Blanket WIPs

Thank you so much for the sweet comments you leave for me and the encouragement and inspiration I am getting from this little blogland of ours!!

Today I thought, I will post about my blanket WIPs. For that extra little push to complete them and also for the sheer pleasure of photographing them!!

I have started a new stripy baby blankie!! No I am not expecting.. While going to my parents home this time I forgot to take some colours I needed for my Granny Square Afghan. So started making this baby blanket with the colours I had. Otherwise nine hours in the car without my crochet is boooring!! I will decide what to do with it later. Right now just enjoying making it!!


Next are these cheerful little squares. I have decided to turn these into another baby blanket.


Last but not the least my Granny Square Blanket!! Can you notice some changes in there? Yeah!! I have included some large squares in between and I lovvve the effect!!


I kept this on our doorstep for Diwali ( Festival of Lights, celebrated in India).


Happy Halloween to all!!Have a great day!!

Progress Pictures

I just thought I will peep in and show you some progress pictures of my granny throw and blankie!!
Lets see the blanket first!!





I know I went a bit overboard with taking pictures of these candy squares!!
Before I show you  pictures of the throw, a small update!! After making so many squares, I realized that the light brown colour I was using in some squares was some other brand, which was not at all soft. So decided to re-do the squares that has that colour. Progress so far.


A lot of brown in there right??Need to balance it with some bright squares like the one below.


I plan to keep both these projects aside and make something for instant gratification this weekend. Will show you next week!!
My Granny Goes Shopping bag was featured in Tangled Happy. Thank you so much Sara@Tangled Happy!! It was also the most viewed project here. So pleased!!
Have a great weekend!!

One a Day


Remember, I had mentioned in an earlier post that I have joined One a Day@Gingerbread Girl to finish my Granny throw

Well, I started it last Sunday. Have made 9 squares so far.


 I am also weaving in ends of the granny squares I had already made before joining this CAL. That is also being done one a day. Will post progress pictures of the another afghan I am working on in my next post.
Before leaving, let me show you some flowers the husband bought me yesterday!! Have a nice day!!
