First Day of Spring

Today is a much better day. I went out to my favorite creek, took in some sunshine and came back feeling motivated.

Yesterday I finished the next section on a past project that uses a crochet along called Around the Bases. In this project I chose a center square called Blizzard Warning! designed by Polly Plum of Every Trick on the Hook. ATB basically lets you choose any center square and then you add 16 borders around it, each border is called an inning. This is the 6th inning:

Well, most of the 5th inning is also in this picture...

I haven't decided how many innings I'm going to use. My big idea for this project is to make one of those cocoon shrugs. So I'm going to keep going until I think this is a Cheri-sized square. But it also needs more snowflakes so that's something that I'll have to figure out.

I do still have a lot of childhood traumas to process through now that I'm not repressing everything, but today I feel like I've made some progress and the pain is not as sharp. Healing is a wild journey.
