Here's a bit of progress on my Rose of Avalon blan

Here's a bit of progress on my Rose of Avalon blanket with one of the big squares made and one of the main ones started. I think this might be quite a bright blanket and I love how saturated the colours are on this yarn 😍 The pattern is by Helen Shrimpton and I'm using Scheepjes Colour Crafter. It's nice to have a blanket with different sized pieces to fit together, but let's just hope my tension stays the same 😂😜 Hope everyone started their week well!

It's time to join up the first row of motifs 🌈

It's time to join up the first row of motifs 🌈 I've really enjoyed making these and I'm getting the hang of them, so I just need to check the colour placement. I'm not going to say that there's not an extra stitch here or there, but I don't think they will be too noticeable 😉 I've also done a bit of shopping today as I don't have any stitching with me. I didn't know that I'd be up here for this long and the way things are looking, I'll be here for a bit longer yet, and I miss stitching 💙

We have a start! Here's the first 4 motifs of my #resilienceinbloom throw 😄 there's another 3 flowers and 2 butterflies to go for the first row and how cute are those butterflies! I'm going to be good and sew in my ends as I go, as if I fall behind with that, it's going to be a tangled mess! I think I will join one row at a time too, but let's see! These are quite quick to make, and once you have the repeats down, they are quite easy to memorise too 💜 I love the colours already and I'm excited to see this grow into a rainbow 🌈 Happy Friday my lovely phone friends 💙

I'm living the #buyitstartit hashtag as much as I can 😜🎉 Today's delivery is to start the amazing #resilienceinbloom by the super talented Emily over at @theloopystitch 😍 If you haven't seen this, then go have a look, but sorry, you will need to make it too 😉 I don't think there's anything more I need to say 😄💜

My Tuinn Bheaga shawl is growing! I have another 1

My Tuinn Bheaga shawl is growing! I have another 15 repeats to go, so I think this will be a lovely, warm wrap and I've decided that I'm going to give this to my mum when it's ready. She saw the yarn and thought it was perfect (it's from @lottieknits so of course it's perfect 😄) so how could I not let her have it? This was one of my #fastenoff2020 projects, which was never going to be done by the end of last month, because, well, this is me 😜 The cables are reversible and there's plenty of garter stitch too. The pattern is by @lizcorke.knits if you'd like to cast this on too 💙

Hi again everyone! I've made a start on my new pro

Hi again everyone! I've made a start on my new project and these are the three smaller square patterns for the Rose of Avalon by Helen Shrimpton 💙 I'm using Scheepjes Colour Crafter and I think this will be quite a bright blanket! The colours together give me a retro 80s feel so it will be interesting to see how the bigger squares look. I'm impressed with the yarn too, it's nice and soft and the colours are really vibrant 😍

Start as you mean to go on 😂 My first yarn deli

Start as you mean to go on 😂 My first yarn delivery of 2021, thank you @woolwarehouse 💙 I am not making any resolutions this year, because surviving 2020 was enough. If anything, I'm buying more yarn and having more wips. I was speaking to my lovely friend Sue over at @byhookandstix and she came up with the perfect hashtag for this year - #buyitstartit 😄 So, happy New Year everyone, and if there's a project or yarn you've been wanting to treat yourself to, then jump on the bandwagon! I'm off to start a blanket, I'll share my progress with you later. Unless you follow me on Twitter, then you might know already 😉💙

It's another crochet evening here and I've just jo

It's another crochet evening here and I've just joined the second skein of this beautifully dark green Kettle Yarn 💚 I'm currently decreasing to taper the shawl off at the far side. Once that's done, the final panel will mirror the top and it'll be ready to wear. I'm so excited for that as this yarn is so soft 😍 If you missed my last post, the pattern is called Lunula and is by the lovely @aoibheni The yarn is by Kettle Yarn and is the Islington base. The shade is Nori.

We've had to batten down the hatches this evening

We've had to batten down the hatches this evening as Storm Bella is picking up the wind here, but yarn and a couple more mince pies are helping pass the evening 😉 I'm working on one of my #fastenoff2020 projects, Aoibhe's Lunula shawl using Kettle Yarn Islington in Nori and it's growing! I've also been binge watching Santa Clarita Diet on Netflix, which has kept me very amused. I hope you have all enjoyed your Boxing Days and have a fab TV project too 🎄💙
