[/quote]Thanks for joining in!I can definitely relate to having several projects going at once. I think it keeps our creative spirit alive if we allow ourselves to make as many things as we want! Anyway, if we decide we don't like a project, we can unravel it without worries, because we have so many other items on the needles and hooks.
You are so right--love the variety!!! Since I have recently added several more storage tubs of yarn to my stash (found them in the attic), I must begin using stash yarn.
I found some really pretty green and white Bernat Baby Sport that is working beautifully with this pattern. I love the flower motif--really cute. I found that if I used a diaper pin and pinned the two motifs together about half way down, I could more easily do the chains and connecting stitches and did not have the work twisted. Also, I am not too concerned about counting stitches after I finish counting the connecting chains--just making sure I alternate sc and dc and keep the pattern going correctly--I was beating myself up trying to be sure I had exactly 106 stitches (second row of body) when it doesn't seem necessary.
This is really fast--finished both motifs and started the body this afternoon and am looking forward to working on it more later this evening. I look forward to hearing about experiences others are having.
I hope it's better next year.
