Sometimes you just need to let something go.....

I started a crochet mystery back in 2015. I learned a few tricks and got a little better with some crochet stitches. It was my first try at a granny square and it was pretty easy and mine actually turned out well! I did not like the size (too small) or where the project was going so stopped at step 4. And there it sits with a couple blocks at step 5 which was adding that cream middle part.

I could take apart the steps I don't like and do something with them, since it is based on a granny square.... or..... I could dump them into the waste basket and call it done. I think I will do that.... they are now in the trash and I have the remaining yarn to do something with. I feel better already!

I am debating on creating a continuous granny square in the colors of yarn I have - light blue, dark blue, grey and cream  - which I think will make a throw in colors I enjoy. I was looking at other patterns last night... this circular sunburst granny square caught my eye as well. Decisions, decisions. I could do knitting and do that ripple stitch pattern you taught me Mom. I still have your index card with the hand written pattern hanging around in my knitting bag. I have time to figure it out.... as this will be a travel project in a few weeks.

I had started a center part in cream a few months ago.... I think I'll pull it out and play with a different size crochet hook in a different color.  We will see where this one ends up......
