Come join Diary of a SAHM for Happy Homemaker Monday.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was a fairly good week!  I got a lot accomplished and finally made the trip to the chiropractor for my neck.  It bothered me for a few days after getting adjusted but is feeling MUCH better.  Now for this week!
 
The weather outside is::::

It is actually fairly nice outside today.  We had low temperatures for a few days but then yesterday we had a high of 45F!  It was quite refreshing and almost all the snow has melted.

What I am creating at the moment::::

I finally got around to taking pictures of my Attic 24 Moorland inspired Cosy Stripe Afghan.

I still don't have the ends tied in, but other than that it is finished!


My husband saw it as I was working on it and made a claim.  I was a bit surprised that he liked it as much as he does because of the purple.


I really enjoyed this pattern and will be making another one very soon!


 

From the Camera:::
 
 
 I joined a Valentine's swap and received my package on Saturday!  So exciting :)

  3. What a lovely swap package! Your blanket is wonderful, no wonder your husband has claimed it, which is lovely, but a shame you will not be snuggling under it yourself - perhaps he will share!

    Glad your neck is feeling better. Hope you have a wonderful week!

  5. I love the colours in the Moorland blanket - I was seriously tempted to start one myself but I'm still working on the ripple blanket so it has to wait!!

  6. What a fun blanket! Love the mix of the two stitches - I have a project in progress with a similar look. I feel for you on weaving in all those ends! But definitely worth it in the end.
    I am running a year long Granny-Spiration Challenge, and would love if you came and linked up with us :) There’s also a yarn giveaway going on right now. It can be found here: http://eyeloveknots.blogspot.com/2017/02/chunky-like-preemie-granny-square.html
