Do you see this blanket?! So I have been crocheting blankets for a few weeks now. Not a long time and I am so happy with what I have learned and what I've done. However with all that being said.... I am LOVING this blanket!!! I am trying to do a thin red line blanket and I know I haven't even gotten to the hard part yet so I know there will be frustration to come. While I know this, I am reveling in this love feeling. I can see it coming together and I am so excited to finish it. It's my nightly project due to the color changes in it. No transporting it to and from Chris's house. The next picture will have the red line in it, so maybe another day or two.

Thank you :) I used a lot of youtube videos and I still watch them. I'm even starting seed beading and I'm going to try epoxy tumblers again.

That's coming along nicely and can't wait to see it with the red line. Working with black is hard.,

It is but I'm just taking my time with it. I have I think...four more lines before the red one and then the difficult part comes which is the flag square and stars.

@JordanLader your project sounds really nice and you're really doing well with your crocheting. You certainly don't sound like someone who never crocheted before.

@Marilynda1225 lol some things I can pick up on quick and others take time. I'm still working on the magic circle thing. I still also really need to work on tension but if I was perfect it wouldn't be any fun lol
