Stripy Fun

Im almost at the end 

of this stripy goodness

This has been one of my 

favorite things to crochet

Lots of colors and 

stripy patterns

I was a little worried

about maintaining my stitch count

But with stitch markers 

its been pretty easy

I cant wait 

to get to the end of one row

and start another color and pattern

Now to decide 

on the color(s) for the border

Im thinking maybe red

Ta Da.....

Well it seems I have been 

working

on

this

f o r e v e r

Its done except for 

weaving in some of the ends 

....which can wait a while

you cant see them can you???

HA.......the blue one needs the ends woven in too....I hate that part

I started looking around the internet

for my next project 

I came across this 
crochet along on

littlewoollie's blog

Im somewhat of a perfectionist

so I hesitated on making this

because she mentioned that

the ends may become uneven

because of the different stitches

Which means to me a LOT

of counting and paying attention

But I really like the color

and the different stitches

so.....I went thru my yarn 

and gathered the colors that

were similar to hers and got started

So this is is how far I got 

over the week end

and I am enjoying the process

Its not the colors I normally choose

but I really like it!

To keep track of the stitch count I 

put small safety pins 

every 20 stitches

As I complete the row

I move them up and this has 

worked really well to keep

the stitch count consistent

As I look at the pictures here

Im thinking.....

What have I gotten myself into???
