Don't Tuesday's come around so quickly? This week I am delighted to have a Ta-Dah! I've finished my snowflake garland! I'm very pleased with it, it looks rather lovely if I do say so myself. Would you like to see?
I'm not sure what to do this week, perhaps I should concentrate on my baby granny squares cushion? I have 53 squares left to do, which is a little more than a week's work I think. Yes, I think I will spend the week on my baby grannies. I'm having urges to start something new, but I've decided that I should finish some other things first and perhaps the something new should wait until the New Year?
I really want to do something special with this yarn but I just can't decide? I'm thinking of either a giant granny square or perhaps little granny squares joined as you go? Any thoughts?Time for the fun bit! If you would like to participate in 'Tuesday's Tallies' please add your details below, remembering to use your the link for your post rather than your blog. You don't have to leave a comment (although it's very lovely when you do!) and it would be great if you could visit some of the links too. If you are participating please could you link back to this post :)
My vote goes for giant granny square lovely colours
ReplyDeleteoops i linked last weeks post sorry carole
ReplyDeleteYour garland is beautiful. I still have hopes of making something like this but with so many presents still to do I'm not sure it will happen. Sadly I've nothing for the one a day tallies this week but I will enjoy looking at everybody's work instead.
ReplyDeleteYour snowflake garland is beautiful, I look forward to seeing what you decide to make with that gorgeous wool.xxxx
ReplyDeleteThose snowflakes look wonderful and so delicate. It is a beautiful garland.
ReplyDeleteI think that yarn would look lovely as a giant granny, strange to say but those colours look so tasty!
Grannies I think. You have such good taste, whatever you decide on will be lovely.
ReplyDeleteI adore that garland! I just bought some crochet snowflakes from Duchal Designs & I think I might have to steal your idea!
ReplyDeleteThe snowflakes came out lovely. And I like your basket with yarns. I noticed you don't a bright/emerald/apple kind of green - is that your choice or are you also limited when it comes to green? I've been searching high a low for a nice briught green, but all we seem to get is olive, mint, lime and similar.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snowflakes - such a perfect contrast with the brickwork. I love your basket of colours too - good luck with trying to wait... or you could just start a massive granny square and add a little now and then :twisted:

Wow the garland is stunning, I would like to make some cotton ones, my acrylic ones didn't come out as delicate. I can see me crocheting some of these on Christmas eve when I hopefully will have finished everything else.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking a new oneaday in Jan, but then I do love a new blanket so if I were you, I know what I would be doing ;-)
Hi Carole,
ReplyDeleteYour snowflake garland is awesome! Looks right at home there on your mantle. Have a great day!

I love the snowflakes. I made some as tree decorations last year but the garland is much more striking :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE the snowflakes! My post is more of how many can I do in one day. Off to finish so of this mess I have gotten myself into. Just 26 more sleeps to go ladies. Deep Breath, Pick up those hooks and needles, and now GET BUSY!!
ReplyDeleteLove you all and have a great day!
arggh I NEED to get back to this- Ive been so bad !
ReplyDeleteYour snowflake garland is cu-ute! Awesome job. Love the idea of how you can use it over and over again and even pass it down to one of your kids.
ReplyDeleteI think the traditional Granny Square blanket that's made up of a lot of squares or even that star one Hilly Town made.
The colors are so fun. How about join-as-you-go using another shape like hexagons or flowers?
ReplyDeleteHi Carole... I'm going with he giant granny vote... you have enough to do without sewing in and sewing up at this time of year...lovely colours too. Your snowflake garland is stunning! :)x
ReplyDeleteLove the snowflakes. Other option is to make bright and beautiful stockings but I still think I'd vote for grannies.
ReplyDeleteI love your snowflakes garland so much! You have found the perfect place for it.
ReplyDeleteI was lying in bed for the last two weeks and could not work on my blanket, I´m trying to catch up now and finish it before Christmas. I will join you again next week!
Have a great day! Barbina
i love your snowflakes!!!
ReplyDeleteYour garland is beautiful - I'm working on something with stars right now. And I haven't been able to post on Tuesday's Tallies this week as I've just too much on and my parents are about to arrive tomorrow!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, Judy xx
all of that yarn looks very tantalising! I'm not going to suggest a ripple! ;O)
ReplyDeleteAlthough.... I did spy a very nice knitted chevron blanket pattern on a friends blog which I'm quite tempted by! Your snowflake garland is just beautiful too. I want to make one now! :oD
XXXXX
Those snowflakes are amazing. they look fab on the brick background. I wish my crocheting was up to it.
ReplyDeleteI really love your snowflake garland ♥! I was going to make some more snowflakes this year (made a couple last year), and now I feel even more inspired to do so! I'm only 6 days late with my blog post and it's not a true Tuesday Tally, but it shows my progress anyway ;)
