I have finished this granny square (yay me!) haha. Am I doing something wrong? The slip stitch at the end of the row is visible. Is there something I’m doing wrong or how can I hide this better?
When are the baby blankets due for warm up America
What do you do to make yourself feel better when you need to smile (besides shop for yarn)? I go on line and shop for original & unique types of cactus & succulents. This is a perfect hobby for someone in Jersey.
Hello fellow crafters, I wanted to share some deals I got from Michaels because you can get them online and shipped to you if they don't have them in the store (which mine usually doesn't).
They have some Caron Cinnamon Swirl 8 oz (407 yd) cakes regularly $12.99 clearanced for $5.00. They had 3 colors I believe.
Next they have Caron Blossom Cakes (8 oz/481 yds) regularly $12.00 clearanced for $5.00. Again there are 2 or 3 colors I think.
I love the Lion Brand Basic Stitch Skein Tones yarn and found a specific pattern (Mocha Ripple Afghan) that uses each of the colors. My store actually had all 9 colors which are 3.5 oz/185 yd and are regularly $5.99 clearanced for $3.00. While not as good a deal as the Caron cakes, I'll be able to make a small blanket for $27.00.
The last deal, which I will have to get online, is the Loops & Thread Cozy Boucle yarn. This is a size 6 yarn (5.29 oz/166 yd) Clearanced at $3.00 a skein. and since it's Super Bulky, I think I can make a baby blanket for about $15.00. This is 100% polyester which is usually able to be thrown in the washer and then a low heat dryer but the care instructions on these say hand wash and not to iron. Anyway...

Tiffany,
I’m working on the May 9th row, which is the second Row 1 in May. I have been counting 192 stitches total so far, but somehow this row came out with 191 stitches. The FPDC and BPDC seem to be matching up though. Do I need to pull everything out and try to figure out where things got off and how to fix it? Is it okay to just go with 191 stitches for the rest of the month? I think this row feels different since the first row one wasn’t on top of a FPDC/BPDC row, but not entirely sure.
Thanks!
Sent in my donation for the Soap Sack Campaign and received an extremely lovely hand written thank you note. Here is a picture of the 8 sacks I sent in.
The term "pooling" is used when the colors of a semi-solid, speckled or variegated yarn all come together in the same place in a knitted fabric. It is easier to illustrate this concept in a picture with a variegated yarn : Here is a perfect example of "pooling".
