2024 Project Recap

I think going forward I will use this blog to do yearly recaps of my projects. That way I know I will get at least 1 new post a year :D

Here is 2024!

From top to bottom, left to right.

Mauve-A-Lous Duster Cardi – I LOVE how this turned out. My favorite project of the year.

Sail Away Kimono – Most difficult and required significant pattern adjustments, but worth it in the end.

Blockparty – My favorite pattern / yarn combo, Toni yarn, with a Tinna pattern, chef’s kiss!

Elmore Blanket – The surprisingly only baby blanket I made last year.

Solomon’s Knot Tank Top – The “I really hope this doesn’t fuzz a ton when I wear it this summer, I may have used the wrong type of yarn for this” project, stay tuned for verdict in project notes.

Easy Essentials Tee – The “Wrong side is the Right side” project, I liked the reverse side look better than the front, so that is how I will wear it :)

Coraza shawls!

Ava Shell Tank Top – I went to Flock Fiber Festival and only allowed myself to find a yarn to use for the top most color of this top because I ran out of all the others.

More Coraza shawls!

Coffee Bean Beanie – The Jury is still out on this one, I am worried it will stretch I think I made the brim too wide, but I love the colors and pattern, would make again.

Easy Ribbed Chunky Sweater – Most at Risk of partial frogging, I seamed the collar and arm holes a bit too tight, I really like it but I took away the stretch in those places, I need to fix that. cause I really want to wear this more.

And there we have it!

Project Update 2: Squares Blanket

I have a short update on my squares blanket project, I have completed 29 squares so far out of the 77 I need total, so still got lots to do but I wanted to share some new photos of them with the added orange color.

First Project: Squares Blanket

So excited for my first really big project, it is a squares blanket, and the pattern I am following is by Drops Design and is called Bohemian Oasis Blanket.

I will be updating my new Projects Section page for it as I go, where I will have more photos and update on my progress!

It is going super well so far I am enjoying making each square, since they go quick it gives the illusion of satisfaction that I am 1 square closer to the 77 I need in total!

My First Chunky Blanket

I wanted to share some more photos of the blanket I finished this week. I had a ton of chunky yarn (Link) and have been trying to find a blanket pattern that was simple to learn and did not take weeks to complete. I am super happy about how it turned out!

I would say it ended up about 4 feet x 4 feet, give or take cause its rather stretchy. Great for curling up on the couch, now to make sure Chester Cat does not get his fur all over it ;)
