Sunday Stash Busting: Two By Two

It's a good thing there was no Punto yarn to be found at the craft store last week.
The cotton bits I've gathered together have taken me further than I expected in the stash busting process.
There's now a total of 26 of these kitchen lovelies.
Pattern can be found here.
They can be used as doilies or coasters or dishcloths.
Today it was back to school and boy did the day go fast.

Have a great day!

    My GOSH, Tammy. Those are awesome. Strung all together, they'd make a fabulous quilt or colorful wallhanging! Fabulous job! Susan

    HiTammy

    The stack of doilies looks pretty. You have real patience. To create 26 of the same design isn't possible unless you like doing it! Good to see that you achieved so much during your break and made good use of every bit!!

    So much variety and I love the many colors! My palette tends to be very limited, and I admire knitters who really play with color :)

    By the way, I discovered this morning that I have been missing blog posts from many of my favorite bloggers (including you) because a couple of weeks ago I started to shift from Google Reader then got distracted by other events and forgot. Working on it today, though, so I hope I'll get caught up and not miss any of your posts in future!!

    Since I've haven't been feeling well and haven't been feeling like doing much of anything...but since I can't really sit still for too long I've been crocheting and knitting a lot. Mostly sweaters for my dolls. It's been fun and it has helped me pass the time while I am on the mend. Looks like your little fingers have been busy crocheting too. Your kitchen lovelies are well, lovely :-) wishing you a wonderful day.

    Hugs,
    ❤Ana

    Hi Tammy. Sorry that I haven't visited for so long. I've missed you all! I really enjoyed today's post. I too, have an awful lot of bits of wool'. What a good idea! When I was in hospital last year I took some wool to crochet and have made quite a lot of hexagons. I don't quite know what do with them!
    Loved your mix of colours too. I must have a look at your patterns!
    Thanks a lot. Joan

    I love your Stash Buster projects. I haven't been back to crocheting for very long so I don't have much yarn to play with.
