YOP Week #12



My goals for this past week for YOP were 1) finish Halloween washcloth...done...........


2) finish cuff on sock #1......done.......on to the leg!  This is West Yorkshire Spinner's sock yarn in the Goldfinch colorway......love it so far!

 3) get yarns ordered for Maybelle and maybe some for the CALs too...have not done this yet......

4) finish color tipped scarf...done.  This is gold and black...Iowa Hawkeye colors for one of the grands........
  5) sew more strips for rag rug and crochet unto the rug....done.....

 6) start the Blaithin CAL..........done...but just started....you have 2 weeks to do 4 squares...2 regular and 2 design squares.
 This week was the Bramble square so I looked up brambles and took my colors from them.........

 and this is what the one plain square turned out like................I still have a border color to chose which will also be the color for joining (JAYG) but I haven't decided on it yet....gray?  black? cream?  pale yellow?  Also...should I use these same colors for the other 3 squares for this first CAL project or would it not fit in to have 4 squares with the same colors later when joining them all together?  Should I just not be bothered with nature accuracy?  I don't trust myself with color choices.  Nature does a much better job than I ever could.  Plus, I have realized I don't like primary or bright colors....no rainbows for me...........more muted colors......tough decisions!
I also need a blocker.  These squares will definitely need blocking!  I saw a wooden one on Etsy?  It allows you to stack a bunch of squares and you chose the finished size....I think I need that! 
This week the Nature's Walk CAL starts on Tuesday, Autumn starts tomorrow!  Yay!  It won't feel like it here yet but eventually it will come.  It is a bit cooler...80's and more rain and windy.....yep!  That's Fall on the horizon!
I did no cross stitch at all this week....my xs mojo has gone but I hope to get it back!  I was really tired this week too and sneezing and have had a few headaches....not sure what that's about but I even took a couple naps!  Moi....the person who never naps!  Are those days over?  I have started dozing while knitting and reading.....like those old people in the commercials!  At least I don't snore and wake myself up.
So, the goals for this coming week for YOP are 1) finish the other 3 squares for Blaithin CAL,  2) work on and hopefully finish leg of sock #1, 3) get yarns ordered for Maybelle and more,  4) sew and crochet more strips for rug, and 5) start nature's Walk CAL. I'm sure there's more but that's all I can handle right now!
As for around the homestead, there was laundry in my repaired "like new" dryer, the lawn got mowed, groceries were purchased, bills paid, garage steps finished painting and some cleaning.  My SIL is still struggling and his foot is the issue.....he is diabetic and it is infected and they have even mentioned having to amputate.  It is an awful situation....please keep those prayers coming.

I hope you had a good week and are staying safe from all the weather related disasters around the globe.
 Please stop by and see all the other fantastic projects that other YOP'ers are working on.

  1. Your week was filled to the brim! Your two CAL's are going to be fantastic. I have a feeling you will do well with color choices for both of them. You are the opposite of me....I love bright cheery colors in my blankets. They brighten my rooms up when I throw them on chairs and beds. My husband is more of the earth tone person so I never let him pick colors lol. I can't believe your XS mojo left. You have been going gang busters on all those samplers. Still have your SIL on the prayer list. Hopefully they can control the infection and save the foot. Diabetes is a horrible disease.

  2. Sam I really love that Halloween washcloth! Congrats on getting things done!!! I hate losing any kind of mojo, but I'm sure your cross stitch mojo will be back!! :) Fall is here in the mountains, and winter is not far behind, we had frost last night!

    ReplyDelete
  3. Look at you go, with all of the projects crossed off! I love the cloth. I'm sure your xs mojo will return as festive season edges closer.
    I really hope they manage to save your sil's foot.

