Esta semana voou, de tão rápido que passou... Fiz muita coisa mas nada de especial que envolvesse trabalho manual com agulha.
As poucas carreiras que fiz na manta de colo foram desmanchadas,pois as carreiras que supostamente deveriam ser retas estavam parecendo um mar revolto, cheio de ondas.
Já desmanchei três vezes por não estar totalmente satisfeita com o resultado. São coisas que acontecem quando se usa quadradinhos da vovó feitos por outras mãos. A tensão do ponto nunca é igual e a grossura da lã que estou usando também pode estar influenciando. Já era para esta manta estar pronta, mas enquanto não eu não conseguir um resultado satisfatório, só me restou fazer novas tentativas. Trata-se de um presente, ela será doada para algum idoso residente em um asilo e embora eu não conheça e nem irei conhecer quem irá recebê-la, existe um "controle de qualidade" chamado amor e com ele tenho que fazer o melhor possível.
Ainda não escolhi o gráfico que irei bordar em ponto cruz, mas já decidi que irei bordar barrados em um jogo de toalhas de banho.
Para hoje a tarde pretendo pegar minhas revistar de Ponto Cruz, folhear todas e escolher um gráfico. E se tudo correr bem, hoje mesmo inicio os primeiros pontos.
Aproveito para mostrar pra vocês esta toalha de rosto que bordei anos atrás e que nunca teve sua aparição na net.
E por falar em flores, os Ipês Amarelos (Handroanthus albus) estão anunciando que a Primavera está chegando e estão colorindo de amarelo esta parte do mundo onde vivo.
Desejo um feliz Domingo e uma excelente semana para todos.

You and I, Ivani, can enjoy spring together. =) Spring is looking beautiful in your corner of the world. You are so clever fixing up the little glitches in the granny squares. You have a wonderful heart in donating your time and love to make an elder person's days happier. Your embroidered pansies are so pretty. They most certainly do need to be seen on the internet♡
I think your tension issue may be partially due to yarn weight. It appears in the photo as if your border yarn is lighter than the yarn in the squares. But it looks as if the rows of denser single crochet have solved the problem.
Love your towel, it's very pretty!
Such a pretty border on your blanket! Those trees are gorgeous
you are ready for spring to happen and I'm ready for fall being tired of the heat of summer. I know what you mean about wanting your crochet and knitting to look right before you give an item away - I'm sure whom ever gets it will love it though
The stitching on your towel is so pretty!
Everything is beautiful! I love how you put things together in your crocheting. Thank you for sharing.
Your beautiful view of yellow blossoms definitely mean Spring is coming! I love how you stitch your blankets for the nursing home with such love, Ivani. Those blankets will be so appreciated!
Happy Spring! We hopefully are heading for fall and will get out of this 90-100 degree weather, and then hopefully these wildfires in Northern California will be able to be controlled. Your hand towel is gorgeous! I laid down my knitting and haven't picked it back up as I need to figure out where I was! Hope you have a great week!
That towel that you cross-stitched is beautiful. I love those flowering trees. How beautiful. It looks like you solved the crochet problem. I too could never donate an item that was anything that I wouldn't feel comfortable giving to my best friend. It must look pretty. Enjoy your week!
Happy spring, Ivani.
It looks like you solved the crochet border problem. Your cross-stitched towel is lovely.
The yellow tree is beautiful! Thanks for including the scientific name, so I could find out more about it in English. It was interesting to read about a South American tree that I have never seen before.
It is Spring down here in New Zealand too. I live your pretty embroidered towel, or is it crass stitch? Whatever, you have done a wonderful job on it.
Such a pretty Spring photo and love your gorgeous towel . Your crocheted blanket is looking great and will give some one warmth and comfort . Have a great week.
Th edging of the afghan is lovely, it's not easy to work with blocks made by various people. The trees are beautiful, so colorful! I'm sure they bring joy whenever you see them. Happy stitching!
Hopefully you've resolved the issue with the afgan. It looks great, very pretty colors. Hope you found a fun pattern for your cross stitched towels.
