diving back into crochet

Each Wednesday, I take stock of the projects I’m working on.

It turns out that all I needed to dive back into my giant crochet cardigan was a couple days of cold rainy weather, a couple days with only one or two commitments, and the beginnings of a cold. Curling up under what’s basically a lap blanket, for a couple days, did double duty in fighting off my cold/flu thing, and catapulting my cardigan towards finished.

I’m about halfway through the final round, then I just have to weave in a pile of ends, wash and block the square, and sew a quicky seam. And then I’ll finish the first made-by-me-for-me garment since the self-made wardrobe project.

And if you want to know more about the project, here’s my interview with one of the designers.
