Crocheting Update!!!!

I feel like I got nothing done and a lot done at the same time this week.

1st: Finished connecting red,orange,yellow,green,and blue. Started back on the purple.

3rd: Finished purple at 6:30am. I had stayed up all night from the 2nd. Later in the day I started connecting the red,orange,yellow,green,blue and purple. 

4th: Finished connecting the red,orange,yellow,green,blue, and purple. Started adding the white inner border. 

5th: Bought yarn to make a Dr.Who scarf for my friend Dave. The yarn colors I got are Mulberry,Nutmeg,Chocolate,Sungold,Coffee,Terra Cotta, and Toasted Almond. I also bought some heart shaped stitch markers. 

Since the 5th I have been working on the white inner border. I am on row 4 of 24. After I finish with the white inner border I will start on the sky blue outer border. Then when I finish the blanket I will start on the Dr.Who scarf.

Weekly Crochet Update

Another week of crocheting.

24th: Started on green.

25th: Bought white and purple yarn. Got sky blue yarn from room mate's girlfriend.

26th: Finished green. Connected red,orange,yellow,and green. Started on purple. Bought blue. Started on blue.
I had to start on the purple until I could buy the blue later that night. Did not want to waste any time that could be spent crocheting. As soon as I got the blue yarn I started working on it.

28th: Finished blue.

29th: Restarted blue.
When I went to connect the blue with the red,orange,yellow,and green, I realized the blue was WAY to long. I took it apart and started over.

31st: Finished blue. Started back on Purple. Started connecting red,orange,yellow,green,and blue.
The 31st is my sister Candace's daughter Lucia's 1st birthday. I finished the blue but did not take the connected parts of the blanket with me to my sisters, but I did take the purple, so I started on it. When I got home after the party, I started connecting the blue to the rest of the blanket. Have not finished connecting yet.

Well that is the progress I have made so far with crocheting for this week. Sorry the blog is late. Like I said, my sister's daughter's 1st birthday. I did not get home until late, so I did not get much work done on my blanket.

Weekly Crochet Update

I have decided to post a blog each week that tells of the progress I have made in my crocheting projects. If you would like to keep up with my crocheting progress on a daily basses, you can fallow my crocheting tumblr.

March 17th: Started on red section, finished red section, started on orange section.

I got a lot done that day. I stayed up for 24 hours that day. Not to crochet, I just could not sleep, so I did end up getting a lot of work done on the Rainbow Dash Blanket.

March 20th: Finished orange section.

The orange section was a bit bothersome. I lost count of stitches at some point and made it too long.

March 21st: Connect orange section to red section.

More complications with the orange. With it being too long, i thought I would cut off some, and make it the right size. Some how I cut off too much. Though with a little patients I used some yarn I had set aside and fixed the issue, it looks just fine now.

March 22nd: Started on the yellow section.

Was a lot more careful about counting the stitches with the yellow section.

Marchy 23rd: Finished the yellow section, Connect the red orange and yellow section.

It is starting to look more like a rainbow now, though still not like a blanket.

March 24th: Started on green.

Started on the green section this morning.

Well, that's it. One week of progress. It's amazing. In one week I have started on 4 sections, and completed and connected 3 sections. Each section is 7 rows 8 if you count the connection row, and each row is 700 stitches long. This means that so far, not counting the progress I have made on the green section that I have stitched 16,800 stitches in the past week. That is amazing when you think about it.

An entry form the zombie Apocalypse

The sun sets tonight. As red as the stains that mar my cloths. The blood of both friends and family cover my white dress. I came into this fight a girl, with nothing but my guns, and so much fear. I leave a woman, ready to defend what is left of humanity.
