I finished the bag I was making last night. I've had this on the go for quite a few weeks now...I had made all the squares and then abandoned it for...yes you guessed it...another blanket!
Anyway I decided that this week I was going to finish it and I'm actually so pleased that I did as I love it. The pattern is from issue 26 of Simply Crochet. It's a nice pattern and the squares would also make a pretty blanket or cushion I think. I used Stylecraft Life DK in melon, mint and cream...I love these colours together! Actually I love lots of the colours that this yarn is available in although I have a particular soft spot for the mint at the moment.
We have been away on holiday and had such a great time...I will hopefully share a few holiday snaps soon. I started another blanket when I was away and will share more on that soon too.
Wishing you all a lovely day!

ReplyDeleteThat bag is AMAZING! What a great colour choice. You have spurred me on to finish a bag I have been working on using African flower motifs. It's the lining that gets me. So bad at sewing.
