Progress on my tartan in crochet.

Happy #Needleworkmonday everyone!
Just a quick update on my crocheted tartan.

I have been working on the weaving in of the long chains.

Rather than making one chain per row, I am weaving a very long chain back and forth in order to eliminate working in so many ends.image.jpeg

It's going quite slow and I am only one quarter done. I like how it is coming out though. I think the blanket will be quite thick and warm. I wonder if I could turn it into a poncho....

Thank you for looking. See you next week! ❤️

Oh oh oh!! That's so pretty and really cool looking!! I love it. Thanks for sharing the progress and how you're doing it!! :)

Thanks. It's something different for me..and that's always good!

That blanket is looking wonderful @anise! There's lots of work crocheting all the chains and the weaving!
A poncho or ruana (which is like an open poncho) would look cool... but also scarves, bags and so on... I don't think you need to do the whole bag, say just the front or the 'flap' or a pocket.... The possibilities are endless 😊

Thanks. yes it is a lot of chains, but that's one thing I can do with my eyes closed!

I wish it could be done, I think you're doing a good job, the important thing is that everything goes well @anise

Oh cool! I am definitely beginning to see the similarities with the prototype you showed us in your post last week. Lol! To think that I thought you had already completed it then. You're progressing to the climax. I'm happy looking at the progress☺

Thank you! I thing this one is going to take me awhile, but it's fun watching the colours come together!

You're doing a great job, I think you're staying very nice, it would be interesting to see how you turn it into a pocho, I'll wait for you next week

Thank you! 💐

Hello friend how are you, this fabric is very nice thank you for showing me how you go, I admire you because despite everything you do on the farm you still have time to weave you are amazing greetings to candy and your husband

Hello...and thank you! I hope I can get some weaving done this week...the weather is getting nicer and the garden is beckoning 🌷

It would make a beautiful poncho or shawl, I think! The bright blue and green really make it eye catching.

Thank you! I enjoy working with the bright colours for a change.

Wow !!
Fabulous crochet...!!!!
Looking marvelous @anise
