Granny Ripple

Are you working on some stash busting projects??? If you are please add your link below :)

Oh Wednesday!

Granny Ripple!

Just love this afghan! So easy to work up. About to be at the halfway point with this one now. Then to add an edging to it. :) I am using Red Heart yarn in Aran, Med Thyme, and Windsor Blue. I am making it 3 rows of Aran and then 5 rows each of Windsor Blue and Med Thyme.

Ribbon Afghan!

This one is also a lot of fun to make. :) Such an easy pattern. Once you have the first couple of rows done, its just a repeat the rest of the way through. I am not sure of all the names of the colors in this one. I am just using up a lot of my stash yarn for it.

I have another skein of a brown color, that I am considering adding to the mix in this one. I have two shades of brown in it now, and Aran. I have tons of skeins of Aran. So I guess I will be using that in a lot of my scrap along projects.

 I have not done any more work on the scarf I posted about earlier. I will get back to it again soon. :) Been really wanting to work on these two afghans.....

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Back to School :)

 The kids were finally able to go back to school today. They were out all week last week due to snow and ice. Kyra was happy to go back and see her friends at school. Sean on the other hand, was not to thrilled. He has exams to make up now.

Mr Noah playing with his favorite toy.

Do you remember this one? I posted about it not to long ago. This is my Granny Ripple. I picked it back up to add a few rows on it. :)

This afghan isn't as wide as I normally do, so I think I will be adding an edging to it when I get finished. I am aiming for it to fit a twin sized bed.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Setting Some Goals!

With the New Year here! It is time to set some goals!  And one of my goals is to use up all the yarn I have. :)

I have collected a lot of yarn. LOL! And it needs to be used up. So below you see my first 3 projects of 2011. Both afghans are being made up from stash yarn only. :)

This is my ribbon afghan. I am using up the yarn that was left from Kyra's ripple afghan. But I have also found a few more colors I had on hand to use on it as well. The pattern for this afghan can be found at The aventures of the Gingerbread Lady Blog.  This pattern looks like it will be a great way to use up a bunch of yarn :)

This is my Granny Ripple Afghan. This pattern can be found at Ravelry.  I have a few skeins of the green and blue in my stash as well as the soft white. :) Hopefully there is enough to make a medium sized afghan.

  My final project is a scarf. The red strip is done, except for weaving in the ends. the white strip is barly started. the white strip will eventually interlock with the red strip, and then I will be adding a strip of black.
This I am making from yarn that my dad and step mom gave me. They came up for a visit recently and brought me a rubbermade tote full of yarn. Most of it is red, black and white which are the school colors for where they live.

  Have a wonderful day everyone!
