Wavy April…. I noticed my March (yes I am behind! 😂) was tighter and pulling in so my last couple days I tried to loosen my tension. Well I think I created a problem for myself as now as I work in April, my width has grown and is wavy. Do I need to frog it or hope as I add days and then start May it will be less noticeable?  Help!🙏

Unfortunately, I can't attend the Retreat this year because my brother and I are taking my Dad to Walker, MN, for some fishing. When I was researching the area, lo and behold, I found four fiber arts stores, so I planned a little tour. In Bemidji, MN, I'm going to The Yarn Cabin and Fiddlesticks Yarn Store, in Park Rapids, MN, I'm going to Monika's Quilt & Yarn Store, and in Pine River, MN, I'm going to Serenity Now Yarn & Alpaca Store.

Hi Tiffany - I have a question about the crochet along sampler blanket. My square #2 is smaller than my square #1. Should I frog and redo the square or do you think I should add more rows.

😯CAN YOU BELIEVE WE ARE IN MAY!!!💐

Here's my 2025 Temperature Blanket at the end of April.

What do you think of the May Single Crochet Spike Stitch? I'm looking forward to it.  I think the pattern will really stand apart from everything else we have done so far.  

Please share your Temperature Blanket progress so far no matter where you are at in the project.  I love seeing your colors. 🩷🧡💛💚💙💜🤎

Hi everyone! It’s me again! As you can see, I’m beginning to feel that this 2023 Temperature Blanket and I just aren’t destined for each other. I really seem to have a tension issue and I am getting so frustrated.  The Jan.-June stitches look a little tight so with Tiffany’s (and a few others from the Club) I focused harder on loosening my stitches from July-Sept. but now they look too loose & wavy!! I’m beginning to believe this is the end for me on this project—I’m so tired of frogging😭😭😭

I finished our cardigan for the CAL, the unstructured jacket on Saturday.  

I modified the starting chain and length of garment so it would be 9" shorter. I also modified the placement and size of armhole.
