karen4bells 2018 projects--2 new projects page 4
First is one that Debby was so kind to send me the chart of, Dimensions Penguin--I used Victorian Motto threads to substitute and left off the lettering in the scarf--stitched it up on a hand dyed 18 count aida with silver accents--love how it turned out!!
I am now stitching Lanarte Owl from a kit--subbed out the 27 ct white evenweave for a 32 count hand dyed linen I had in my stash
Here is what the finished design will look like
And here is my progress after a little over a week stitching

I LOVE the little penguin, so colourful and the fabric sets it beautifully.
You already made good progress on the owl. Looking forward to seeing more.

That Owl's Eye is almost hypnotising!! Normally big eyed designs aren't my favourite, but this one is Stunning!!
Love that wee penguin too!

Re: karen4bells 2018 projects
I took a couple of weeks off of stitching on the owl, due to wanting to crochet up a small afghan so I could use up some of my numerous odds and ends of skeins of yarn--glad I did--while it isn't the most elegant design I am happy and it will be nice to have on hand. First, here is the update on the owl, not a lot of progress but some
and here is what my afghan looks like--well half anyway--as I couldn't get a good photo showing it's entirety--measures about 36 by 48 inches

The owl is so gorgeous, really lifelike. Well done on doing some more of it
The blanket is colourful & a good way to use up odds & ends.

2 really fantastic and colourful projects... that Owl he/she is magnificent and that crochet afghan is going to keep someone really warm and snug.
Re: karen4bells 2018 projects--updated 2 18 18
I agree completely! If you want more leftover yarn I have plenty (guess its still good) from my long ago crocheting days.wendywombat wrote:2 really fantastic and colourful projects... that Owl he/she is magnificent and that crochet afghan is going to keep someone really warm and snug.
