What are you working on?

I'm working on this ----> Candy Blocks Afghan and I have 7 more large squares to go and then I have to put it together. I love Bernat Satin, it's sooo soft.

I'm making this: http://cache.lionbrand.com/patterns/...leBlanket.html

And working on designing a bridal veil (no reason other than I want to do it)

That baby blanket is so cute ~ make sure you post a picture when you are done. What color are you using?

Wow on designing the veil ~ I bet it'll be gorgeous!

The blanket is dark purple - done in Luscious yarn. It's for my soon-to-be granddaughter.

The veil is just something I've always wanted to do, and since I'll be off work for 8-16 weeks, I decided now was a good time to do it. I have the outline sketched out, and I'm researching antique lace patterns to decide what I want the actual pattern to look like.

Congrats on your soon-to-be granddaughter!

I can't imagine the work that goes into designing and making a veil. Keep posting about it as you go along because I am really interested

The blankets are nice.

Right now I am not working on anything, but I am trying to figure out some smallish projects to keep me busy while I am shacking up in the hospital room

That Bernat afghan looks fabulous! I couldn't pull up the Lions Brand one though.

I just finished knitting my dog a sweater, now I need to whip up a baby sweater for a gift. I've been trying to finish my UFOs, with the exception of the baby gift.

ooo Love the afghan you are making. What colors are you using? I have the "Babette" afghan on my list to make and yours reminds me of it. Anywho I'm making little amigurami animals right now - just finished a kitty and now I am ready to start a little chick. I'm in a funny mood and can't seem to commit to making something bigger now - must be summer - lol!

I am using the same colors as in the picture ~ I'll be sending it to DD when I finish and she will love the colors

I've seen the Babette afghan ~ I have that on my list, too

That's a beautiful afghan!
I'm working on a granny square, baby blanket myself.
No pattern, just basics - it's a quickie!

I don't know why I am finding it so hard to finish up this afghan

~ I need to just sit down and do it!

I'm working on this crocheted quilt. It has 768 pieces...I don't know what I was thinking! LOL Needless to say it's going to take a very long time.
