The thorn in my side..

by Kate on April 21, 2011

is the clown vomit hexagon blanket. It’s a little too bright and a little too scrappy for my liking but I really should have thought about that earlier.

I have been putting off completing this thing since the day I started it but with only 10 hexagon’s to go, the finish line is in sight.

Ravelry tells me it has been a ‘work in progress’ since July 2010…far too long really. So, here it is: ‘no new crochet projects to be started until this is finished’. There, I said it and I am expecting you guys to hold me to it.

In other news, the lucky winner of the ‘from little things’ fat quarter bundle is: Lynette ‘I love how quilting leaves a more durable piece of myself in this world.’ Congratulations Lynette!

“Clown vomit” LOLOLOL You made me laugh out loud. :) I bet you this will be one of those projects that you don’t like until it’s all together and you step back and see it and think, “Whoa! I *do* like you!” I love it when that happens to me. The colors are fun and modern. It’ll be neat when it’s finished!

Thank you oh, so very much for the giveaway. :D

I think it’s looking rather perfect…I love the scrappy look of it.
I only starting crocheting this year and am seriously addicted now that I have mastered it :)
