As this is my first crochet along, may I just say that I suddenly feel very slow and unproductive? I had gotten as far as printing the instructions out, and there were a lot of people who were already posting that they had finished all six squares required for part one. Some had even started a second set. I have now officially finished 1 square. This pattern uses a bunch of techniques from making the petals in the front loops and the rounds in the back loops to turning a circle into a square. I did have to do some frogging twice, but since the squares aren’t large it wasn’t too bad.
It’s been a busy weekend with the Independence Day holiday and all of the barbecues and fireworks that come along with it, so I’m not holding out any hope that I will get through the remaining 5 before it is over, but since the next part won’t be released until Thursday, I should be on track.
That is really Beautiful. I can’t wait to see it finished.
It was the flower squares that convinced me to try it.
That is so pretty!
I know I will be using this for other projects. I think it would look good as accent squares in an afghan.
That sounds like a competitive group! Once you get the hang of the pattern, I imagine you’ll get caught up quickly enough.
Competitive, yes! Some are even making their own buttons for the flower centers. But I’m trying to be inspired rather than getting caught up in the comparison trap.
