I made a small quilt for a friend who left work last week.
I'm sure someone gave me the fabric which I used for this ... Ann?
Last December I made two blankets for my nieces using the Spice of Life pattern.
Both used the same colour yarn but placed differently.
Aubrey decided she wanted a single bed size blanket so I have started the Seaside Ripple.
Its not as wonky as it looks!
I have wanted to challenge myself with crochet, it can get a bit samey, so hows this for a challenge ..Mandala Madness
There are so many different types of stitches, I'm finding the pattern difficult to follow so am relying on the video so I can understand it better.
I just hope no-one ever counts the stitches,
I think I have the right amount and then poof I don't anymore and I have no idea what I've done. However, crochet blankets are quite forgiving.
Very nice quilt! The crocheted blankets and doily are lovely. I used to do quite a bit of crochet, but switched to knitting. Crocheting seemed to irritate my carpel tunnel problem, but knitting is fine if I don't do it too long. Good to see what you are doing these days!
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty little quilt; I'm sure your friend will love it. Your crochet is very nice too. I'd say you've chosen a real challenge in that last project! I don't crochet, but I could never do that! It is very pretty! ---"Love"
