Okay..
Since they were requested. The picture to the left is one of the 48 centers that I have been making. I’d take a picture of the whole pile, but they’re scary! But yeah. Those are the centers that I’ve been making. I still need to get the other shade of green for the next row of it. Then it’s back to white for the final row. THEN it’s time to weave the loops together and sew them together. After that, it’s time to trim and finish it. I can’t wait to see the finished product, which means I need to go yarn shopping soon. Won’t be tomorrow, thanks to the weather, maybe one day next week will be nice enough. *bounce*
Today, I moved on to step two on a couple of them and put the green on a couple of the centers, just so I could take pictures. They look pretty cool, but they’re going to be a pain in the ass to do to an extent, just like the centers were. I love the way they work up and how pretty it will be when they’re woven together, but do a little, tie off, move to the next. It gets really monotonous and annoying, especially having 48 of them to do. Once I get more than a couple done and get a rhythm going, it’ll probably go quickly. I got to the point where I was just firing out the centers like the world was ending. LOL
I also decided to play with some of the beautiful blue wool/mohair yarn that I have as well. Just for something a little bit different to work on since I don’t have the right stuff for the princess blanket yet. I found this pattern on freepatterns.com and thought it would be cool to try to work it up. It called for 2ply yarn and a K hook, but what I have is 4ply and I’m working with an H hook. It comes out to the same gauge, so it’s all good. I like the way it’s working up. It looks really neat and is working up quickly. I just hope that overall it doesn’t take a ton of yarn to finish. I’ll likely mix in a few white rows to break up the blue monotony, which will make it a lot easier on the wool. I’ve got a lot of rows left to go and I’m almost through one skein already.
Anyway, that’s today’s yarn babble. 
Are you sick of it yet?
