Friday Night Sew In...

Last night was really a 'crochet in' rather than a 'sew in' here at my place. DH watched football, yelling occasionally at the TV, and I worked away with my hook and yarn.
I often get squares that have been donated to K4BN that are a bit tiny, so mainly at Knit and Natters, I add rounds to these squares to get them to 25 cm. And I now have a bundle of twenty 25cm squares...
But as I need 30 squares to make a decent sized blanket, last night I crocheted some more squares...but just 'middles' for now. I'll extend them to 25cm at a later stage. 
I'm just using scrap yarn at the moment. At the next Knit and Natter, I'll start adding rounds to make these 25 cm squares.
Linking up with our lovely hostess Wendy here for FNSI.

They look great. I can crochet if my team isn't playing. But if they are I get too into the game and I'm busy coaching and yelling. So I can't do that and crochet lol

That is going to be a very colourful blanket. I find I need to concentrate when I begin a square, so starting them at home sounds like a good plan.

A great project to work on in front of tv.

I like simple projects that can be done while sitting with Terry while he watches TV. The great things about grannies is they use scraps so nicely and don't fill your lap like making afghans does.
