May CAL squares

Earlier in the year I was way ahead with these Ravelry crochetalong squares, getting them completed within the first week of the month.  Clearly I have been busy, because these two only just squeaked into May, one finished on the 30th and one on the 31st.  Whew!

The first is called Hint of Spring (hmmm , we’re now into full-on Winter).

This square would have been more effective worked in two or more contrasting solids, rather than the Vintage Hues yarn I’m using for my blanket.  However, that wasn’t an option!

The second square for May (also in Vintage Hues) is the Victorian Dream.

I think this is a very pretty square.  It’s certainly lacy, which will make the blanket a little breezier, but should combine beautifully with the other squares I’ve made so far.  I’m really enjoying the crochetalong!
