It’s #FOFriday .. on a Saturday!

I forgot to take pictures yesterday.

Anywho, this is a gloriously warm and cozy sweater; it’s practically a blanket with sleeves. I love it so much. Definitely fit for polar vortex weather this winter.

I’m using up stash yarn for a top-down lacy sweater.

I don’t think I have enough yarn, so I’m going to work a stripe of a coordinating color across the body. This yarn is navy blue, so I’m thinking blush pink or sky blue.

It’s looking like a sweater now! Still needs a border and a collar, but it is sooo fluffy

Here’s a sweater in 3 parts.

Now, on to the sleeves!

It’s part of the back of a super fluffy chenille cardigan. (Cue sound clip of Agnes screaming, “it’s so fluffy, I’m going to die!”

Pictured here is the back of a sweater in progress. The yarn is a soft light grey and the crochet stitch makes it look like a broken ribbing type of stitch.

I played yarn chicken and I won!! 😆

#crochetsky #knitsky #crochetaway #showmeyourknits #showmeyourcrochet
Pictured here is a crocheted scarf lying in a heap on a wooden floor. The yarn is a mauve pink silk, worked in lacy shells. Prominently displayed is the bit of yarn left over at the end, which is more than was needed to finish the scarf. A successful game of yarn chicken!

Here’s a lovely möbius scarf, crocheted in yarn I bought while on vacation last month. It’s a beautifully soft cotton in bright bold colors.

Featuring: vacation yarn!!

(I bought the yarn last month while on vacay, and I’m so excited to make things with them)

The beginning of a lacy scarf in a really soft cotton yarn. The yarn is hand dyed in cherry, white, and purple. A very long, currently skinny scarf made from silk yarn I rescued from the sale bin. The yarn is a soft mauve pink, and the scarf has a scalloped stitch pattern.

Just got my new pin from HokumAndSnark and I’m so excited for its new home on my mini pin bag! 🖖🏻

Pictured here is a pink and white mini purse with a clear plastic window to display pins. In the window is an enamel pin designed to look like the IDIC (Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations) symbol from Star Trek in the colors of the progress pride flag. Live long and prosper, friends.

This is the KBB Shawl by Brittany Garber (KnotBadBritt) in Universal Yarn’s Bamboo Pop Sock. I like the stripes and the structure; it’s really different and really cool.

When you go on vacation, and you crochet, you have to stop at a LYS and buy yarn. It’s basically the law. 🧶

Omigosh, I love this one so much!!

It’s the Wonder Woman Wrap by Carissa Browning. It’s free on Ravelry, and there is a knit version as well. I love the structure of it, how it creates the emblem by building onto what is already made.

#crochetsky #crochetaway #showmeyourcrochet
Pictured here is a finished crochet shawl lying on a wood floor. The shawl is red and white, with Wonder Woman’s double W symbol worked into the design.

All blocked and everything! This thing is massive, 6ft across. It took up most of my bathroom floor while it was blocking 😆

I finished the pink and purple shawl! The pattern is the Hemingway Single Skein Scarf/Kerchief by Très Gay Crochet. This is the second one I’ve made; it’s so addicting and easy, I may make more!

The Wonder Woman Wrap and the rainbow shawl are coming along nicely 🌈💕

#crochetsky #knitsky #crochetaway #showmeyourknits #showmeyourcrochet
Pictured here is a red and white shawl in progress. The shawl uses structure and color worked in blocks to create the Wonder Woman double W emblem. Pictured here is a triangle shawl in progress. The yarn alternates between stripes of navy blue and rainbow colors. It’s pretty wrinkly right now; I’m definitely going to need to block this one when it’s finished.

I got a new project bag from TeeTurtle (because what is life without more places to store yarn and books? lol) and I immediately fell in love 🌈 It’s got my rainbow shawl in it now

#rainbow #pride #axolotl
Pictured here is a rainbow tote resting on the corner of a gray sofa. The tote bag is covered in axolotls in rainbow colors, and the tote has a black axolotl stuffed animal with rainbow fins on the strap. Really cool thing is that the bag can fold up into the axolotl stuffie.

Stress has gotten the better of my crafting ADHD, and I have not 1, not 2, but 3 shawls that I’m working on. Descriptions in pictures

#crochetsky #knitsky #crochetaway #showmeyourknits #showmeyourcrochet
The Wonder Woman Wrap by Carissa Browning. Pictured here is the beginning of a shawl in white that will feature Wonder Woman’s emblem in red. It’s a really cool design that creates the logo through the structure of the shawl. Anna’s Shawl by Kountingsheep. I got frustrated with how the rainbow tank top I was making fit me, so I ripped it out and I’m making a rainbow shawl instead. Pictured here is the beginning of the triangle shawl, in alternating stripes of navy blue and rainbow colors. The Hemingway Single Skein Shawl/Kerchief by Tres Gay Crochet. I made a rainbow one of these in June and loved it and the Cumulus yarn I used so much, I bought another one. Pictured here is the beginning of a triangle shawl in an ombre from dark purple to light pink.

Life has been crazy and chaotic lately, so I haven’t had much time or brainpower for crochet, but I did finish my red scarf! It’s super soft and cozy, and I’m going to wear it to hockey games this winter.

Pictured here is a finished red and light gray scarf twisted in a loop. The scarf is crocheted in red in a mesh stitch, with a gray scalloped border for contrast.
