Patch Work Bag Cute and Easy Crochet

Hello, hello!

I've been wondering for a while what to do for my next project.

Recently I've bought a few books from my amazon wish list one of which being Cute and easy crochet. I enjoyed Nikki Trench's cute and easy crochet with flowers so much I wanted to have this one too!

So the new year project! A patchwork granny square bag I thought.

I made a quick start last night and hope to take my time and enjoy it.

Lots of cheery colours perfect for all these grey days we've been having.

I'm still picking up and putting down my hexagon blanket too, I quite like to have a couple of projects going at once.

Thank you for your lovely comments

and welcome to my new followers.

Lovely to have you here with me.

Crochet Granny Wreath....

Hello to you.....

Last weekend I finished off my granny wreath.

I used a wonderful tutorial by

MemeRose

Such a fabulous idea and simple, with this easy and clear tutorial.

So a big thank you.
 

 Here it is...I really enjoyed making every bit of it.

 I bought the polystyrene wreath from eBay that was the most expensive part........but totally worth it.

 Perfect project for a rainy day.

 I couldn't resist some close ups!
So another massive thank you to MemeRose for sharing this, and inspiring me to have a go.

Finished!

Yay the stripy blanket is now complete!

It's been claimed already by my beautiful adopted kitty.

I think he is a beautiful boy.

He's buried himself under the blanket and settled down for a cosy sleep.

So I finally ran out of yarn....

I think it's perfect kitty size and fits nicely on his favourite sleeping spot protecting the sofa from grey fluffy hairs! when he's not underneath it....

I did take it off him for a while to photograph it outside in the sunshine.

I've left the loose ends on because I liked them! I think they added a little more detail to the blanket.

Rolled up and ready to go back inside for my grey furry friend.

Do you think I'm a bit too soft on him?.......don't answer that, I know I am.

From small beginnings.......

 

 

 

 So after spending a looonnnggg time hooking my daughters single bed size granny blanket http://forgetmenotsblue.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/all-done-hooray-ive-finally-completed.html I thought I would have a break from granny squares but sat in my favourite crocheting chair last night I found myself reverting back to my beloved granny squares. I've gone for a black edging this time to make the blanket colours more suited to my sitting room.

Not sure if I will used them to make a cushion or go for a big project again and make a blanket.

  

I will keep you posted on what these lovely squares will be a part of..........
