spiral blanket - I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get a photo of the whole thing.  but here it is where you can see the center and how it morphs from a spiral to a square.  and a picture of the corners folded into the center.

an update on the fox scarf, which is meant to be wrapped around the neck with both ends in front, but vera decided it was too hot the day she modeled it for me

here is the update on where i am at with lyla's blanket.

to answer your question tammy, i'm going to get it to a point where there are enough rows to make it mostly square, then edged with a round of single crochet in the gray. then i'll do a round of the other colors, one set of rounds to be a wheel of each color to finish the edging, which will give it an additional 3 or so inches on all 4 sides.  not that any of that might make sense, but i'll be posting pictures.

for those who asked, each color set is about 5".  the total width right now is about 24" but it's coming along nicely.  I will add a 5" boarder on all sides so it will be nearly 36" square.

i figured i'd show y'all how i presented the blanket to kate. it just "came together" as it were.

i had a "thirty-one" brand tote bag she wanted. it is more of an organizer than actual tote bag, but i have one i use for crocheting.  so here you go.  lyla anne's "penguin flower".

for an idea of the number of stitches, each coiled petal in the center has 14 stitches in it, and each of the 4 large back petals have 16 plus the picot at the top, then a single in each stitch with 5 in the picot.

that is very cute in a variegated yarn.  What are you thinking of doing with them?  Besides making one for a friend that is.  It could make a cute border on a baby sweater.  Or receiving blanket.
Title: Re: My Crochet Projects Part 6
Post by: bayou girl on Apr 11, 2016, 09:58:15 PM
tammy, they are too intricate (too many steps) to make for a border on anything. i'd go nuts!  but i was thinking they'd be nice on a headband or something like that. or for a collar.  or maybe a half flower for a collar edging.  we'll see. mostly i wanted to know i could do it!

Sheri, somewhere I have a photo of the jellyfish Linda did, as well as the "instruction" sheet for the kids, which is a cute little rhyme kind of thing.

speaking of jellyfish.  I finished Lyla's.  So here is a photo of Lyla's and Zoe's side by side.  They weren't hanging high enough for them to have the tentacles hanging free.  the hanger can be either cut off or stuffed inside to make them "play friendly" and the tentacles are tied on with a hard knot.

a project isn't mine if I haven't frogged something.  It's good that you went back and fixed it.  You will be so much happier with it now if you are like me.

it would not have laid down if i had not gone back to fix it. there was just no way.  i had quite a few extra stitches in there.  that said, due to diligence the last 3 days, i'm back up to row 9.  i'll finish it in the next week.

I've had doilies like that.  I'm constantly fussing at them trying to get them to lay down. 
Title: Re: My Crochet Projects Part 6
Post by: bayou girl on Sep 06, 2016, 08:51:32 PM
it still isn't going to lay well without blocking and starching, but i like it anyway.  here it is now that i'm past the "frogging" and into "new" thread

Pineapples are like that.  It's the long chains in the pattern I think.
