Hexie in the WoRkS

Hello!!

Thought I'd quickly pop in to share a picture of my Hexagon Blanket (or "Hexie" as I've lovingly begun to call it), in progress.  I took this shot this morning and am hoping to make some more hexagons tonight or tomorrow to add to it.  It's beginning to take shape quite nicely and I'm very happy with how the colours are working together.

I took this photo this morning as well of my project bag (made for my by the very talented Elly) because I thought it looked pretty.  The other project that is in there is what's keeping me from working on Hexie at the moment.  I haven't mentioned anything about it on the blog yet since I'm not sure how it's going to turn out.  I hope to have the knitting part of it finished tonight though, so there might be a post about it yet.   

Well, I'm off to make a cup of tea and get to that knitting.  Have a great evening everyone!!

The Hexagon Blanket - The Beginning

Good Morning!!

I've got the beginning of a NEW project to share with you all today!!  Above and below are pictures of the Thaki Cotton Classic that I'm using to make a Hexagon Blanket.  I got some from Elly and Susan in the Itty-Bitty swaps and I picked up the rest while in California - there will be a lot of lovely memories in this blanket!  I'm using the tutorial from Lucy of Attic24 to make up my little hexagons.  So far I've only got a few done, but I'm trying to take my time and work at them when I feel like it.  This is going to be a slower and less-stress project than most, since I'm not putting a ton of pressure on myself to finish it up right away.  I like the enjoyment of working on it slowly :) 

I don't have a progress picture yet since the weather has been more overcast the last few days, but when we do get some sun, I will take a few to share. 

Well, that's all for today.  I hope you have a fantastic day and remember to take the time to enjoy your crafting!!

Lots of Love xx
