet block swap, sign ups until Oct 15th

[Kassaundra]

I only weave mine in and leave them at that, do a lot of people secure them with glue?

I don't know what others do, but I do weave mine as I crochet the next round, but I then go back and put a drop on fabric glue on the tail that is still exposed and trim it, so it can't work it's way to the front side of the work.

Ok, here are some pictures so you can see the change.

First... how they were last week.



And now, how they look in the box that is now gone.



If you click on the picture, it will get bigger and you can see the new colors better.

Hope y'all like 'em.

Very nice lacey blues, I like them both ways.

 

[Alethea]

Lovely squares.

 

[BtownChickMom]

Wow, Lacy Blues!! I liked them before, but that little bit of variegated yarn just makes them pop. Very nice!

 

[Lacy Blues]

Aw, shucks! Thank you.

Still plugging on. I don't think I'll be able to post pictures before I send squares. I'm at DS and his computer so not sure I can send pics from here. You know how it is with others things.

Lots of bad news these days but will keep plugging away.

Thanks again to whoever suggested hamiltonbooks.com. Hands down the best crochet books I have ever gotten. Just ordered 2 more.

I'm 80% done with the Hurricane Afghan I started when the lights went out here. Power was restored yesterday at just about exactly 8 days after it went out. I've done 89 out of 110 squares - all traditional granny squares, 5 rounds in solid colors, edged in black. When I get it all done, I'll post a picture. I've wanted to do this for years. I had gotten a bunch of scrap yarn from ebay a while back and the crochet swap inspired me to finally DO this project. I'm so happy with the way it's coming together.

There are not enough hours in the day to crochet everything I want to make, and have yarn for...

Your welcome, it is by far the best book source I have ever found.

Rancher it is okay, I'll post pics for you when I get them. I'm sorry you have got more bad news, hope it turns around soon for you.

Kassaundra-I'm moving & will send you the new address when I've settled. It would be helpful if you not send the squares to my current address.

Rancher-Are you ok? I'm sending merit.
