quick bit of crochet....


I thought I'd just add a quick crochet update.  


 This is what I am up to with my big blanket, it is slow going, each row is very long!  
I've added a few more rows, some cluster rows and a bobble row.


Pattern notes and tutorial next post!


Have a great day!

  5. I love all the new rows and designs! Love the ripple rows in red and the bobble rows. How do you made the bobbles a different color than the rest of the rows? I need to learn that one to add to mine. I've given you several links lately for the crochet-along. I'm enjoying it so much!

  13. It's looking beautiful - you are a very creative lady - do you just make it up as you go or do you plan it in advance? Judy.

    1. Hi Judith, Thanks for the lovely comment, I am kind of making it up as I go along, although I did do a bit of a rough pattern design on paper, but that is changing quite a lot as I go. Julie :)

  17. Hi there! I was so excited to see your updated blanket post! I just keep adding to mine at random until your next post comes. How many colors are you using? I'm currently using up stash yarn, but I'm having so much fun I'm thinking of actually 'planning' some colors for another one. Thanks for getting me hooked!
