I found this pic on Pinterest a few weeks ago and thought how lovely it was
I did buy Christmas colour yarn before lockdown in preparation for the perfect project
And I decided that this was it
Even though hour Christmas is during our summer I thought it would look nice on a back of the couch
Here is the start of it
The squares are not very big as I didn’t want to run out in the middle of the project
If the pattern doesn’t make a big enough blanket I can put a decent boarder at the end
I actually love just this bit. I’ve decided that once the stores open I’ll buy more yarn and make a Christmas blanket
Made up with bigger squares with just this pattern
But that’s for another day
Hubby has filled my wicking beds and they are now ready to be planted up
We have had a few frosty morning so I’ll wait a little longer and then plant them out
Still don’t have a date for coming out of lockdown
It’s definitely wearing thin now we are all just sick and tired of it
Hopefully as the numbers of vaccinated people go up we will be released
To live our lives again
In the meantime
Stay safe and well
See ya
That xmas rug is going to be fabulous - we are still marvelling at how fast you produce stuff. That garden is going to look so good. Tigger says it needs rhubarb with great big shade-providing leaves for cats and small dogs to nap under in summer. (And F says it makes great jam with strawberries, or with ginger)
ReplyDeleteI’ve never grown rhubarb. I might just give it a go. Thanks for the idea
DeleteI am so looking forward to our first frost. Menopause and hot weather are not good friends, let me tell you!!
