While going through storage, Mom found a bunch of squares she had knit and crocheted for afghans that have since been abandoned.I brought them to Gauge on Saturday for their charity projects.
These are crocheted. I had to do some color correction on the white squares, so I'm not sure how accurate the color is here.
These are from a Barbara Walker pattern.
I decided to start with the white knit squares. I tried crocheting them together, and finally decided I could do a neater seam by sewing them together.
Here's how far I got on Saturday. I'm still debating what to do once they're all attached. I'm hoping to make a lap blanket.Finally, here's a bonus picture of Karli's Hanami, made with Sea Silk. It was too good not to take a picture.
My sister moved into her first apartment recently, and while I was there I came across the turtle she crocheted for her boyfriend a while back. Look familiar? I know this kid liked it.
This picture is actually out of date. All I have left to do at this point is weave in the ends and block the scarf. Once I block this, I'm digging into my Malabrigo Silky Merino.

Nice squares, the white ones with all the variety of stitches. Like you, I often find stitching them together is easier then crocheting them; especially if you're trying to make things fit together.
Popped over from Donate a Square on RAV, though I blog here on blogger too.
Did you find a home for your odd squares?
