FO Friday!

Happy Friday all :) In Manitoba, we're kicking off a long weekend with Louis Riel Day falling on this coming Monday, and after a cold and dreary 2018, I think everyone deserves an extra day to stay safe and warm indoors!

Of course that means I've been fairly productive with my yarncrafting. I managed to finish off my Summer Mist Throw...despite my cat Maid Marian's best efforts...
There she is just DARING me to remove it from my yarn Raskog and get to work. I didn't win that battle, but I did win the war eventually haha. Here it is!
Turned out kinda nice, no? This sucker came out to be around 6 feet by 6 feet and my husband and I don't have to fight much for a piece of it during couch time - there's plenty for us both! In case you wanted to reproduce this colour way, I used Loops and Threads Impeccable in Aran, Heather, and Navy and Vanna's Choice in Dusty Green. When I got to the border, instead of alternating rows of single crochet, I did a row of single crochet in Aran, then a row of half double crochet in the back loops using Navy, then a row of double crochets in the back loops in Heather. For the last row I used Dusty Green and did a row of single crochets in the back loops.

And now that it's all done, I've got nothing but time to work on new projects! Stay tuned next weekend when I FINALLY unveil my completed Done in Love pullover. Plus I've been working on a clothing design on my own...keep your fingers crossed that I can work this sucker out! You can bet I'll share the pattern if it does!

Have a great weekend! I gotta turn my attentions to the 3rd period of the Jets game so ta ta for now :)
