Patchwork Crochet Sampler Blanket ~ Repost

Hello! 

I am Nutmeg, Crochet Kitty Inspector!

If you have clicked on our blog from other social media 

because you are interested in how we made 

this pink and gray Patchwork Blanket,  

you will find the start of this blanket ... 

Patchwork Sampler Blanket ~ Started Here in 2022

The large squares were all made from the 

Afghan Crochet Sampler Crochet Along @ Inspired by Wren

Then we made smaller rectangular and square blocks to add to the fun.

All of these were free patterns that we found online 

and links made be found in posts that are labeled  " Squares Crochet Sampler" 

or "Patchwork Crochet."

We completed this

Patchwork Sampler Blanket Completed Here 

in May, 2022.

I do share is blanket with my sister kitties.  

We love this blanket.

We hope you will enjoy making and snuggling in your blanket, too.

Happy Crocheting! 

Stitch Sew & Show ~ 2022 ~ Week 19 ~ Patchwork Crochet Sampler Throw

It s finished! 

 My Patchwork Crochet Sampler Throw ~ Started Here

Welcome to Stitch Sew & Show ~ 2022 ~ Week 19

My finished Patchwork Crochet Sampler Throw is 76" square.

When I started this project to revive and build my crochet skills,

 it was to be 20 squares for this

Crochet Sampler Crochet Along @ The Inspired Wren

It soon took a life of its own and I added setting rectangles

 and granny squares and my own border.

I will be adding "Patchwork Crochet Sampler Throw" 

and the hastag  #patchworkcrochet 

to all my posts for this to make them easier to find. 

This crochet throw is a nice size to snuggle under and share on windy days on our yard swing. 

This makes it a nice size for a topper for a queen size bed.

Folded, it makes a nice kitty size cushion. 

Nutmeg is happy to have tested it. 

My kitties and I have started a new yarn project inspired by these sea colors

which I will show you soon.

Maestro seems to think the cat needs to be out of the bag.

Katniss is still inspecting it though to be sure it is ready to share.

Nutmeg is all for testing it and keeping it under wraps,

as long is she may be the one wrapped.

More photos of this and my sea adventure soon!

What have you been working on this week, my friends?

Patchwork Crochet Purrfection ~ Cat 2

 

Katniss says,

 "My turn on the crochet in progress, Mommy! 

Purrrrease?" 

Cat On The Lap Crochet

 

Progress is being made here at "Cat on The Lap Crochet." 

This is the first round in border one on my 

Patchwork Crochet Squares Sampler Afghan

Here is the Cat On The Lap, Nutmeg.

Every time I sit in my favorite living room chair to make some progress

the cat hops onto my lap.

I put the WIP away when I am not working on it or the cat(s)

 will be making biscuits on it.

The Cat on the Lap is an immoveable object.

I crochet as far as I can around her.

My hook has reached a standstill here on the bottom of the photo.

Here is a snapshot of the Cat on the Lap from Mr. Scrapatches'

 angle from the sofa.

I asked him not to put my "cat-axperated" face in the photo. 

This is the cat settled in on the chair for the night in my WIP.

I very carefully gather the cat in afghan as I stand up. 

Then lay gently lay her down in the warm and comfy nest on the chair. 

How could I resist this "I Love You, Mommy" happy cat face?

With the cat's help I have finished border one in the dark pink yarn

 and am working on border 2 in the light gray.

Linking up today with

Slow Sunday Stitching @ Kathy's Quilts

and

More Cat on the Lap Crochet photos soon!

Stitch Sew& Show ~ 2022 ~ Week 15

 

Welcome to Stitch Sew & Show ~ 2022 ~ Week 15

It has been a busy week and we have been able to get some yard clean up done.

When I have been sitting inside, I have slowly been stitching the blocks for my patchwork crochet together.

I like to use a plastic yarn needle and the ladder stitch.

I start with a loop stitch that doubles my yarn.

I place my stitches just under the double loops of my single crochet edge stitcth.

The ladder stitch is an up and down  movement.

I think this makes and secure seam and I like the look of it.

This makes a nice flat and almost invisible seam.

I hope to have the center of my patchwork crochet afghan together soon.

What are you working on this week?

Please share!

Patchwork Crochet

 

This part feels almost like quilting.

I have the blocks laid out and I am sewing them together.

For this purpose I am using a large plastic needle and yarn and the ladder stitch. 

Hope to have the center of my "patchwork crochet quilt"  soon.

Happy Stitching!
