I compost here because it is easy, saves on garbage bulk and I have an outside composter to add it to. I don't use it on the garden though which I know a lot of people do. My garden seems to be fine without it and I'm happy with it. :)Patsy Irene (Chillin' with Patsy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17023685247825134744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-12661532176071799892020-04-01T08:24:11.133-06:002020-04-01T08:24:11.133-06:00It has been chilly for a couple of days.

I offered it to him but he didn't want to bring it back and forth. <br />Meatloaf nights are always yummy and successful. :)Patsy Irene (Chillin' with Patsy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17023685247825134744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-28934790665480810872020-04-01T08:22:23.867-06:002020-04-01T08:22:23.867-06:00Thank you Marlene.

We're doing so many things differently than any other year.<br />The rain is nice, some of it, but it would be nice if it alternated with a sunny day! :)<br />You two stay healthy as well.Patsy Irene (Chillin' with Patsy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17023685247825134744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-73980829313085685672020-04-01T08:19:29.014-06:002020-04-01T08:19:29.014-06:00Thanks Peter.

Do the first row will all the stitches, then start decreasing - go back to your original pattern, and if you had say 60 stitches in the back and it was 56 - you'll want to decrease 4 stitches evenly across the next row. Again, I'm assuming the front is fine so you'd crochet around to where you started. You'll have a couple of rows extra but that should but I've found that if you don't have that starting or foundation row it will look, for lack of a better word, funny. Let us know how you make out.<br /><br />Have a good day, take care and stay well!Maebemehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09706540456819503068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-81100697219396621902020-03-31T10:05:08.948-06:002020-03-31T10:05:08.948-06:00finished. ter is a challenge.

I admire your dedication with your crochet project and I'm sure you get the neckline figured out.

Sorting and recycling is always a nice feeling. Like you we compost a great deal, and I'm always amazed at how much we have at the end of a couple of days. <br />I'll take the rain, it's not snow or ice. We know it will warm up eventually, the evidence is all around us but if the white stuff falls we can't see the evidence. Haha. Stay healthy.

Not sure if I can add to the neckline about half way up each side to bring it in. If the instructions didn't have me doubling up to make it angled, it would have been better. LOL<br />The rain can stop anytime.

From now on you can bet that I will be sending a letter. This year we did purchase fuel on the second day we were in Canada and have sent that receipt along. Thanks for the tip, I'll remember to buy something on our c.c. as proof each time. :)Patsy Irene (Chillin' with Patsy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17023685247825134744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-41726385218118151022020-03-31T06:08:38.212-06:002020-03-31T06:08:38.212-06:00Thanks Nancy, I never thought of doing that before...Thanks Nancy, I never thought of doing that before I messed with it last night. I added 3 DC2TG across the back and then a couple at the top corners of the front neck. That helped but it is still too wide for my shoulders. I'll be tearing that out and I'll send a picture.<br />I'm glad you are having pleasant weather at least. Ours is pretty wet and miserable now for a few days.

I have done that in the past. Fortunately this time we planned to be home a little earlier so I changed our end date before we left the US and the refund was processed. I am curious how you prove you were back in Canada when, because of this virus, we all had to return straight home. Normally if I'm going to request a refund we make a purchase on each of our credit cards on the day we cross the border and the insurance company will use that as proof that we were back in Canada.Maxx Trailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17647773287881908085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834649115402990406.post-13410226544248519082020-03-30T18:24:13.080-06:002020-03-30T18:24:13.080-06:00Post a pic of the neck.
