Okay, I don't need much encouragement. 😆 Here's the latest progress pic of the #bookblanket. That's our queen size bed it is spread out on. Nearest the camera is the start of the year.

(Quick project description: for each book I read, I make a hexagon. The colour of the center tells you the genre, the outer ring tells you whether I bought the book this year, in 2017-18, in 2011-16, or got it from the library/other.)

@rabbitprincess TADA!

AnneCecilie That‘s so cool. It looks gorgeous 5y
ljuliel Great idea, and nice work. Are you going to quit at year‘s end, or keep going til it‘s the size you want? 5y
shanaqui Thanks guys! 😊😊

@ljuliel Just to the end of the year -- it's already a very good lap blanket, and I'm pretty sure with my projected reading speed, I'll get to a good size at the end!

This is what I have been doing instead of reading. It's allllllmost finished apart from some work to correct a corner, as many more rounds as I can get out of the leftover yarn, and a neat edging (crab stitch, I think).

llwheeler Looks awesome! 6y

Trying out a few different granny squares for a baby blanket while watching Arrested Development for possibly the 10th time...

APLitlife I need to get back into crocheting. I love it! 6y
[DELETED] 3803335244 I just got a granny square book for Christmas & a blocking board. Technically, the blocking board we saved up for because my tastes are bigger than my wallet! Lol 😂 Great square too! I love it! (edited) 6y
Johanna414 @ForeverNerdy I want a blocking board so badly! 6y
[DELETED] 3803335244 @Johanna414 I saved up for one from Chetnanigans they have a website & also on Etsy. I thought I was going to wait another month but my husband bought it for me. It‘s on it‘s way. It takes 5 weeks for them to hand make it!!! I‘m so excited! If you get one they are worth it. Check out their you tube video, so good. 6y

Frantically trying to finish this #crochet afghan for my mother-in-law in time for Christmas. Her Grandma made the #grannysquares decades ago. I found the tote stacked with gorgeous grannies about 4 years ago, just sitting there, and told her I would be honored to finish it. Weaving ends, blocking, connecting, having babies, #breastfeeding sore wrists has all occured but I'm almost done!😀 #audiobook #heirloom
