One a Day Project - Tuesday's Tallies


Wow, Tuesday again already! I have to say this last week has not been the best. Whatever virus has chosen to come and stay has completely wiped me out and my energy levels are at an all time low. Most of my parenting has been done from the settee in a seating position as that's about all I have been able to manage! I'm hoping today might start to see me starting to feel better.

Week 1 - 23 squares complete
I've got more exciting things to talk about than feeling unwell.  Yes, after much, much deliberating last Tuesday I have picked my next project.  I wanted something small, one colour and something that would be easy to join together with a slip stitch at the end.  The pattern I have picked is from Cute and Easy Crochet by Nicki Trench and it's the Springtime Throw on page 24.  These squares work up really quickly, so I've been able to make a few everyday.  I'm slowly working my way through the pile of yarn.  My plan to weigh them has fallen by the wayside though as I realised I am still using some of the colours on another blanket.  Instead I can tell you that I have made 23 squares this week and they weigh 59 grams!

Time for the fun bit! If you would like to participate in 'Tuesday's Tallies' please add your details below, remembering to use your the link for your post rather than your blog.
