Bloomin' Crochet-A-Long Week 9

 

This week I have been working on a few squares for my blanket. I am still really, really enjoying making this blanket particularly as I can pick it up in between other projects and just crochet the odd square here and there...

 

 

I am still busy making presents and the little crochet flowers above are embellishments for a knitted gift...

 

Last night I decided to start making a little crochet bag for my niece. I am kind of just making it up as I go along, so we shall see how that one turns out!

 

This week, Chrissie has shared a gorgeous little Christmas tree pattern here! These are so sweet and I predict that when my Miss M is tucked up in bed this evening, all other projects will be abandoned in favour of making several of these...

 

Lovely crochet here...

    I love your buttons, they're so cute. The flowers are very pretty. I love crocheting flowers. When I first started, I always ended up with an extra petal, but I never understood why? I'm doing them right these days but an extra petal wasn't such a bad thing. :)

    All your crochet is looking so nice! I have a book for knitting flowers, but haven't tried even one yet! Maybe over the Christmas holidays I'll have time just to do things for fun! Wendy x

    Your blanket is going to be lovely if the top square on your pile is anything to go by. I've just finished some knitting and I'm going to have a go at a crochet washcloth - wish me luck!

    No matter what crochet pattern catches my eye and makes me Coo and Ah, I still think a Granny Square is the best and yours looks wonderful.
