Positivity Mandala

This is the Positivity Mandala by the incredibly talented Lucy from Attic24. Her designs and use of color are sublime and so incredibly well-written and easy to understand! I am IN LOVE with this design and already have plans to make more. In fact, I have two on request from my kids. 

Mandala excitement

I LOVE mandalas! I love crocheted mandalas, drawn and painted mandalas. I love mandalas of all types. They're peaceful and beautiful and they have mean spiritual meaning.

A mandala represents wholeness, a cosmic diagram reminding us of our relation to infinity, extending beyond and within our bodies and minds.

The mandala appears to us in all aspects of life, the Earth, the Sun, the Moon and more obviously the circles of life encompassing friends, family and communities.

Borrowed from the Spiritual Awakening blog.

So yeah, I have a thing for Mandalas. 

I crocheted this one in July of 2016. This one is the Dream Catcher Mandala from The Loopy Stitch

This beauty is called The Positivity Mandala from Lucy at Attic24 I am completely and utterly IN LOVE with this Mandala! The above picture is Lucy's but I am DEFINITELY making my own this weekend! In fact, I am starting it this evening and will be posting about it soon! 

Clown Car

The latest square in my greens blanket. It's called Clown Car by Polly Plum and I LOVE it!

Choosing cokor order

Rainy day

This is a wonderful way to spend a rainy Saturday!

Hearts

Star Crossed

This square is called Star Crossed by Helen Shrimpton. I am really enjoying making these squares (which will be turned into a rather large blanket) in cotton yarn. 

New crochet project

I'm starting a new CAl - Crochet Along - with Coastal Crochet. This is called the Seaside Stash Busting Blanket. This is meant to be a slow CAl and will only consist of four rows per week until about September. However, at the moment I am a tad behind as the CAL began six weeks ago. So I am currently playing catch up. The above four rows are from week one of the CAL. The hot pink and dark gray are the colors I will use to complete week two. I'm loving this project already and excited to continue it over the next several months.

Another square

I love this square SO MUCH! I'm having such fun working with the greens and ivory. I'm using cotton yarn and it is so soft while being great to work with. 

The humble granny square

Sometimes I just want to make a humble but in my opinion awesome granny square. I'm especially happy with this one in all the greens and the ivory. I've already added it to the blanket I'm making too and it looks great! So happy about this color selection and the blanket itself. I'm making it in cotton and it's so  soft and lovely. 

Love this square

I love this square and think it is beautiful. However, I am grateful to be done making it. Have a great weekend everyone!

New square

Here's my first square in my new greens and ivory for this new blanket. I love all my colors but feel that this square looks a little busy. Oh well, I'm glad I tried out all the new colors. Now I know I want to use less of them for each square moving forward.
