Hello There!!!!

It has been a long time since I posted.  Life has got I the way.  However I feel that now I can have the time for me again.  I have lurked, reading your blogs from time to time and I apologies for not leaving comments.  Sometimes communication is difficult when you are in the thick of life.


I also haven’t had much time for crochet over the last 6 months, but  I managed from time to time snatch a little time to do some crochet mainly some baby stuff and I joined the Block a month group on ravelry.


The squares done so far.  I love this group as it is very friendly and the squares can be a challenge.  I have been doing the extra square also as I find two a month is suits me and I can keep up.  I have another 8 to do, as I started in June and so playing catch up.


The other crochet has been baby items for a friend’s new granddaughter and an new arrival in my family.



I have found the Lisha hat pattern by Linda of Crafty corner a great pattern and have used it a lot.



This lovey blankie was popular and have made three of them for various friends.


Now that I have more time I have started a CAL albeit rather late – Cherry Hearts sampler blanket, I am just finishing part 4 so about half way through.  I am using scraps of yarn and will donate to the Lions annual Christmas collection for families in need.  I am sure some child will love it.  Think I will make some more loveys to donate.  Maybe different animals.


I think that is enough for today!  Except I have to show you a photo of Peggy Sue on a cold winter day!


However, today she is sun bathing in the garden with Ambrose and Lucy as
Spring is well under-way - blue skies gentle breeze and to top it all it is a public holiday!

So  bye for now and see you soon.

  4. Lovely to see you back Zana and you have been busy with all your lovely crochet, I'm glad you like the Lisha baby hat pattern it works up quickly which is good. I have had to pull my SOL blanket back a little because of wobbly edges I didn't keep a count on my stitch count and my tension has been all over the place, I think I'm back on track now though. Have a great week. :) xx
