The week in review: October 28 through November 1, 2012

Here is what I worked on today.

First I had to choose. Should I fold the body of the future fat bag this way:

crochet square fat bag
Fold for a wider fat bag

or that way:

crochet square fat bag
Fold for a deeper fat bag

I settled on “that way” and began gathering the ends that will be the front and the back of the bag.

Here is one view:

and here is another:

Next, I ventured into my crochet empire for the express purpose of finding unfinished objects from stash down challenge 2011.

While I know there more unfinished projects, I found two:

this crocodile stitch shawl:

and this bag made using Alice Merlino’s large Starling Handbag pattern:

My guess is these three projects will keep me busy for at least this weekend, and here is the week in review:
