Sleuthing
I'm contemplating the next blanket or Afghan. Pinterest is a great source of inspiration, but the patterns themselves can sometimes be difficult to track down. After some sleuthing, I found the flowers in a row pattern here and the triangles pattern here. I worked samples of both. I think I'll start with triangles and come back to the flowers. I think I prefer the triangle with the cream centre; seven different colours in each triangle might be a bit muddled. But the contemplation will continue as I spin the first batch of wool.

Jane, you made wonderful work on your projects, I really love your embroidery!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the cream center. This is going to be yet another lovely project ! Boy, you are quick :-D
ReplyDeleteI have pinned those same triangles 😄
ReplyDeleteI like your choice! I don't think to go to Pinterest very often, probably because I can spend hours browsing and thinking about what I'd like to do instead of actually accomplishing something. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe cream center really looks nice. Will you alternate the triangles in the row?
ReplyDeleteYes,upside down next to each other to make a strip.
DeleteI like both of the patterns but may be you are right that to many colours will be to much!
ReplyDeleteI like the cream centres, brings out the other colours in the triangle, sometimes it takes a while to trace the patterns used but it can be worth while in the end. Pinterest brings a lot of ideas not all work.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! Those are neat samples!! :) Can't wait to see how beautiful it will be!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI have never done either of these crochet styles and I like them both. Happy Spinning...
