Pinterest Inspiration: Ocean Waves Baby Blanket
I recently came across a beautiful picture on Instagram of an afghan that was made from corner to to corner. I was instantly intrigued and wanted to try the pattern out myself!
I found the perfect tutorial/pattern by Susan Carlson from Felted Button...Seriously go check out her beautiful patterns!!
Now all I needed was some color inspiration! So I went to my Color Things board on Pinterest, and found this lovely seascape color palette...
Pinterest Inspiration: Mint and Coral Color Inspiriation
Today I wanted to share a pretty palette I've been crushing on! Sometimes when I'm wandering around on Pinterest, I come across a color scheme that I just LOVE! (I often use color schemes I find on Pinterest as inspiration when I'm making afghans and scarves.)
I found this picture a bit ago, and it inspired me to crochet a baby blanket. (I came up with a Flower Granny Square variation on my own and will be posting a pattern for it in the near future!)
Pinterest Inspiration: Rainbow Waves Afghan
Good morning!
I thought I'd share another Pinterest Inspiration project with you today!
A while ago I came across this lovely pin:
I love the serenity and color of this graphic...so pretty!
(ETA: Thank you to Jeannette for directing me to the proper link for the image! You can find the original source HERE.)

I knew immediately that I wanted to try making an afghan that had the same look to it.
And here's my take:
Pinterest Inspiration: End of Winter Cowl
A couple of weeks ago I saw this pretty cowl image floating around Pinterest.
When I looked it up I found out that ChiWei, the designer - from One Dog Woof, was hosting a Crochet-Along, with the End of Winter pattern as the project!
I decided to join in...and I'm so glad I did!
I loved CheWei's beautiful bright pink...but I wanted to use some yarn that I'd had in my stash for a long time, instead. I had this pretty, super-soft Bernat Premium taupe colored yarn...I'd gotten it on clearance, so I'm not sure they even make this anymore!
Pinterest Inspiration: Pastel Granny Afghan
Hi!
I thought I'd start sharing some of my Pinterest inspired projects with all of you!
I LOVE this gorgeous granny square afghan, made by the incredibly talented Petite Pimprenelle. Aren't the colors so pretty and fresh? 'Tart'...just like she describes! Drool! So using this pin as my inspiration I decided to make my own version!
