I've been crocheting!!!!


Hello there, How is everyone today?? I have had a lovely day filled with crochet and my wee boys!! It was a little warmer today, so the boys were able to get out in the garden for a while.... So good to get a bit of fresh air in them, tires them out!

Finn gave my my first dafidill of the year!

Me and Frazer were out for a cheeky coffee and muffin at Starbucks.... I think he enjoyed his muffin!!!

Now for my crochet huh!!!!!

I have been working on this Hexagon blanket FOREVER!! But i'm in it for the long game.

This is a Circle scarf I made up over the winter.... I love it and the drape is just lush it's made with Yarn craft it's a nightmare, but well worth the work!!!

Now this is a work in progress,It is a textured Ruffle on a 1.25 hook I love it reckon it could vintage up any top!! I found it in Crocheted Edging & TRIMS Susan Smith. This book is a gem I love it!!

So how was you day today.... I have been out and about, I managed to get some aran wool in Frazer's fave colour GREEN.... And for only £3.50! I plan on making him some crochet boots. There is so many patterns out there, but I'm toying with the idea of trying to make up my own pattern, Then maybe I can sell them. They make good slippers for wooden floors. I'm sure they would sell.

I also bought stupidly high boots today, And have been "braking them in" all day! I shall have to show you them later on. I have no photos of todays escipades but will get them up tomorrow!

Did you see may Ravelry post on the Crochet Along?? Anyways the vote has been going on I'm hoping the sidewalk shall gets through! I really want to give it a bash!!

Finn has been playing with the camera again.... Thought I'd post a headless me!!! I have got used to him running around with the camera now... As Cal said the other day, it's amazing the angles the boys get.

Well i'm away off to get some more washing done, and most likely some crochet blanket too!!! I'm still working on Attic24 Hexagaon how to, Once again I shall have photos up tomorrow!!!

Smiles a million :)

Just a quicky today as I want to get on top of my chores..... And maybe even get a little sewing in before the end of the day!!

Me and the boys went to the park for half and hour before we headed for a bath then bed..... I can't help but have a MASSIVE smile when I see all three of these photos, I am of course going to say this they are my boys but..... The smiles could make even the most grumpy person smile!!!

Have a good day.
I hope your day is full of brilliant smiles too.
