I can’t believe it’s already day 4 of this Knit & Crochet Blog Week Celebration! Today’s assignment is to show and talk about our favorite colors to work with and what colors are in our stash…
I Love Color! I have so much fun mixing new color ideas in each project… One of my favorite things is to use random colors,,, not trying to match or coordinate… The projects I do this way almost always turn out to be my favorite ones…
Last night I did get done all of my Crochet Goals for the day… I worked on the Ocean Waves Afghan Challenge Blanket… Made a set of Colorful Flower Coasters (see the bottom of this post for a little surprise!), And… I made my first 2 squares for Sarah London’s Crochet-A-Long,,, 2013 Wool-Eaters Motif Blanket… I was one busy Bee!!!! We also had a fabulous Bible Study,,, Such great ladies in my group!

I do lean towards vibrant colors in my projects,,, But Cream is my favorite base color… like in my Sunburst Granny Square Blanket…

My Stash is a completely different story… It has everything.. I try to pick yarn up when it’s on sale… So when I see something that’s a good deal, I grab it! I love working with all types of yarns, but my main stash is Acrylic Yarn and Cotton Yarn… The yarn is available in so many great colors now! Love our choices we have to choose from!
.
This House of Bee’s is going to have to work hard once again today… After work I have to work on both The Challenge Afghan and the Crochet-A-Long… Also,,, I will be working on some project to sell and… Here is my little SURPRISE I promised at the top of the post…
…In the next few days I will post another FREE PATTERN… The Flower Coasters Set Pattern will be available right here at Beatrice Ryan Designs and on my Ravelry Page…
.
So Here is to Color, Yarn and A New Free Pattern!

Also, as you have seen this week in my past posts…. It’s Knit and Crochet Blog Week, Today’s assignment (Day 3) was to place an infographic in the post… Whew… This was something new for me, it took a bit of time to try this new adventure… But, I like how it turned out… What do you think??
.
Maybe I should make more for myself… ( :
.
I still have a few more hours of work at my traditional job…
Two projects for Alpine Originals to finish up,, Another set of Flower Coasters and a Bag… I would like to get at least one finished!
Tonight we start a new Bible Study, I am very excited to get back with my ladies after a short break.
Emails to answer and of course cooking and cleaning….
This is why I have the House of Bee’s as my Mascot… Seems like alot of flitting around and industrious work ahead of me today!!

So Here is to flitting around and being industrious!
