Ok I am pretty much giving up on the squares and here is why…

This year I made a promise to myself that I will finish every project I start. But the granny squares are just not in my cards this year. Maybe net year but this year nope not gunna happen here. And I love to use my Saturdays for starting new projects. That is about how long it takes me to finish a blnaket.  So this is now Blanket start Saturday. I will post the finished project of last week and then I will share what the new project is for the week for me.

So this week I am just about to finish the C2C and I will post pics tomorrow and today I am starting the pattern fromm redheart.com called dusty snowflake. There is a video for right and left handed uploaded by the Crochet Crowd. And on the video MIkey will walk you threw the entire pattern. I will post a link below for the written pattern and the video.

I hope all is well with you and have a wonderfully crafty weekend!

It is Square it Saturday BUT…

It is Square it Saturday but I have a bit of an issue. All my yarn is already spoken for and I cannot use it for other projects. So I was thinking well lets get my other craft I love so much here. So today I will be doing a paper craft tutorial. Not sure of what just yet. Need to wait on the hubbs to wake up so I can go craft and not worry if the kids will take over my house. It may be a picture tutorial or it may be a video tutorial. I do not know yet. You will have to come back and check later on to see what I come up with.

Oh and I have not given up on crochet. I cannot do that. I live for yarn. Right now I am working on a C2C in 2 shades of purple and black. This is a just for me project something to do to keep me off of pintrest and what not. I will have a link to the video I used to start and help with the C2C. (It is from Mikey. Oh and if you want come over to my Facebook page if you are doing the CAL is the Crochet Crowd and show off your squares so far.) Have a crafty weekend and stay warm and safe!
