A hit, a veritable hit!!!

Well, I'm happy.

A minor milestone in the quest for completing the blanket squares has been reached - I've done over a 1/4 of the 884 squares needed.

As of today, I've knitted (and washed) 245 squares.
*whew*.

I think I'm going to take a break from knitting the squares for a few days.
Then I'll see if I can get another 20 done before the end of the month. Well, since I've already got 5 started on needles, I MIGHT be able to do it.
*grin*.

I do realise I haven't posted a picture of a bunch of the squares all mixed together, but I'll do it next month. I'm a bit busy with coursework (and really shouldn't have done this post.).

Bye for now.

p.s. I forgot to add some info on the post below (previously posted)- that bracelet isn't particularly chunky, it's small, so it looks VERY chunky - I made it for myself and my wrist is 5-1/2 inches around - the bracelet is about 6-1/2 inches on the inner circumferance.

A Finished Bracelet

I like this.
It didn't turn out quite how I wanted it to, but it wasn't for lack of trying. I started and ripped this bracelet at least 6 times. I strung and re-strung the beads and chips 4 times and finally came up with a result that wasn't ugly.

Here it is, after 6 months of work:


A gem chip and clear glass size 11 bead crocheted bracelet. The gem chips are grey moonstone and "white" labradorite. The blue flashes don't show up very well in the picture.

There are also "white" labradorite cubes and small frosted clear glass cubes in the bracelet.

And yes, if you're thinking it, that white paper is exactly what it looks like. But it created the right background for the colours in the stones to photograph correctly.

Bye for now.
