another granny square blanket

Whilst I wait for seedlings to emerge (4 varieties of tomato plants sown last weekend) I am still busy making granny squares for my own blanket. I actually like the fact the weather has changed and is back to April showers so that I can sit in front of the tv and add more squares. Last night I managed to add a few more and I've now joined 82, not many more to go but still some to crochet, sew in the ends before joining. I guess I will have it finished this month. Another WIP complete, great stuff. Did you know you can also follow me on Pinterest and Instagram Almond blossom in my garden Last Friday we had a trip to London (Covent Garden) and then onto the O2 to see Rick Astley, hightlight of our year as it was the third concert. Loved his new song Keep on Singing and he played some new tracks from his album 50 released in June and some of his classic 80s. Danced and danced and sang out of tune, had the best fun ever! love these tiles in the tube station I still have

Granny Blanket tadah

I can now show you the gifted blanket. I have to say I am very happy with how it turned out. I have hundreds of photos of my progress over the last 7 weeks. I've enjoyed every single moment making it, even sewing in the ends! Here are some of the photos, not too many crochet porn! The sun is shining here in Kent and gardening planned for Sunday, lots of new plants to plant out thanks to my sister dropping off lots of plants she has grown for me. I'll post some pictures over the weekend. two blankets on the go quiet crochet time and a cuppa lots of circles to start of my granny squares round 3 tadah and its finished with a picot edge I taught myself crochet pom poms at lunchtime today
