I’ve been quite busy in the bow department. I currently have 32 out for sale with a couple of people, and I have many more in the works. I have been perusing Pinterest like a fiend trying to find new and exciting bows to make.
I’ve made some pretty awesome sculptural princesses, some wacky combos, and spiky bows. It’s been fun and feels good to get my hands dirty again.
The princesses were the first to go. They weren’t the fastest things to do, but they use very little ribbon, and I have 19 metric tons of that size – in so many colors! It’s an awesome way to use it.
As far as afghans go, I started my Sophie’s Universe (http://www.lookatwhatimade.net/crafts/yarn/crochet/sophies-universe-cal-2015/) with the girls in my crochet group on Wednesday. There are 6 of us doing it – one far away, and the rest right here. I’ve gotten through round 6 of Sophie, and it looks pretty awesome. I love that each round is different. Here is what it looks like so far!
I did also get a commission for an American Flag afghan. I’ve made so many of them, and it can get tedious, but it’s been awhile, and hopefully since I have a few different projects going on right now, I won’t get bored! 🙂
