We went swimming today and are going to Cardiff Castle tomorrow and then a quiet day before she goes :-(
In other news, the blanket is almost finished! I'm working on the border now which may take a few days as I want to try one from the crochet border book. Myf very kindly has done some blanket modelling :-) apologies for the poor photo quality, I couldn't wait till daytime for better picture quality!
I HAD to lay it out after doing the first border round (hdc clusters in dark brown)
A rare photo of me actually crocheting! I'm going with a cream for the second round-Myf suggests going with a shade of blue for the bulk of the border (not sure yet whether I want to stick with the Autumn palette)
I used single crochet to join the squares-I like the ridged effect as well how sturdy it is. Someday, I may use it on the right side of the squares so I get to enjoy that ridged effect as well as all the colours!
Hopefully won't be long now!
Very pretty.

ReplyDeleteThankyou! So close to being able to present it in all its glory :-) xx
DeleteIt's looking beautiful - I love seeing it all coming together! The colours are fantastic and so warming, I think it is going to have a lot of snuggling in it's future :-)
