Counting Stitches / Crafters, Embroiderers, and Sewists Can Join In, Too

Dear users, dear authors,
how many stitches are you managing today?
How many needle stitches, how many paper cutouts can you manage?
Let me know.

Hi,

I’ve already crocheted 320 stitches this morning before work.

I’m sure I’ll add quite a few more tonight.

Best regards, Heike

The current total stands at 1,248 knitted stitches. But there are still more to come.

I always do my handmade crafts in the evenings, so I haven’t cut anything out yet today, and tonight will probably be all about gluing. But I have already done some crocheting today—all 80 stitches—two rounds of a doll’s leg :-D.
Oh, that just occurred to me: I did do some cutting today after all, but not paper—instead, old towels that I’m sewing into a rug for the bathroom, so that’s an upcycling project.

Inna:
Your bathroom rug project sounds exciting. You’ll definitely show us the photos here, right?!

I haven’t done anything yet. But Anton just fell asleep and the housework is almost done. So I’m about to get started

@Arni,
the idea isn't new and it isn't mine, and since the rug probably won't be finished for another 1,000 years, I'll show it right away :-).



This is roughly what it's supposed to look like, just much bigger :-).
Have fun with your handwork.

Inna: Okay, it’s still a bit small for a rug. But it looks good.

It didn’t go quite as well for me. 348 single crochet stitches.

Oh well—at least I spent half the evening finishing up the photo books on my computer and just ordered them. That wraps up my Christmas projects (except for the doily for my mom). 

I managed to do quite a bit of crocheting last night.

So I ended up with a total of 2,981 stitches yesterday.

Best regards, Heike

Yesterday I crocheted this great autumn leaf. That was all the time I had. I don’t know the exact number of stitches, but feel free to count them if you’d like ;)

Yesterday I crocheted a little comfort blanket. I’d guess there were about 950 stitches. 

I’m currently working out a new knitting pattern on paper—tonight I’ll put it to the test, so we’ll see how it goes ;)

@Inna,
how about taking part in the September projects?
September Projects: UFO Week, Leftovers Challenge, the popular title highlights plus Shopping Queen

Have you counted again lately?

100 stitches so far.

I crocheted a pair of baby shoes today and ended up with
1,880 stitches.
Now all that’s left is to add the ribbons.

I’m going through withdrawal: four—actually, five as of tonight—days without knitting or crocheting a single stitch—but that’s set to change today, if my dizzy head will let me! I was in the hospital for four days: extreme dizziness due to an inflamed auditory nerve (can you believe it?). I didn’t find that funny at all (despite the great care I received!), and I’ll probably still be limited for a few more days! 

Get well soon
