Square Swap (For Crochet/Knitting)

Bit · 03-07-2010, 08:09 PM

More pink and green squares are GREAT, Liz! I was going to make extra for the raffleghan too, to make it bigger. Thanks for yours also!!

I keep thinking I have my squares all caught up and then I find a mistake and have to fix it.

So the count now is three finished, the fourth with one row to go, and the fifth with two rows to go. Sheesh. *sheepish look*

But the good news is that I only have three rows to go and I can start my sixth square, right?

So I have a question... should I wait until I have them all done to start sending them out, or should I send them out as I finish each one?

Welll.....So I thought I was almost done with the squares for the swapghan then I remeasured. Don't ask me how I did it; but I swear they measured 12 x 12, but ummmm I have a couple that are a litttle bit longer then 12 x12. So unless someone doesn't mind one that is a tad longer then I shall be re-knitting them. ugh....

I figured I would send mine all out at once.

As far as the raffleghan I will knit those when I am done with the swapghan.

do not redo mine, it will be fine, I can block it to go with mine.

I'm good! I have at least 6 squares.

Hey sweetcali, don't redo my square either--I'm going to set them all with sashing like a quilt, so it will work out just fine.

I can really relate to thinking they all measured out; mine turned out to be eleven inches after I remeasured, and I was shocked, lol....

I have the same issue in that some of mine came out bigger. I have them all done, and thought that once I finish the afghan I am making for Momma's 75th bday later this month, I would take off the extra rows before I send them out.

One would think that since I count things for a living, I woulda noticed sooner!! ugh.
