Being apart of the group...

I enjoy crocheting so much that I have joined several more Yahoo exchange groups. I am now in the CL Ornaments, CL Dishcloths, CL Doily/Coaster, and I just joined a new one today that is for exchanging anything crochet related. I have completed my 2nd exchange round in the ornaments group, my first round with the dishcloth group and I am getting ready to send my JIC (Just In Case) package to the doily/coaster group so I can get started with them next round.

Right now I am working on 2 different projects. I am making a varigated ripple afghan for my husband and myself and I am making a rectangular baby granny square blanket. I love making baby size afghans because they work up so fast, not because I actually have someone I am making them for, lol

First Crochet Exchange...

Well I completed my first crochet exchange a few weeks ago and it was fun. You get a partner and both of you list things and colors that you like and then you make something to send to them. We kind of had a theme this month which was Valentineso I made my partner a neat heart shaped coaster and then I made 2 other regular round coasters in a red, pink, white varigated cotton yarn- Peaches N' Cream. I posted pics of both in the Coaster section. My partner made me a really cute crochet doll and 2 coasters. I posted pictures of those in the exchange section.

I enjoyed that exchange so much that I am going to do it again in March and I also joined a dishcloth exchange for March as well. I can't wait to see what I get from that one!
