Photo's Of The Year So Far

Just wanted to share the year so far in photo's. This is a collection of photo's that we have all taken.

Part of the local fireworks for Australia Day Celebrations.

A native Hibiscus that is in our garden and is looking lovely this time of year.

Finally got a photo of Charlie on his Ripple Blanket but the effort it took to get him to look my way was time consuming.

Lovely day down at the Old Noarlunga Square for a picnic with family. Hope you enjoy the few random photo's of the year so far.

Charlie's Ripple Blanket

Well I have finally completed Charlie's Ripple Blanket, it's all washed and ready for him. Now if only he would use it so I can get that photo but of course he will not play ball.

The making of this blanket was a real family affair, all of us (except K whose in Canada at the moment) had a turn at picking the colours. I did all the crocheting and I picked the boarder colours. I didn't do the boarder like Lucy, I did my own thing. I did 1 row of trebles, with 2 trebles in the corners and then I did 6 rows of dc, with 2 dc, 2 chain, 2 dc, in the corners. My crochet terms are all English as that is how I learned to do crochet. 

I am just waiting for my Stylecraft yarn to come and then I get to start another Ripple Blanket as hubs wants one as well. He gets to choose the colour sequence and this time around I think I will do Lucy's boarder. I want to give it a go as I like the 2 colour look with the last row. 

I have finished the Granny Stripe cushion but am waiting as the cover has been washed and needs to dry, also I need to get an insert for it. Once that's done I will get a photo up of that as well. Hope your having a great day.
