#that’s in a tonal light grey / off white / eggshell / blush sand sort of variegation

[punk-pins]

taking a break from my big crochet project to make a blanket for a cousin’s baby blessing and it’s working up sooooo fast I forgot how QUICKLY crochet works up when you’re not doing planned pooling

#it’s very simple just half double crochet through the back 2 loops for the alternating extra stitch stripe #with a self striping yarn yellow -> pink -> indigo blue -> power blue -> repeat #and in the middle of the yellow I’m breaking for a short little lace insert of double crochet 2 chain 1 for little squares #that’s in a tonal light grey / off white / eggshell / blush sand sort of variegation #i like a variegated off-white for baby pieces bc it offers a softer contrast to baby pastels than a Bright White #and it also handles stains wayyy better #if you’re making a baby piece with True White and it isn’t a BLEACHABLE fiber fr what is wrong with you #baby WILL stain it you are not winning. #anyway this is a low effort project bc I talk to this cousin once every MAYBE two years at a family function
