After I finished up the swap gifts, I took a little break from crochet, knit, all of it. Well, on my mini trip I took my bag with me and did one whole round! haha, not much, but it was something. So, I'm still working on that second panel. I WILL get it done at some point! I'm sure of it!
This evening I've been working on Camille's apron for work. I found the most adorable apron pattern that shouldn't take me too long to complete, but it is all single crochet and I tend to go cross-eyed after a few rows if I don't have a break every now and then.
I've also got to find something for the second swap I'm a part of. This is the one that I kinda took over. It has a project piece that uses over 400 yards of something. That sounds like a lot, but it really isn't. That bag I'm making called for over 600 I think, so that isn't the daunting aspect. I want to make something really beautiful. My swap partner is the sweetest gal and I already adore her to pieces! She's getting married on June 25th so I would like to have the package mailed out to her asap so that it gets to her before she gets married, but I don't know if that will happen. I've been thinking of making my first shawl for the swap but I can't find one that really jumps out at me and really says "Make Me Now!" I keep looking though. I think I have something like 60 or so shawls saved in my favorites queue on Rav so I keep flipping through them. I will find something. I will. I don't have a choice! The best part is that if I do a shawl, you *know* that I will have to buy some yarn because everything I have right now is spoken for....well, maybe I can use the silver/gray from Sunflower Yarns, but that is a wool blend.....hm. Decisions. Decisions.
Oh! And I'm still working on my non-baby baby blanket every once in a while. Just not as often as I would like.
Pictures soon! :)
