one week has gone by

wowza i cant believe its been one week already i have been busy with work & my project im making & a small road trip to my sister & her family that i havent really thought about bogging what i have been doing.

a couple weeks a go i learned how to make granny squares i also have a pattern to make a granny square throw blanket which i like because i dont have to attach alot of squares together which i like the little granny squares attached as a big blanket

i decided that since my sister has inspired me to learn more crocheting stitches & to learn how to read a pattern i would make her a blanket with what i have recently learned ie granny squares i started off making a bunch of squares to attach to make a blanket the colors chosen are purple green & black the shades of purpe & green are the halloween shades well i got a good chunk of squares done when for some odd reson i changed my mind & started the granny square throw blanket im still not sure why i did but i did & im sticking to that decision

so i start it sometime this week my sister knows she is getting this blanket & what it looks like i went to see her last night (she ran the st. george marathon this morning she is awesome & so is her family) i got on the subject of the blanket & i wasnt to happy with it she put me in my place which was needed so thank you for doing that at that time it was just an over sized square every time i looked at it i would think what am i thinking this is never going to look like a blanket its just going to be one huge over sized square it never seemed to be getting significantly bigger till today i did 3 rounds which isnt alot but it made a difference i have been working on it for a few more hours now (it is a very tedious time consuming blanket) it is looking more like a blanket then an over sized square it got me thinking i always do this (i have known the single crochet for years now) every time i make a blanket i look at it & think this is never going to get bigger that throws me into would if i dont make it the right size or they dont like it just a bunch of useless worry probably for nothing then after a while when i do look at the blanket good it has gotten huge & i dont worry to much after that

after a break from the blanket for my sister im not as worried as i was im learning slowly but surely that if i like what i make than im sure the person receiving it will like it too
