Someday there may be enough squares to make an afghan.
I need more solid squares...I will work on them in the next few days before the next design is released.
I also had a little bit of time to work on knitting on my socks. Soon I may have a finished pair to photograph!
My other baby brother stopped by. I gave him the wood carving I finished for him.
It is a wood carving of a Fireman, my other baby brother was a Fireman for many years. He liked it!

Oh, I love that wood carving!
ReplyDeleteYou are so talented!!! That fireman is awesome...you did a beautiful job on him! Your blanket squares are so pretty! Did you use a green for the border? I love it! You are far ahead of me. Someone asked how many more I had to go and I said I have no idea! LOL! One step at a time! It is fun and I agree...I have learned a lot by crocheting these various squares. I am a better crocheter than I was because of it. So glad you posted a picture of your squares. Did you use worsted yarn? I should have as the DK is a little flimsy. I haven't touched my socks...good for you! You motivate me! Unfortunately I got the quilting urge this week so off I go on another tangent! LOL! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThat carving is just precious!
ReplyDeleteI think this winter I'll make myself an afghan. You have inspired me. And I sure like that cute little fireman. Who wouldn't love it? :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the crocheting sample squares. Wonderful colors. Like the fireman, too.
ReplyDeleteYour wood carving is simply divine! You do amazing work.
ReplyDeleteThe CAL squares look great. It's fun to learn new techniques and stitches. Love the Fireman!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great post to showcase your incredible talent. That fireman is wonderful. We have several firefighters in our family who would love him. I'll bet your other baby brother loved it.
ReplyDeleteThose squares are wonderful. Seeing them on blogs makes me wish I had joined in with you all. Love the colors and all of the stitches.
Blessings,

The colors in your squares are just beautiful! My mom had a collection of carved sailors that I still have that look just like your fireman. I know she paid a fortune for them. You are very talented!!!!

ReplyDeleteI recently rediscovered crocheting granny squares and I couldn't believe how many "new" patterns there are now! Your wooden fireman is awesome!
