In a salute to Dr. Seuss, I am using his naming method for the bits and parts for my crazy quilt style afghan. Meet Thing One, a burgundy mitered square made using a pattern in Myra Woods' book, Crazy Lace. I k3tog for the center decrease to make a prominent stitch pattern. Holding two strands of DK together, I knitted with size 8 needles. So, hello to Thing One and the beginning of a joyful project. I am excited to see where this project will take me!

I have been keeping swatches of my handspun that I knit for people to see. One day...they will become a crazy afghan too. I love Thing 1 and Thing 2 and the Dr. Seuss theme for the square naming.
Hooray for knitting in public.
Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
Thank you for joining in on the fun.
I love it! I'm thinking of crocheting a ripple afghan out of my leftover handspun mini-skeins, maybe I should get going on that!
Could this be true?!? Another Coloradoan who loves baseball and Fiber Arts Friday?!?
Yay and Welcome Aboard!!
... oh and dogs! I think I'm gonna like you. ;-)
Your project sounds wonderful!
I love knitting little swatches. It's instant gratification. :)
Yeah for Dr Seuss!!
Thanks for sharing with Crafty Friday.
You're lucky to be getting a jump-start on spring! Enjoy your AZ travels. Afghan squares are great projects for traveling.
