Granny blanket :)

Hello :) today's post is a ta-dah ish kind of post. I've already shared this blanket on Instagram but thought I'd give you a bit more info on it and share it on here too :) 


I started making these grannies squares a month or two back. 



The pile grew and grew. 


They were flying off my hook! 

Here is the final lay out I decided on. Then I had the task of choosing a joining colour. 


I decided on 'mocha', and I love it!! 

 

I guess I should now share a picture of it all spread out, so here it is in all it's blankety granny square glory. 



TA-DAH!!! 


This is all the yarn I had left. Just enough!! I used style craft special dk. Ahhh I love that yarn!!! 
 
I really enjoyed making this blanket and it is now being enjoyed by its lovely owners. I always have a granny square blanket on the go so I have started another one now, I'll try and get round to posting about that soon :)

Granny stripe love.

So, here's a little post about my new project which if you follow me on Instagram you may have seen me
Post about it already. 

Here's the yarn I'm using it's drops merino extra fine and it's super scrummy. These are the colours I have chose. 


What do you think? 



Started with yellows, then greens. I wanted a graduated colour kinda thing? 


Winnie and I enjoyed some outdoor hooky on holiday. These rows just seem to work up so quickly! 


I just had to show you this picture. I love it. And this colour has got to be one of my favourites.  


A final yarn order was needed and now I have enough yarn to complete the blanket. Hopefully! 


And one last picture to show you where I'm up to now. Oh these colours just make me smile!! Love love love!
