It cooled off a bit on Friday, so when I went out Saturday, I felt energized enough to tackle the eye sweater again. Alas, I left behind one of the skeins I'd need to continue the sleeve. So, I made do with the skeins I had brought.
I continued with the other sleeve. I sewed up the side seams. And I realized that the neckline needed something, so I did a round of double crochet around it.
It's not a lot of progress, but it's progress.
Did you make any progress on a project you didn't think you'd get to last week?
Eye sweater previous posts:
Does a "project" include cleaning? I got my dog figurines and their shelves dusted! Not a creative project, but it felt good to get it done.
ReplyDeleteI was deliberately vague with regards to project. So, congrats on getting some cleaning done.
DeleteI used some of my homegrown pumpkin to make a cake, which my husband loves. :D
ReplyDeleteOooh, cool.
DeleteI think of you every time I see an EYE!
ReplyDeleteAnd I think the eye thing is creepy. I wouldn't be making this if it wasn't a request.
Deletethecontemplativecat here Lisa and I are of the same mind. the project is an unfinished baby quilt, who is now about 6 now. Until I finish that, I will feel like I have failed.
ReplyDeleteFinish it in time for their high school graduation ;)
DeleteGlad you made some progress. I'm trying to get into a better writing routine and edited a chapter last week. I'm also nearly done with a big weeding project by my driveway.
ReplyDeleteIt's going to look cool when finished!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteThat is coming out really good. I crocheted a baby blanket for my grandson 11 years ago and I didn't know how to crochet. I think I made my own stitch. LOL That was the only thing I made.
ReplyDeleteHey, if it came out, it's a valid stitch.
DeleteToday, I made a little progress, during a car trip, on a project that was supposed to be done for an event that took place towards the end of July. Maybe by next July....
ReplyDeleteSo, ahem, Liv's birthday was in June...
DeleteI’m loving how the sweater is coming along
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteOne great thing about this sweater is it gave you a lot of blog posts 😊
ReplyDeleteThis is true.
DeleteI worked on some of the women postcards I am creating. I always choose this type of activity versus housekeeping…..
ReplyDeleteHousekeeping sucks. I'd pick the fun stuff, too.
DeleteThat sweater is the coolest! I need to do a good clean up & out of stuff we don't use or need.
ReplyDeleteI need to do that too. Although, it won't happen now while I'm busy with work.
DeleteHi Liz - as you saw I'm taking time off to get things sorted ... that sweater will certainly stand out and i'm sure be very much appreciated by your niece (I think) ... well done and cheers - Hilary
ReplyDeleteThis is looking really cool. She will love it. I want to pai t my garden gnomes..maybe this weekend I will start
