Happy October everyone! Can’t you believe it? It’s my all-time favorite time of year. I grew up in a Inter-Mountain State so I’m used to the leaves changing, maybe a bit of coolness to the air, and the bombardment of Halloween decorations. It just makes me all so happy. Which is why I bring to you the 10th square, the 8″ Tapestry Coffee Mug Afghan Square.

It’s also my birthday month, which always made me feel really close to October. It just gets me, ya know? Unfortunately it’s going to be a crummy birthday, I am sick today and quite crabby about it. Being sick sucks, all I want to do it lay in bed and crochet but I can’t because I’ve got work to do. :/
So… you might have noticed that this isn’t the second week of October but there’s a new #2018TSAP square. Next week I’m going to be taking part in a fun Blog Hop and so I decided to move up the square post to accommodate the date for the blog hop. I didn’t want to have too much working going on next week, so I just have one post instead of one on Monday and on Tuesday (that would have been too much work for me and I might have been crazy to attempt to get all those patterns ready for one week). Instead, you’re getting this post today.

I can’t believe it’s been 10 squares already! Can you? I have had so much fun that I’m already thinking of another CAL for next year, maybe something more geographic in tapestry squares. What do you think? I hope you’ve been having as much fun as I have with this year long project. Let me know what you think in the comments!


What I’m listening to: Fake Geek Girls (one of my favorite podcasts ever) and Season of the B (their Supreme Court episode is so good)

What I’m reading: just started Capital and Loretta Lynn: Coal Miner’s Daughter (b-day present from my mom)
