Picot Peek

Jennifer asked for a photo of the crochet project I mentioned in my weekend crafting notes post
at the notes blog. I actually happen to have one already, which is
unusual for me. (I still haven’t gotten around to taking a picture of
those uneven curtains you were all demanding to see the other day.)
Jane and I were working out the pattern for these little picot square
table coverings I’m making to hide the scratches on our cheapo end
tables, and I liked the way her color sketch looked next to the
squares. (The squares are as yet untrimmed, unblocked, and unjoined,
obviously.)

This is the Picot Square Tablecloth pattern from Vintage Crochet,
a most delicious book. I’m making two smaller cloths instead of one big
tablecloth. There are pink and cream colored squares, too. I stole the
yarn from another Vintage Crochet project I have in the works:
the ripple stripe blanket. It’s a long-term endeavor. You can see a wee
bit of it creeping into the frame at the top right.

I like these starry squares because they’re so quick and finite.
Thinking in terms of "this square" is much less intimidating than "this
big huge project I’d like to finish sometime this decade."

Rilla inspects to see if it passes muster.

Hmm, I’ll need to see the pink one before I can make a judgment. I like the green one, though. It matches your bag.
