Crocheting

So I started crocheting again when Toby was in the hospital. I spent months just randomly doing dishrags, uneven stitches, unable to follow patterns. Then took a break over the holidays and recently started back again.

My biggest projects to date have been afgans, so far I have made the following (in order):
-Blue green Bernat yarn afghan for cousin Katey (first blanket)
-Pink/yellow Bernat yarn afghan for Terri (both measuring around 36")
-Navy, light blue, sage green, white afgan for cousin Jenny
-White, purple, water colors, green blanket for cousin Karen (it was 38")
-Blue, red, pink, off white birthstone blanket for my sister, Rachel (it was 42")
-My first granny square blanket that I half double crocheted together, my biggest one completed yet. It was turquoise, sungold, red, ivory, tera cotta, green, birthstones of my sister-in law's family.


I am currently working on a flower granny square blanket for my daughter that I found on another blog (attic 24), it will have 94 squares, 12 large and the rest small. I'm also making my son a texas orange granny square afgan as well. I'm also working on little things to keep my interest in between.




In the near future I want to make a cushion cover in granny squares. Here are some other things I have done (minus the 100+ dishrags :)
