It’s finished!
Roy finished his amazing Log Cabin blanket and it is truly impressive. He is nice enough to leave it at the shop so customers can see it in person! Her is a photo ( which doesn’t do it justice).
I have decided( for now ) to use a purple wool from Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton . I like how it makes the square colors pop!
New fun project!
One of the yarn crawlers had on this fabulous scarf from Mango Moon. I love it!
This pattern uses a variety of yarns and stitch patterns. You can really make it up as you go along. However, I am planning to create a cheat sheet for those who are a little apprehensive to “wing it”. I think this project would be a great shop knit along starting mid April (after spring break). That will give me time to work out the pattern.
What make this scarf really interesting is a yarn from Mango Moon-Legong. It is a cotton with wonderful gold it silver dangles!

Don’t forget that the Yarn Crawl ends this Sunday! What a great week and a half it has been.
Thanks to all the participants!
Can’t wait until next year.
What’s Happen’
More Gina from Plymouth -# 1, 4, 7, 8 , and 10 have arrived! I have also ordered more of some of the colors that we had before.
Here are my 2 newest squares! I love this project! I am considering putting a few squares together to see the effect of adding the trim! Just having a hard time committing to a color. My first instinct is to go neutral, but I really want something bold like magenta or turquoise! I worry that I will lose the umph( is that a real word?) of the color squares if I use a bold border. Dilemma for today!
I thanks to all the crawlers! We have had a great time meeting so any new people. We hope you will visit again.
Just a heads up to the crawler- remember to tell your final shop (8 th) where you want to pick up your gift basket when you win! They should write it on you information page when you turn it in at your last stop. We are just trying to make it easier for you. However if you win one of the many individual shop baskets, you will need to go back to that shop to pick it up. That just gives you a reason to go back for another visit!
Okay here are the photos -I forgot to insert there earlier- just too much excitement
Gina color #10
Boku # 13
This is the first square using the Plymouth Boku. It seams a little large, but I am happy with it!
“We” chose the purple from Cornelia Tuttle Hamilton for my in between color for my blanket! We shall see!!
