I finally finished my first ever blanket. It was grey and dreary outside on Sunday but I was still out in the garden holding a photo shoot with the dog! (Never work with children or animals: so true.)
Have a great week and speak soon.

*disclaimer: I have only made a giant granny square. The edging went wrong so it's a bit frilly and I'm not very good at darning in the ends. Crochet veterans will not be at all impressed but please humour me!!
I think it looks absolutely wonderful! The colors you used are so happy together. LOVE your new blog design and layout. So fun visiting her today. :-)

It is gorgeous, and who cares about the edge, hehe I have just finished my mums at long last and its a bit wibbly around the edge, but I think that just adds to the uniqueness of it. Your pup is so sweet.

Well done - it feels such an achievement doesn't it. I'm on my second now and its going much faster. I seem to do the initial chain too tight and even if I use a larger hook just for the chain, it pulls a bit. Noone seems to notice though. I am excited because I did my first bit of crochet that involved increasing and decreasing !! Lily. xxx

ReplyDeleteYou've beaten me to it,I'm only half way through mine.
