Welcome to CF and the crochet forum

I have posted a couple of pics re: that memory afghan I mentioned earlier ~ it is so easy!

It can be made to any size, and using scraps of yarn (any amount) from all your projects.

SC 10 ~ ch 1; braid the chains when you are done, just looping one one through the other all the way up.

Finish by securing the end loops at both ends as you crochet the border

Here in the UK we have Woman's Weekly magazine and this week it features a crochet blanket pattern if anyone is interested

Cool will check it out!

Thanks
It is fast and fun and a great way to use up scrap yarn!

I've finally finished my blanket - after nearly 5 years! It looks so tiny!

This is the overall picture of the blanket

This is the flip-side of the blanket

This is what the edge looks like.
​

I ended up waiting until MC was asleep and then spent the last couple of nights finishing the edge.

So now I'm going to finish off a cardigan I was making while I was pregnant. I have to just make the arms and put it all together.

Beautiful!!
What yarn did you use?

 

[cweinstein]

I haven't crocheted in a bit because of carpal tunnel in my right wrist and arm due to a job hazard - too much computer. The carpal tunnel brace makes it very awkward to crochet, and use the computer, type, etc.

The yarn was Patons Fab DK baby wool. I ended up giving it to a mom to be who was having a little girl.

This is very true - when I did the bulk of the blanket it was at a time when I couldn't sleep. So it kept me occupied until sleep caught up with my mind.

I've been out of the loop for a while, but I decided to come back. I'm a long time crocheter, actually about half my life now. Huh, little more than half my life.

Welcome back

Do you have any projects going?

 

[GodFlute2]

Not at the moment.... thinking about starting a placemat set, but I don't know what color or pattern to do. Suggestions?

 

[servant of Merciful Love]

YEARS ago when I was your age (I am dating myself ) we used to weave place mats with yarn out of cotton dish towels.

I have never done any other type, but I am sure you can Google for ideas.

If you decide on something, be sure to post it

Hi everyone!

Just thought I'd share my latest venture. I needed to use a high chair which I used for HRH but I'd lost the strap for it. MC is getting more and more mobile now and so I got some heavy duty string and created a reinforced strap. I'm quite pleased with how it came out.
