| In Which I Oopsed Another Birthday |
So yesterday was my mother's birthday. I had forgotten. I always forget. I have a major problem with annual dates. I literally only remember my birthday, my partner's birthday, Christmas, New Year and Halloween. That's it. I remember literally nothing else.
I needed a quick gift for her.
After about two hours of rapidly skimming the Thread-Weight Free Patterns on Ravelry, I found this pattern. While it was technically an afghan square and therefore any-weight yarn or thread, I decided I'd give it a go with some dusty rose thread and a 1mm hook:

My only alteration is a row of sc all around the square with ch3 at each corner (to maintain cornery-ness). I clipped the thread and wove it in with an embroidery needle, and I was finished just in time to deliver it in person!
It seemed like a happy birthday, to me :)
All told, this project probably took anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour (I was not paying attention to the time :| ).
So yes, if you're looking for a quick project to make for an occasion (or you'd like to make yourself a cool looking afghan), then definitely try the pattern!
Go Enjoy Something
