Yarn Along

I had my Simply Crochet magazine delivered this week, a subscription gift from my daughter.  We call it the gift that keeps on giving, as you get a gift every month.  I sat down with a cup of tea and immersed myself in the beautiful images.  I fell in love the moment I saw it, the dreamy lilac baby blanket.  I didn't have the right wool so I had to improvise and adjust the pattern to meet my needs, so far so good.

 

 

 

 

A joy to hook.  What are you creating?  Once again joining the yarn along with Ginny at small things.

Finished Projects

I would like to say drum roll please........and then produce the photo, but alas I am having problems with the camera.  However I have finished several small items, a canvas covered in Cath Kidson wallpaper with felt lettering SHERIFF BERTIE a quite impressive easy make.  Then a very quick project boot cuffs, the pattern is from issue 14 of Simply Crochet again because of the chunky wool a very quick and easy make.  A very impressive sumptuous scarf using a multitude of textured yarns and beaded strands at each end.   Finally a never ending order of storage bags.  January always brings its own problems, mainly bad weather but one thing never seems to change and that is the lack of storage for all the new things given at Christmas.  I will show you all the variations of the bag once the camera is up and running again. 

Finally, although cold we have a little sunshine today, that always makes you feel a whole lot better.
