W.I.P.Wednesday : My CAL project and more.

So today is Wednesday and I have a lot of projects on my needles and hooks as always.
I'm only going to share pictures of two of them.

I'm still working on my Teddy Bear Huggy Blanket which you can read about here .No newer photos though since I have a big and important project going on.

So Stacey from Freshstitches has started a CAL, which involves crocheting Jackie the Cow ,one of her adorable must-make- patterns. Yeah I'm a sucker for her patterns and I'm not ashamed to admit it! haha.
Of course I had to participate.

I'm not quite done choosing my colors, but I've started out with a dark pink for the body :



I'm using a 100 % acrylic for this cow. It's Jette from Hjertegarn.

Besides that. I'm doing a secret knitting project.
And it has a deadline!
Oh yeah. A VERY short deadline I might add.
I REALLY hope I can make it. Haven't been knitting since before Christmas. And I already had to rip out 15 rounds of lace pattern.
Reminder to myself : Remember a safety line!

I'm using 2 types of yarn :
Muskat which is a 100 % mercerised Egyptian Cotton, it has a fairly firm structure when knitted which is needed for some parts of this pattern.

The other  yarn is :
Cotton Viscose , a 54 % Cotton , 46 % Rayon. It has a nice shine ,but is a bit slippery to knit with when not used to it.


A sneak Peek : 






I hope everyone has a great and productive Wednesday.
