First ever crochet post...

Ok, so here goes with my first crochet post - bit nervous - for a start who knew how difficult it was to get wool to stay still while you're trying to take a photo of it ?
So, these are the colours that I chose for my blanket 


 For a long time I have been wondering if I would be able to make a blanket like the beautiful ones that Julie makes on Little Woollie. The only way to find out was to have a go ... and I am totally loving it. I keep asking Dave if he is as in love with my blanket as I am - strangely, he isn't ! Anyway, I'm not going to let that put me off  ♥  There's lots of counting and checking that you still have the right number of stitches, but other than that you just kind of make it up as you go along and it is SUCH good fun.


Still a bit of a way to go but it grows very quickly because you ( well, I ) just can't put it down

  2. Well I don't know about Dave but I love, love your blanket!!! The colours are just gorgeous together. You did make me laugh though, I've given up asking my husband if he likes what I'm working on!

  3. I think he's just happy I've found something to do that keeps me quiet for a bit !!
