For some reason, this has been my week to stop procrastinating and start getting things done. It’s been a strangely good feeling to get moving! So today, it was time to get back into my National Park Centennial Celebrations afghan. (Ravelry link)
First I wanted to take stock of what I had already done. As it turned out, not a lot.

4 squares out of 60. And actually, the white and blue one needs a hiker duplicate stitched on it. Plus they all need to be blocked and crocheted around So call it 3.5 out of 60. OK – only 54.5 left to do! That translates into this many pages of pattern

And this much yarn

It’s fine. It’s totally fine.
You can do it!

It’s totally fine. Just work on it when you feel like it and it will eventually get done. I used to have that JoAnn bag, and now I’m wondering who I gave it to.

That is true π It just looks daunting considered as a whole thing. But bit by bit it will get done! JoAnn’s has cute bags π

There may be a lot still to do, but sometimes seeing it all in one spot can help. I hope you enjoy working on it! It’s going to be a great afghan.

I think it will be fun if I can get myself to take it slow and not worry about it taking a while.

Yeah, that’s probably the best idea! Focus on each square. It’s really cool how they’re all so different!

They are! There were a bunch of different designers working on the different squares. It is interesting for sure π

Oh, I didn’t realize the different squares had different designers. That makes it even cooler!

Yes! It was designed by a group that put it together – I think many of them designed one or more squares. Even cooler – they are donating the proceeds to the National Parks!
