Cha-cha-cha-changes....

The Halfknits have been together a long time. We are constantly changing and improving ways we do things. There are so many talented ladies in our group, with so many wonderful ideas!

The beauty of our group is that we are always open to improving the way we do things. We want to provide not only warm, but well made items and complete them in the most efficient way possible. This year we decided to make one group blanket each month using 9” blocks.  Why 9” blocks? We felt it was a good size and that the 6” block patterns could easily be converted to 9 inches. We are all enjoying the bigger blocks and assembling them is so much easier and goes quicker. It is also nice to have one blanket that everyone works on. 

Our January Blanket was made with I Love This Yarn! The blocks are Dark Denim and Summer Sky and the blanket is edged and framed in brown.

Our February Blanket was made with I Love This Yarn! The blocks are in Dark Raspberry and Old Rose and it is framed and edged in Grey Beard.
