February Project Planning

I have gathered all the yarn I need to begin a huge February project! I haven't really did any crocheting since December. I think I became burnt out from all of the gift making during September thru December. So now I have rested my wrists and am ready to get back to crocheting.

I came across a couple of afghan ideas on pinterest and plan on incorporating them together.

Now that I have a set plan for my next project, I am looking forward to beginning. We will be heading out to Colorado at the end of the week and I will have this project as my road trip crocheting.

Got out this weekend and did some skiing at Park City Mountain Resort and captured a gorgeous picture of the surrounding area.

Chevron Afghan

Hello all!! Sorry for not posting much this past month, but I had knee surgery mid-June. I am slowly getting back mobility and range of motion in my left knee. I am stuck on crutches for another week or two, but hoping to be able to ditch those bad boys for good really soon. While being off my feet for these past few weeks, I did get my Chevron Afghan completed!! I really love how it turned out. There were days after surgery where I would be counting my stitches and the next thing I knew I am waking up from a cat nap. One thing about crocheting while rehabilitating is that it is better than counting sheep!!

Chevron Pattern found on the blog All Things Bright and Beautiful by Andrea Baker. I can say that the pattern by Andrea Baker is very easy to follow.

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer. I will have to write this summer off this year for any cool outdoor activities, but I will get many crochet projects completed! There is always a silver lining. :)))
