This is mostly a pattern called Hello Spring by Ana Morais Soares.
I did substitute a row of lavender flowers from Carol A Scott for one of the geometric rows in the pattern.
Right now it measures 34 inches high by 39.5 inches wide.

I have finished crocheting the Wild West afghan.
I put an envelope border all around - it covers up all the loose ends that were on the left and right side. I tied the loose ends in pairs before closing the envelope border all around.
It ended up being 37"wide x 63.5"high.
The yarn I used (Stylecraft Special DK) colors and number of skeins:
Now I must pick out some yarn for my next project.
Happy Stitching ♥

I have made a little more progress on my afghan.
The top section is alternating boots and scorpions. I am going to finish that strip and then add the same blue strip that is at the bottom. Then the afghan will measure about 35" x 58".
I am going to study more envelope border tutorials so I can finish this one and pick another one to start.
Have a great weekend of stitching.

I have added a few more sections to the Wild West Afghan.
It currently measures 35 x 47.5 so I am thinking I will add a bit more before I crochet the envelope border that will hide all of the ends on the sides.
Enjoy any stitching time you find this weekend.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the Super Bowl!

This is my current crochet project. The last afghan I crocheted was called a tapestry crochet pattern.
This project is called mosaic crochet, which has several styles and I think this is called overlay mosaic.
It's very new to me so feel free to correct me if I am confused about the terminology. It amazes me that I have been crocheting for 50+ years and there are so many new to me things to learn.
I ordered a couple of patterns from Ravelry
Sos Wild West - Cacti scroll down on this page and there is a link to order all of the Wild West - Episode 1 patterns together instead of purchasing each individual chart.
The top row that I just finished is a free Ravelry pattern
I started this afghan 12/30/22 and I am almost half way done.
Keep stitching ♥
It's about 31" x 31". I used Stylecraft Special DK yarn in white, Candy Floss, Fiesta and Parchment (100 gram skeins).
Merry Christmas to all ♥


This is a free Crochet ALong offered by https://madebyanita.co.uk/ - click here to go to her web site.
When you get to her site, click on the "week one" button to go to the page with download buttons.
One is for a pdf file with US crochet terms and the other is for a pdf file with UK crochet terms.
This was offered on the blog in July (UK crochet terms only). The pdf files are recommended as they offer new instructions that are easier to follow.
I would have expected more progress after seeing how long it's been since my last update.
It may be slow but any progress is OK with me.
