Hi all,
For a few weeks I've been knitting a blanket for my DP and I'd love to see what other people are knitting/crocheting at the moment!

Here's the latest picture of my blanket Smile

Thank-you. Gaining inspiration from this thread I must have a go at a chevron pattern- love the baby blanket.

Dutchoma · 21/06/2016 08:29

Amazing work Callme. I wouldn't know what to do next, Woolly Hugs is always a possibility as they are always on the look out for blankets and teddies and other things.

Mookbark · 21/06/2016 21:16

Callme that is beautiful.
HerRoyal I am very impressed with anyone who can do garments, can't wait to see your progress.

I went to a new (to me) knitting/ crochet group tonight. They were really friendly and it was lovely to spend time with others crafters. They sounded as if they really liked my work, rather than DHs well trained "yes, that's lovely, dear" Grin Either that, or they are better liars!

HerRoyalFattyness · 21/06/2016 21:34

mook this is my first attempt at a Cardigan so I've no idea how it will turn out. Grin but I've manage a hat and mittens so I am slowly moving on from scarves Grin

Hello ☺️

I've just started a thread in the pictures board but have now found this thread!

I'm a knitter and a crocheted. Have been doing both a few years now. My most recent finished item is this flamingo I made for my niece's first birthday at the weekend.

Love seeing everyone's projects!

I'm on the cosy stripe too (single) as a break from the sodding coastal ripple which I decided to make king size. It has stolen my will to crochet, so had to put it to one side. It is taking forever! So, happy times with the cosy and some beautiful colours.

I also have my eye on the Frida CAL which is stunning.

That flamingo is ace!!! Thank for posting it.
Well done. I'll post photo of my blanket at the weekend. It's about 1/4 done so far.

Arcadia that blanket came out lovely I am currently working on a six by six baby blanket I've made 30 squares so far and want to keep the border simple

I finished this one, it's knitted with a crochet border and showed it to my soon to be daughter in law (it's for my first grandchild due soon). She said that's nice and gave it back to me Confused but I thought it was nice

That blanket is really lovely Lighteninggirll, I sorry she gave it back to you. She needs her head read. Where did you get the pattern from?

Patterkiller · 11/07/2016 22:45

I spent Saturday at a crochet for beginners workshop and made these. I'm loving it. Off to buy yarn and look for patterns.

Tutu I think it was a stitch idea from Pinterest and same for the border I'd like to make another one and can't find it now Confused .
Patterkiller I go to a crochet group it's made a huge difference as a group we are making Christmas wreaths

SoupDragon · 14/07/2016 14:07

I finally finished a wrap I was making.

I have yet to decide what I'm going to do with it as I'm not sure when I would ever use it!

Lightningirll, the blanket is lovely - did she maybe think you were just showing her rather than giving it as a gift?

Lighteningirll · 14/07/2016 20:43

I hope that's why she gave it back to me, confusion not malice Grin

DesertIslandPenguin · 17/07/2016 12:27

That wrap is gorgeous, SoupDragon!!

I just finished making a bunch of squares for Woolly Hugswhich I've forgotten to take pics of, so looking forward to seeing theirsand I'm a bit crocheted out. Thinking of trying some embroidery to fill my crafty void...

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 18/07/2016 10:39

Here's my rainbow ripple blanket - in progress. It's too hot to crochet atm so it's put away until cooler autumn days arrive Smile

PurpleFrog · 18/07/2016 14:57

I love the colours Zing! Is that Stylecraft Special DK?

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 23/07/2016 20:16

Purple

I'm using chunky wool and 10mm hook for this.
Mainly Stylecraft Special but they didn't have all the shades I wanted in the chunky range, so I added some King Cole and Sirdar Hayfield colurs.
40 -42 colours in total, haven't decided on last few colours.
When it's done I'll be happy to share the exact details, if you want.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 23/07/2016 20:34

Oh and thank you!

Here's a twilight photo of the rest of the wool.
3 colours at the bottom are slightly separated - they are the rascals, I'm not sure about the order they should be in!
(This is the most likely version)
