Mashup

It was a nice long weekend for me.  I had a vacation day.  I like to spread mine out and have long weekends.  Did I get some crochet done, sure.  As much as I intended, no.  It's always that way.  Did some fall cleaning though.  I went through my closet, tossed a bunch of clothes. Put away the summer clothes and took out the warmer clothes of which I don't seem to have alot of. Hmmm, must go shopping.  Honey and I went to the mall.  He got himself a nice button up shirt and bought me one as well.  HEHE
 
    Anyway, crochet.  I did up a few of those squares in my blue, brown and green tones. 
 
And here they are all together
 
I tried out this new ruffle yarn I had gotten from that yarn factory outlet my co-worker picked me up.  I love the colours.  However, it's just tedious to work with.
 
 
I also got more done on my ripple.  And I had previously run out of a blue for it.  But I had looked at Michael's etc for this Bernat Satin and couldn't be found.  I did however find it at a thrift store.
 
 
 
But for having a day off I'm exhausted.  Cleaned so much, moved some furniture, got rid of a lot of garbage.  It does feel good to at least have accomplished something.  Well have a good week everyone!

Looking good, I love those squares. I think I should invest in the 200 crochet blocks book, it looks fantastic! Glad you enjoyed your holiday day, they are always the busiest kinds of days. :) x

I love the colors you are using for your blocks! I would've never thought to put those together!

Loving your ripple, looks like you're making wonderful headway. I hate making the closet change so put it off as long as possible, cause I keep hoping warmer weather will come back. Like you, I don't have much in the warmer line. Remember thinking last year I really needed to shop at the end of season and never did.

Want to come to my house next and help me get rid of stuff?
You sure stayed busy on your crafts! I'm getting ready to get down my granny square blanket and add squares to it until I head to bed.

Lucky you to find missing yarn at the thrift store. :-) Your squares are beautiful. Will you do all of the ones in the book?
