Productive day

Finished the charity blanket I think it turned out well. It's very very warm lol 
I practice a new gaining technique and I'm very happy with how it looks so I'll be using it more I think 
I've started to join the squares for my own blanket, using the same technique. It's called the flat braid join. A little fiddley to begin but once you get going its not too bad 
A bit of a glimpse of how it's going to look 
And I made a pattern for a gift I have in mind. I hope it works 
So what have you been up to? It's been very warm here so working with the huge blanket was a chore but I really wanted to get it done 
See ya xxx

  1. The top one looks warm and cuddly, the one in progress has the look of a quilt and will be quite impressive. How can you work with yarn in the heat?

    Sharon I sit with the air conditioning on and if I still get too hot I have the fan lol

  3. The rug you've made for charity looks wonderful Angela...the eventual recipient will love it! And the second blanket that you're working on is looking great...the colour placement suggests a lovely over all design when all the squares are joined.

  4. Loving your crocheting - the one your making for yourself reminds me of log cabin quilting squares.
