I've been doing quite a bit of crocheting lately. This is the start of my latest project. I first saw the photo of this blanket on Pinterest and then pinned it to my Pinterest page. I kept looking on line and finally found that the source of the blanket is on a blog called buscandocomienzos. The blog is in Spanish, and I know just enough Spanish to ask how long you've been here and how to find the bathroom. (OK maybe a bit more than that.) Using translator (which is always an adventure) and the photos, after some trial and error I was able to figure out the decrease stitch where the grannie squares join.
I really love this blanket, and it is going together pretty quickly.
I hope you are stitching today.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit!

Oh, love the colors, and love the display! Where's the snow???? LOL! Strange Feb.
ReplyDeleteVery nice - I like it! All because of you, I recently purchased a big ole bag of yarn to start making some granny squares..
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, LuAnn.
ReplyDeleteAt least if we were lost in a Spanish speaking country together we would find a bathroom--that is about all I can remember, too. : )
I love your crochet projects! Very creative to sleuth out the pattern. I bet it's good for the wrist etc. to have the corchet motion in between sewing.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love this. You will be doing a tutorial??? Yes, please. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning project! Like JudyD, I hope you will teach all of us. If we say "pretty please with peanut butter on it?" lol
ReplyDeleteI can knit, but I can't crochet. :-)
ReplyDeleteI like the pictures you took, and this will become a great blanket I totally like the beginning.

What an awesome start to this afghan! I've never seen this pattern before - it's wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing this beautiful piece when it's done!
What a gorgeous beginning - the colours are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteOh wow...that's going to be a great afghan!
ReplyDeleteLove your new project LuAnn, but how can I go back to crochet and make hexies too?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great afghan, my two favorite patterns in one. If you do a tutorial, I might give it a try, too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!!! You are so talented!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, LuAnn it's going to be fantastic.
ReplyDeleteAnd on point like that too!!
Love the colours LuAnn I do admire anyone who can crochet like you. I can only manage very simple things.
ReplyDeleteI love your afghan. I see, from a previous comment, that the original tutorial has been translated into English so I'm going to check that site.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like something that would be really cool to do for a different looking baby afghan (I have a step-GD coming soon).
Love the colors. I just purchased loads of yarn from an estate sale. I would like to try this pattern,--did you happen to write it English? My spanish consists of adios and hola'
