Anyway, I'm still working slowly on the rocket afghan. Here is where I am on it currently. The rest will be the colored yo-yos and more black squares surrounding the completed area. Yes, there are a ton of tails that will need to be woven in. I have tried to do all the center tails on each square to at least reduce them somewhat.
I'm pleased with how it's coming along. The yo-yos will make quite a difference I think, but still many black squares to make before it's ready for that.
As to any other crochet news, if I find anything of interest I generally post it to the Facebook page. The last thing I posted there was the video I added to my YouTube channel regarding filet crochet. It's not a new video but one I made some time ago and which was requested by a visitor. A Fleur de lis chart filet pattern has been added to Crochet Cabana as well (under Kate Smith).
I have also started using the old Crafty Corral to post about my coloring adventures. If you are interested in that, the link is http://craftycorral.blogspot.com/
I hope all of you have a very Merry Christmas, or whatever holiday you celebrate during this time. Be safe if you travel the roads - don't drink and drive. Set your patience level to high and enjoy the wonderful companionship of family and friends. It's a stressful time of year for many, so do remember those who are alone or infirm if you are able.
Happy crocheting!
