Making Time to Create // Baby Blanket Progress


Is anyone else completely freaking out that it is almost July? I didn't get as much knitting done this month as I would've liked, so I really need to buckle down for the rest of the summer. Starting Monday, I gave myself a mini-goal to accomplish - knit or crochet something for AT LEAST an hour a day. I can already see the results! I'm almost finished with the baby blanket I've been working on! All I need to do is connect the rest of the squares, sew the rows together, and add the edging. *gulp* Ok...maybe I'm not almost finished. 




I've been caught up in the technology tornado the past few weeks. I seriously have an unhealthy addiction to the Instagram app. So, it's time to get back on track and focus on what's more important - creating fun new things for the shop! 



As the oh-so-wise Michael Scott would say, "Knit like the wind, Meredith!"

  1. I really love the colors of that blanket. So simple, yet so lovely.
    It really makes me want to make another blanket of my own ... but I think maybe I should finish some other projects first.

  6. The blanket looks really great.!(: I get way too caught up in technology...

    Instagram is completely addicting...I've been on vacation so I haven't been on in three days!

    But now I'm back to mindlessly scrolling through thousands of pictures (including yours) :)

  15. The squares are lovely. What yarn are you using for this project. Haven't crocheted in years. It's time I pick up my hooks again.
