More Baby Afghans

Between snuggling with my new grandbaby, I have been working on a couple of baby afghans.
There are babies everywhere here :)
I have crocheted 3 baby afghans so far.
For all of them I have followed the same pattern, but changed up the colour order.

I have 9 rows of white left to do and hope I have enough yard to finish this one.
I donated my wool/yarn a couple of years ago.
Every crafter knows that we love our supplies and keep lots of them around us, just in case creative inspiration comes to us at 1:00am...we need the supplies on hand....right?!
Well I was trying to be realistic and came to the conclusion that I don't knit or crochet often enough to have a stash or wool/yarn. So I am only going to purchase wool/yarn when I am actually working on a project.
So far so good ;)

This is the original pattern and where I found it "Baby Afghan".
As you can see (from the photo above) I changed up the colours on my newest afghan.
I didn't feel like changing colours as much this time, so went with majority of the afghan being white with some strips of sea glass (green) as well as the shell border...which I haven't done the border yet.

I am thinking I am going to change up my last baby afghan.
As much as I love this pattern....I am a bit tired of it, lol.

Hope you all have a very creative day :)

Oops

Can you see what is wrong with this picture?

I crocheted the wrong colour!!!
Each colour takes 45 to 60 minutes to complete.
So I just wasted about an hour crocheting the wrong colour :(
I was a bit frustrated so I haven't worked on it for a couple of weeks....time to pick it up and complete it.
I won't want baby to come before I'm done with his afghan ;)

I hope you all have a very creative day :)

Getting my wool on.

I do many different types of crafts.
For the past, many years, it has been mostly paper crafting.
I just felt like I wanted to change it up, so I decided to make a baby afghan.
I just love this colour combination.

So many new babies are going to be born...and the 3 that I know of are all going to be boys.
Actually my younger brother and his wife are having their baby today...haven't heard back from them yet.
It is taking all of my strength not to contact them....they live in a different province than I do.
So I just have to be patient.

When you knit or crochet, do you pull the yarn out of the middle of the ball?
Do you re-string it, or just work it from the outside of the ball?
As you can see, I pull it out from the middle of the ball.

Here is where I found the pattern for this adorable pattern "The Stitchin' Mommy"

I hope you all have a creative day :)
