Crocheting Again
My yarn bag keeps calling me to take it out to my yard swing and enjoy the day,
... so here I am again as my sewing machine patiently waits.
This is my
Christmas Candy Striped Sampler Afghan ~ Started Here
It is a monthly BOM kit and I am a few months behind as I have been focused on finishing other projects.
This project was Last Worked On Here.
If it looks like I am stitching the same rows again, it is because I am.
If you look closely you may be able to se there was a dye lot difference in the Snow White yarn in the second month kit. The new ball is much creamier than the first.
At some point I decided that I was going to have to pull the rows in the sixth stripe out and redo them with one dye lot.
I received another skein of whit in a later kit that tuned out to be a perfect match to the first skein, so I only pulled out a few rows.
The ball of creamy white will be saved for use when needed. I think if I use it in stripe that is not too close to other whites the difference will be far less noticeable. I suppose I could request a new skein that is a better match, but it feels trivial at this point.
I shall crochet on.
I hope you are having a good day
and that your weekend will be a happy one.

I'm very happy to see this wonderful project Pat. Everything about it is beautiful from its name to the colours. Happy Hooking!
The thought of you crocheting on your porch swing is delightful. Enjoy the fine late spring weather, your machine will be ready for you on a rainy day or when the muse urges you back.
