Good day, ladies and gentlemen! Once again, a big thank you to all the guessers who have joined me for the last two weeks. It sure has been fun working on the projects because of you guys. We are now on Week 3! Yipee!!!
For the first week, the project started with a square. The second week, we used a triangle to begin the swimwear top. For this week, our project starts with another shape. It's a lot more simple but it's a big bigger than my previous Guess the WIP projects.
This week, we will be working with a circle! And I assure you, this was all just a big coincidence. Although the first two projects were requested by my daughter, this one is a commissioned work. I hope my client likes it when she finally has it. :)
For this project, I'll be using khakhi brown colored 8 ply polyester yarn. It could have been black but I remembered having a hard time working on those black on black earsavers ordered by a friend of mine a couple of weeks ago. Man, that was quite a challenge! Now I know why crocheters charge higher if it's for a black yarn.
I'll be using the 3.5mm crochet hook from my easy grip set. The one with the plastic handles. This has become my favorite set because 1, my full metal set was borrowed by my crochet student and has not yet been returned (most likely because of the quarantine) and 2, because I have a tight grip and metal hooks tend to give my fingers some hook marks at the end of a very long time of crocheting.
This project will once again consist of DCs. The only variation would be that there are dc inc's (increase) on each rounds. When working with a circle pattern, you need to make sure there are enough increases on each round so your work will lay flat. For this project, I want it to lay flat when finished. There should be just enough inc's, not too much so it won't create a wavy or ruffled finish.
Bonus clue:
There will be a bunch of pompoms on the edge of this project. I'm not following a pattern, the client just gave me a photo from pinterest and I'm playing it by ear. I hope my version looks as good as the photo.
Once again, the winners will win 1 hive each. Everyone who joins will share all the liquid rewards of this post. So feel free to upvote and share this post to gain more visibility.

An area rug/floor mat?
Those are usually round. Will it be this project? We'll see. Stick around for the reveal. I hope I can finish it this week. I've been having terrible headaches lately. :(
I love your yarn. It looks so soft! Is it soft? I am guessing it is a bag.
I dislike working with black too. Can hardly see the stitches and my eyes just goes bonkus. Haha.
I love it too. Yes it's soft. The say there should be a bright light when working with black yarns. That works sometimes but my eyes strain a lot after.
Thank you for joining the contest. I'm just a few inches away from completing it. :)
its for a round table momshie
Tumama k na kaya this time mamsh? Haha. We'll see next week. Hehehe
Looks interesting. Probably some sort of mat for a coffee table. :) good morning.
Hmm. Pang pinterest material nga ang mga ganyan noh? Gagawan ko nga to ng for sale na pattern. Hahaha. Salamat sa pagsali. :)
Pwede. :) How much do you sell it for?
I haven't really tried yet. Usually it depends on the level of difficulty. Di ko lang sure itong project na to kung magkano ang pattern nito. :)
Ah, depende pala sa pattern. Hope you make it into a business too. Sayang naman ang talent. :)
Yiieee. To naman, nambola pa. hahaha. Pero I have a teeny weeny tiny little small business na ngayon. Sobrang maliit pa lang talaga at kokonti pa lang din ang clients na nagpapagawa. Baka may gusto ka rin ipagawa, PM is the key. hahaha
Hindi naman, mahirap kasi talaga. Sinubukan ko kasi mag crossstitch noon, 20 years na di pa natapos. Excited pa naman ako makagawa ng tiger at ilagay sa room ko. Hahaha...
My guess is rag. Maybe..😁😁😁
Pwedeeeee. Pero tingnn natin kung tatama na this time. Haha
pwede sya plate mat for dining table
Uy, pwede rin to. Why not? Pero we will know kung tumama ang hula ng kapalaran. Haha
Hmmmmm! I'll go for a vase mat.
Thank you for joining again. :) Let's find out next week kung tama ang hula mo. Hehe
You're most welcome. Sana nga po. hehe
