I wrote down the name of one of your shawls lainey to try and find someone to make it for me. The notepad is long gone but the memory of that beautiful blue shoulder shawl lives on. Was it the Easy Goes It shawl?

That`s the one. That is the prettiest shawl I have seen. I think it appeals to me cos I am only just 5ft tall and most shawls would be near my ankles. Please tell me you get to wear all the lovely shawls you make.

You are so talented, lainey. I hope that today is a better day for you.

Hey, jeremysgirl, tyra, I just realized that this week’s squares are the last of the squares! I’ve been sick as a dog today due to the Shingrix vaccine, but I’ve managed between last night’s and tonight’s baseball games to get two of each of this week’s squares done. I just got up to go to where the yarn for the project is stashed to get one more skein of each of this week’s colors and I realized that that is it for the colors/squares. I then double-checked the introduction, and yep, sure enough 6 weeks of 8 squares, not the 8 weeks of 8 squares I somehow thought it was. 😱 I have a boatload of blocking to do before next week when we start joining. I’m not going to get it all done in time. Have I mentioned that I hate blocking? 🤣

I'm on 3 of last weeks star square. Then I'll go back and finish the bonus ones. So I figure I'll be done, hopefully, by the new year lol So sorry you've been sick!!! Hopefully you're feeling 100% ASAP!

elaine tyra I am so far behind it's pathetic. I'm need to do leaf square #4. And I know you hate the blocking, Elaine, and the blocking doesn't bother me near as much as the end weaving. End weaving is going to kill me one day. I hope to get some blocking done this weekend. And I have decided that I'm not going anywhere or entertaining anyone all weekend. I'm just going to sit in my house and crochet. I need to get this done by Christmas. Elaine, how are you sitting on yarn? I'm worried about running out. I was hoping you could reassure me.

I’ve been weaving in my ends as I go, so I’m okay there. I hate doing that too, but this is a rare project for me in that each square is only 1 color, so just 2 ends per square. I’ve been forcing myself to weave in the ends before starting the next square. I thought I was going to run short on some colors, so I ordered some extra skeins (which have yet to show up even though it was a couple of weeks ago) and I won’t need them. So, I’m okay on yarn. But, I’m making them the exact size she specified- each square is 15.5-16 cm. I can send you my extra yarn when it shows, if you need it.

elaine I would love that. I'm doing alright so far on the squares. What I'm really concerned about is the border. We will see how it goes. I hope to make some serious progress this weekend. So I will be better able to assess the situation next week.
