Needlework Monday - SBD Giveaway Winners Announced!- Crocheted Baby...

Wowsers!!!! I don’t know about you but I am still overwhelmed from reading all of the wonderful entries last week! We had such a great time sharing with the Steemit world why we love #NeedleWorkMonday, the people who inspire us and why others should join us every Monday!

I didn’t call this a competition but rather a challenge. There was no way I could have judged those entries. Each one was special and written straight from the hearts of the needleworkers and that’s just something you can’t put a place on. Instead Hive account@crystalize used a random number generator to pick the receivers of the SBD. The winners are as follows:

15 SBD goes to Hive account@akipponn
10 SBD goes to Hive account@carolinacardoza
5 SBD goes to Hive account@mtnmeadowmomma
3 SBD goes to Hive account@xorexman
2 SBD goes to Hive account@tali72

Congratulations to each of you that had their name drawn!! Please check your wallets because your SBD is there!! 😃

Thank you to all of you that participated with wonderful write ups! I hope you had just as much fun as I did!!

Baby Blanket Update!

I am thrilled to report I am finished crocheting the blanket and am now working on the edging!! Whooo Hooo!! Finally!! I am so glad I went with Hive account@elew’s advice to crochet over my ends instead of sewing all of them in. It would have taken ages to get that done because there were tons of them if you remember...

I kept the knots on them to make sure the blanket does not unravel. Once I wash it that should help seal those ends in for good keeping them from peaking out.

For the edging I first did a round of single crochet over the entire blanket (3 sc in each corner). Then for round two I chained 3, skipped the next stitch and slip stitched into the next. I have two more sides to do before it’s completed. I’ll then show you the blanket in it’s entirety.
