YOP13 wk1 : Welcome back Erin

Please post your blog link below.

I am back again…. I have no excuse so lets just move on. This is my ….. ‘I don’t know what year’ doing A Year of Projects. Lets just say its been a while…. like me posting….. I’m in and out…. I mostly lurk 😁
Oh I’m Erin by the way ….. for all you newbies.

So this year for a year of projects I decided to make things I want or can use. I have yarn balls, almost full skeins and full skeins that are taking up 2 shelves in a cabinet I need for other stuff. when I go to a store, I see a color I like and I buy or think I need it for a project when I already have it at home its just buried under other skeins. I haven’t bought yarn that I didn’t need (ie etsy orders) for almost 2 years. Hence the time away. I haven’t been in the mood to crochet for fun.

Oh and I am definitely finishing my Sophie’s Universe blanket!

I will be working on a few tops for myself. One I started a few years ago that I recently found. I thought I frogged it. I plan on making another one but in a different color. The yarn I used is from a store that no longer in business, A.C. Moore. 😦 The other is called Cold Shoulder Top . I will add photos soon. Then there is Easy Waterfall Cardigan. Crocheting the same stitch over and over again makes me bored. So that one has been sitting about half done since mid-April.

Happy July. I cant wait to see what you all have made! 🙂

Is anyone watching “The Rise of the Pink Ladies ” on Paramount + ? I watched the first episode and haven gone pack yet. I plan to though. Since Grease is my favorite movie.

Coming back soon

Its been a while. I will be posting new stuff soon.

Ravelry’s A Year of Projects year 12 is coming to an end on the 30th of June so I will be posting my list of projects / stash busting ideas the first Sunday in July. I haven’t crocheted anything except for my etsy orders for the past few years . I always had fun posting and reading other blogs .

Here is the Charlie Brown scarf I made last year for an order. I love the chevron look of this scarf.

I scheduled a Throwback Thursday post for next week ( 5/18) . Be sure to check that out.

A Year of Projects year 11, week 1

I have returned! I haven’t posted anything since January 2020. Wow! What a year that was. And if you were wondering… I have made it this long with out getting covid 😁

I barely crocheted anything in the past year and a half. Hat orders for etsy and a few C2C projects. One that I have to finish is… if you have read my blog before…. the FRIENDS blanket. I finished ‘ The One with the Magna Doodle’ and I am now working on ‘ The One with Phoebe’s guitar ‘. Yes its blue. I have not seen one like it. And Phoebe actually used a blue guitar . Its on YouTube as Ross scares Phoebe.

I need to close up a few letters.

I like this soooo much!

InCoWriMo 2020, you in?

So International Correspondence Writing Month  starts in a week (The month of February)  .

For the past few weeks I’ve been collecting pen pals in a few Facebook groups. I love writing . I had a few pen pals in my late teens. One I kept writing to until my early 20 and for some reason that I can not remember , we lost touch. I recently found his address online and sent him a card…. I hope he writes back 🙂 I also plan to write a few family members and a friend Ive had for 18 years who lives in Australia.

Back to InCoWriMo….. the idea is to write a letter or post card to people for the month of February. That’s 29 days and 29 people.

A Month of Letters is another site where you can find people to write to during February or all year long. Its up to you. You can make a profile and add friends.

I have my stationary, stickers, and envelopes and a few other supplies all ready to go from a swap I participated in on ravelry !

 

See you in February ……
