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.

Hooking in the Sun

 
Hello to you...
I have a confession to make I've still not finished my stripy blanket. My problem is I keep changing my mind as to what size to have. I think I will keep going until my yarn runs out, then I don't have to make a decision hehe. 
 
I think the colours are blending well.
I like the loose ends I'm tempted to leave them ....

I actually got to sit outside and play hooky yesterday the sun was shiny and I thought why not.

I'm thinking by mid week next week I should be finished.
 
Now for my bargain of the week....
50p from my local charity shop I'm really pleased with them.

There a good size, quite small so perfect for a quick cuppa. I love the folksy design and colours.
My daughter and I had fun making peg dolls today. Her dolly was so cute and creative it even had a parasol.
Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend.
