In Progress: Weekend in Stockholm Throw - Debbie Stoller

Here I am!

Yup... Still here...

Sorry I've been so bad about writing.  I just haven't been myself lately.  

And unfortunately, it affects my writing (and my knitting, for that matter).

Anyway, I finally grew a brain and decided to make one of each color combo square, rather than make all 4 or 6 at a time.

This came after realizing that I really am not crazy about these two color combos:

I dunno... I like the red.  And I LOVE the purple.  But I just don't care for the two together!

They're just not my fav.

So my thought was...

I'd continue making one of each, just to see if there are any other color combos I'm not crazy about...

And then, I can change 'em up my way!

So everything's done in terms of having one to see.

See... I just really don't like those colors.  Even seeing them in the pattern whole!

Those are really the only 2 that I don't like. 

So I'm gonna make all of everything else.  Then, with whatever yarn I have over, I'll make some color combos that I like!

Maybe somethin' like this:

Or how about this:

And here are past posts on this lovely throw:

Weekend in Stockholm Throw - Debbie Stoller (Stitch 'n Bitch)

So, speaking of Debbie Stoller...

I am having a bit of craft-ADD and am now also working on her Weekend in Stockholm throw.

With her new yarn, of course!

 

The first set of 6 squares are worked in 

Meadow, Mediterranean, Peony and Little Lamb.

So here's my first set of 6 squares...

There are 6 rounds total here.

The first 2 rounds are knit in Meadown, 

the 3rd round in Mediterranean, 

the 4th in Peony 

and 5th &6th in Little Lamb!

I've completed the first set of 6 and am now starting the 2nd set.

There's a lot to go but this works pretty quickly!

This pattern is fairly easy.  I was a bit confused in the beginning but, what else is new, right?  ;-)

With a little help from my mom, I was able to figure things out and have been quickly moving along ever since!

I am still working on my bathing suit (which I'll post on next), but I'm focused on this throw...

I don't wanna lose momentum on this one.

I don't want it to become another UFO!!!
