I am crocheting a blanket. I needed a break from the needle so have picked up the hook again....Of course when I started I was going to make it for Busy's double bed now since it is taking longer than I though it is going to be more of a single bed size.... although at this point it would make a rather nice scarf...
I heard a a few of you mentioning this wool place, at the same time women in this town were going crazy over the very same place. So I ordered, it is lovely wool... and the blanket is going to be so warm - great for the.. ahem...8 weeks a year it is cold here...
The Busy little beast that resides here loved her new bike basket, although the happiness was short lived as she is in danger of looseing it again for naughtiness....when will this phase end....
for more Creative Spaces head on over to Kirstys to see what people with well behaved children are doing...
Lovely colours! The bike basket is fab. Fingers crossed the naughtiness ends soon. We had a phase of that at the beginning of the year. Turned out a bladder infection was the cause. Didn't make me feel terrible at all!
ReplyDeleteWhen I grow up, I want to crochet like you, Cath.
ReplyDeleteAt least you have something to take away now! I worked out that Shakespeare was correct: "The world is a stage" and our children just move from acts to acts. Cherrie
