Knitted Squares Lap Robe


This one is a knitted lap robe for hospice.  It is item #19 for hospice and #23 for this season's crocheting.  I gave four away to other people who really needed them.

Also, the round afghan that I made in July has found its home.  I was pretty sure I would be giving it away.  I just didn't know who was going to get it.  It's on its way to Tennessee.



I'm on vacation this week.  I'm planning to come as close as possible to finishing my 50,000 words novel I started for NaNoWriMo and working on a couple more hospice shawls or lap robes.

Thanks for visiting with me,

Two More Hospice Entries

I am going a bit slower with the crocheting.  But I haven't stopped completely.

Here are the two most recent pieces I've finished.

Brown Lap Robe



This is a rose trellis. (Pun intended)

I have a pregnant coworker and neighbor, so I will also be working on two baby blankets.  And I have not finished using up either ideas or yarn.

I'm signed up to participate in National Novel Writing Month starting on Thursday, so I don't know if that will slow down my crochet progress or not.  My basic plot so far as I know it is that a creative, but self-absorbed youth who wants to make a pile of money for his own use ends up transported back to the time of his great-grandfather whom he resembles.  He does, in fact, find an excellent way to make large amounts of money, but when faced with the desperation of the Great Depression, he must make choices as to what he might be able to do with his fortune.

Sound like a plot?

Thanks for visiting with me.
