Starting A New Crochet Blanket

Hello everyone.


It's D here this week, standing in for Mum. Thank you all for your kind wishes last week when I was feeling unwell. Unfortunately, although I'm better, those pesky germ bugs are currently visiting Mum.


Earlier in the week, she found time to take some photos in the garden, and I thought you would like to see them.




As many of you know, Mum was working on one of her 'big' projects last year with the wedding cross stitch for my brother and sister-in-law. Her new project involves yarn, of which she already has a lot. She is going to make a new blanket using a pattern
 
from Lucy. I know she will enjoy working on this pattern and can take her time with it. Here are a few of the first rows of crochet. 


I hope you all have a good week.

    1. Thank you, Jan. I do feel much better now and I'm sure it won't be long before Mum is fighting fit again. It is lovely to see a bit of colour in the garden, and I'm sure that Mum's new blanket will be a riot of colour, too. Have a good week. D x

    1. I think the bulbs are daffodils and tulips, but I am still a novice gardner myself. I look forward to seeing the colours when they bloom. I'll pass on your best wishes to Mum. D x

  4. Very generous of you to share your germs, D! 😀 I hope your mother soon feels better. It's lovely to see signs of spring in the garden, particularly on a dull, grey day.

    1. I always like to share with Mum! :-) Although maybe not these germs. We all need a bit of colour on a cold drizzly January afternoon. Have a good week. D x
