This happens to be my greatest craft related accomplishment in recent times. It is, in fact, the bobble blanket frogged. Yes, I ripped it out. As it turns out I had satiated my craving for crocheting bobbles and I really wasn’t that keen on the blanket. Michaels had this stuff on sale this week so I picked up a couple at the insistence of DH because I really don’t care for the stuff but since I already have this ball, it makes for the cheapest blanket project right now. We’re supposed to be heading out of town this Friday and I needed a simple project to try to work on in the car (I say try because I tend to suffer badly from motion sickness but I’m being optimistic). I’ve picked out a knit pattern for this and will crochet an edge. It’s only going to be small, I’m aiming for 36 inches by 36, and I’m really hoping I don’t have to buy more. The idea was originally to get it out of my stash, not accumulate it.

In case I need a break from it I’m also prepared with patterns and yarn for various washcloths and, of course, pot holders. My intention for the vacation itself, that is, while we’re actually at our destination, is to work on the Tree of Life Afghan.

Now, this all is supposing we do go on vacation this Friday.
