Tuesday's Tallies.......Springtime Throw.



Hi there, I hope you've all had a good week, I'm back today with my One a Day, I didn't have much to show you on last week's Tuesday's Tallies but I've made up for it this week.
I've managed to complete 72 and part finished 36 so hopefully by next week I will be able to join up some more squares to my Springtime Throw.
I know that's way more than one a day but they are tiny squares, I started this a year ago now and I really want to get it finished.




I always like to make 216 squares so I have six of every colour combination before I double crochet them to my throw in a random order.
I've only got one ball of each colour left so I'm on the home run now and maybe by next month I will have a Ta Dah for you.

I've also crocheted a teddy bear for a Christening present this week, thanks to my IG friends we decided to name her Elsie, you can see her here if you didn't see her on my last post.

Thanks for looking, don't forget how everyone else has got on this week, here.

This is so pretty already. What yarn did you use? I'm sure you have mentioned it before but I can't remember.

Nicole said...

Wow!! I'm so impressed with how many squares you made this week, that's a phenomenal amount :) You'll be ready to sew them together in no time, can't wait x

Your squares are so pretty lovely colours. But i have to say your little bear in your last post is adorable what a gorgeous gift ;-) dee x

Don't your little squares look beautiful! They are so cheerful and I cannot wait to see the throw coming together. Are you making yours as large as the pattern? I remember it saying it is large and takes a good deal of yarn. I have some yarns saved up in my stash for mine. I do not probably have enough and need to check so I will not come up short when I do. What color are your outer joins going to be? Well done on getting so much done!

Hugs from Holland ~

Looking lovely. I started mine 6 months ago and have only about 70 squares made. Really need to get on with it as it is such a lovely pattern and seeing yours is making me want to get on with my springtime throw. But must get the little squares finished first.

Will I see you on Saturday at the crop?
