We sort of skipped september, but feel free to share anything crafty or homemade you have been working on. (I would love to get ideas from you all!)

Here are 3 projects of mine: dream catcher, mobile and big fluffy blanket for myself...

I want to start working on a chevron patterned crochet baby blanket, but I'm struggling with the colors to use. Obviously, the typical is blue, white, and more blue, but I want to do something a little different.

Here is the pattern...I like these colors, actually. I might change the mint for a soft blue, and swap the grey and white.

@FyreFlyeRush my friend did one as a rainbow. It was so bright and fun! But I think the colors you selected are very calming and nice too!

@biolprof, I thought about that, but starting in January, I want to do the temperature one, where you crochet two or three lines a day based on the temperature across an entire year. It ends up being a rainbow.

Glad I didn't do it this year, or the whole middle of it would be Cranberry.

Oh that's a cool idea!

Some knits for some family friends and their new babies! What are you ladies up to? I'm excited I can get back to my baby blanket!

@biolprof those turned out great! I’m starting to work on Halloween costumes. Should be interesting!

@biolprof those are great! I bought some yarn and needles and now I just need to YouTube teach myself how to knit some booties. I've never knitted a day in my life so we'll see how it goes!

biolprof · October 2019

@peppyj9 If I were you I might start with something flat first. The booties took a bit of 3D trickery and I wasn't sure they were going to work out for me at first. The good news is that they don't take long since they are so small! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BK4OxBZEyM I found this tutorial that might work though if you want to try!

I’ve been slowly but surely making progress on a baby blanket for a friend. And knitting alllll the hats for my Etsy shop. Oh and some pumpkins.
Also knitting a sweater for myself. But so far nothing to baby girl. Oops

Gorgeous! You are much more prolific than I. I love the hat patterns though. Did you get them on ravelry?

MrsJessS · October 2019

@biolprof I actually make my own patterns for stuff I sell! This summer I will probably create actual patterns and get them on Ravelry though!

biolprof · October 2019

@MrsJessS impressive! My patterns always suck hah!

persnickity · October 2019

@MrsJessS those hats are awesome!! I think we're all going to need the link to your store....
