Goings On...

Glad the Weekend is here. I have been busy as a bee this week, working on different projects.

On Monday I started another crochet thread project, called Lila, I haven't decided if it will be a top or cardigan until I finish the left side. I am working it up in shaded lavender and a solid lavender. I have completed the back using single crochet and a cross stitch, Now I'm working on the right front which is being done in single crochet with a wide panel of the solid lavender... totally feeling this piece. Tuesday I returned to the Halter top project, which has become a disaster.. I didn't like the way the halter was turning out so I attempted or rather I changed it to a tank.. I'm not happy with the straps, and although I made sure the pieces were assembled on the correct side... one of the pieces ended up on the wrong side... darn it... I need to get an Ott lite. So for now I'll direct my attention to the pants part of this project... crossing fingers, eyes and toes on this one...lol Wednesday, I reorganized my craft paraphernalia, my brother was kind enough to mount my new Baskets that I'd purchased from Target. My brother is too funny, he was like what else are you going to put on this wall.? I have nearly used all of the wall space... and you're only seeing half of the wall...hehe... Thanks Bro....
Thursday, I finished the last of the yarn for Cora... and ventured out to find another skein... no luck... so for now its on hold...






while in search for more yarn for Cora I purchased a few balls of lime colored yarn to mix with my recently received yarn from Mimi Crochet Stuff to do a bikini set for my niece...

and I also purchased more fabric and easy New Look patterns...

Updated Cora in the Works


I've managed to get the back and straps done... and lucky that I'm working it up in Lion Brands Baby Soft yarn b/c you get 459 yards to a skein... so with that I have managed to get a bit done.. and now working on lengthening it... I think I have about a 100 yards left.. so I will continue with it and see how long it gets... then I may go with Del's or Mary's suggestion about using black of which I have some of the black baby soft yarn leftover from a cardigan I did or consider purchasing more. I'm really trying not to buy an additional skein... b/c I'll end up seeing some other colors and start buying unnecessarily.
