Not Quite a Square a Day in May... 3

Well, I was making good progress for a while there. And then life happened!!! Don't we all know how that is?!

Anyways, here's a quick pic (I will get better one's later):

I decided to start the potholders. After much deliberation, I decided to just wing it and do my own thing. Front post doubles throughout, finished with a cluster stitch edging. Def. need better pic to show of it's texture, and therefore insulating, properties... oh ya, and to test them to make sure they actually work:)

The blanket isn't what I had originally planned, but I figured if I didn't just dive in and do SOMETHING, the damn thing would never get done! So I just picked up the yarn and hook, and went at it. Surprisingly, for Granny Squares being the "it" thing of crochet, I actually don't have any in my house yet, so I feel this will be a good addition to the crochet collection around here!

A couple more headbands are done. Trying to come up with colour combos and patterns that I want to repeat. I think I am going to try one with a shell stitch next and see how that looks. Did work out how to make it reasonably adjustable using a hair tie too (the vertical one in the pic above). Working a little more on that idea too to see where it can go and to check it's practical applications/looks.

I actually did this post on May 18th, and just added the pic and posted now... how sad is that???
