Catch Up Post: Works in Progress

I currently have three crochet projects in the works, several of which have been in progress for some time!

First, there is Great Granny, which is a pattern from Crochet Today. I am making this for my stitching chair, but the project is on hold for now while I finish up some gift projects.

Next, there is a prayer shawl that I have been making for my dear friend Amy. She picked out the yarn in March, so it has been slow going. I had to set it aside recently to work on a baby gift for an imminent arrival. Besides, who needs a shawl in South Georgia in the summertime?! :)

Finally, here is the baby throw. I started this project using another pattern, but it was too complicated for a movie watching project, so I frogged it and started over with a mindless pattern. Actually, I like the way the painted yarn works up in this pattern much better, so the change was a good one for more than one reason!

I am expecting an extremely rare evening to myself tonight, and I am hoping to get to a new stitching endeavor, if all goes according to plan...
