For years I have tried to get a grip on crochet. I can do stitches no problem, then when it comes to putting them together in some fashion it just makes no sense to me. While we were in Great Yarmouth we found Woolcraft cakes in a craft shop, 200g of aran weight yarn. Decided to buy 2 and try again. already had a crochet hook in my project bag I have for my knitting etc.
I have had this idea I wanted to do a corner to corner blanket/throw for the sofa. Someone suggested looking up Bella Coco on YouTube and it all made sense for once, I have watched this before though, so I spent a few hours getting this far while watching Netflix.
And it kept going pretty well. This colour scheme isn't my usual kind of taste but the colours made me think of summer holidays so went with it.
After I got home I realised that the 2 balls alone were not going to make this big enough so ordered another 2 balls. Where I am now is one more row short of starting to decrease so halfway.
I laid my work down to take a photo so of course I caught a cats attention. I wonder if Bobbie thinks this is for her?
I tried to move her but i just got meowed at. So here you have a 14 month old kitty for size reference. It's not perfect by any means but I am loving the process and how it looks.
For now I will keep at this while I watch Netflix and will share again when I am finished.
Take care
Jules