  4. You have been busy again Sam. The washcloth is perfect for Halloween and I like the sock color. Lost your cross-stitch mojo? I don't believe it! You have so many neat projects going on, but maybe you just need a small break from it.
    Like you, I'm enjoying more muted tones of yarn for blankets, etc. The mittens are usually brigher because the children like that, but for the house I'm finding myself drawn to more mellow colors. Not exactly earthtone, just not really bright either.
    I have actually dozed off a few times in the evening in my chair recently too. Maybe it's just the change of seasons. We had cool, almost cold at home last week while here in Omaha it was really warm and humid when we arrived. Today was cooler and everyone had headaches, including Piper. The barometric pressure must have changed overnight.
    I'm continuing in prayer for your SIL. Diabetes is not a fun disease to have, that's for sure. It strikes almost without warning.
    Take care my friend and enjoy those naps. There is no harm in it and I think it's your bodies way of telling you it needs the additional rest.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

    1. Hi everyone, I am Sharon. from Poland I want to use this medium to appreciate Dr Ogbeifun the great black magic death spells caster for the successful death spells he cast on someone for me. I contacted him when my husband left me for another woman who uses witchcraft power to take my husband. I was desperately in need of help when I found his contacts online about his genuine powers. I told him my situation and how I wanted the bitch who took my husband gone. He told me not to worry. He cast the death spells ritual on her and the bitch died in her sleep within 24hours. Now my husband is back home and we are living happily. Thank you so much Dr Ogbeifun, You are so real and true. Below is his contacts in case you want to contacts him

  6. Praying for your son in law, what a difficult time for all of them and you.

    I started that CAL I thought it said 3 or 4 of each? I have one of each done. I had never done the popcorn stitch before. I have all colors...but heavy on aqua, rose, rust and blues. My first plain square was much smaller than the other...I had to add a row...I used two not as thick yarns. There is a facebook page where you can see all the different colors people have done. I am not sure i9f you do facebook. One lady did pink, while and shades of lilac and green...it was stunning.
    You must be tired to be napping ...or getting sick. I napped on and off all day today...this cold I have is rotten.
    Hope you have a good week Sam:)

  8. You are getting so much done! I have been thinking about the Nature walk Cal, as if I need another one! I am positive your XS mojo will come back. Your son-in-law will be added to my prayer list, diabetes sucks.

  9. Oooh... That Blaithin Blanket looks like it will be very pretty. Good start, Sam. I like your color inspiration. And the Halloween washcloth looks perfectly halloweeny. :) While it's certainly okay for you to take a break from cross stitching, I'm going to miss seeing your updates. And lastly, I'm sorry that your son-in-law (and all involved) has this worry. I'm praying that his foot heals up!

I read about Doctor Ilekhojie from other websites and contacted him to help me and in less than 48 hours my ex boyfriend called me and I was happy that he wants to get back to me. We met on Friday and he proposed to me,... It was the most beautiful ring.

  20. MY EX IS FINALLY BACK TO ME

    I was so depressed when my ex left me for another woman. it made me felt like i was not relevant and my heart and love life was seriously destroyed. i could not concentrate in anything i was doing. i went online and searched for help but could not find any genuine spell caster until i went to Ocala Florida to visit my aunt to ease the depression and loneliness. when i got to Florida, i explained to my aunt who then felt pity for me and told me the secret she have not told anyone about the success in her marriage with her man. she then took me to the temple of powerful Dr. Ilekhojie whom i met and explained my problems to. he promised to help me because of my aunt. i trusted his words and provided him with the materials needed to help me get my ex back and to my greatest surprise, after 48 hours of casting the spell, my Ex cam back on his knees begging for me to forgive him. i was shocked and surprised. we are happily married now and everything is working fine with us.I promised Dr. Ilekhojie that i will never keep this a secret because he brought back my life and my world and that i will hare my testimony to the general public.

    My advice goes to any one out there who is emotionally depressed or having any similar relationship problem, to contact Dr. Ilekhojie the ultimate spell caster via his direct email gethelp05@gmail.com or call his temple line on +2348147400259 he is the best in the World....
