Things are rolling along on the Larger than Life bag. Eight squares done, four to go. After that, I have to crochet the sides/bottom and assemble.
My friend and sister-from-another-mother, Fay Lynn of Marvels of Knitting, gave a really nice mention of our new blogs (Hannah and her Mother and mine) on her blog today. Thanks a lot! My readership may soar above 5! Actually, I think FL is feeling guilty for torturing me for months with her Chevron scarf. I resisted as long as I could. I forced myself to stop pairing Koigu colors looking for a good combo. But when I saw (fondled) the finished scarf last Saturday I was finally hooked. This pattern from Last Minute Knitted Gifts has spread around the internet faster than a case of chicken pox in a kindergarten class. Just google "chevron scarf" and you'll see what I mean.
I just happened to buy 2 skeins each of Lorna's Laces sock yarn in Tickled Pink and Envy. Guess I'll have to cast on for the scarf.... just to be polite...
There are 7 days left of 10th grade. I hope I make it.

I love those granny squares, especially the colors together. Fay Lynn also hypnotized me with her chevron scarf. I've been rooting around my stash looking for yarn and asking myself if I should use koigu or STR or...
Well don't talk, you have been cranking on those squares and I have not started mine yet even though you "made" me get yarn for that project too. Maybe that will be my treat after the the "green frog torture" is done!
I think you'll be happier with the Koigu we talked you into for the chevron scarf, instead of the LL, lovely though it is.
