Making my own Marble yarn, mixing two strands of dk, 6mm hook to create my version of a Marble Chunky yarn for the next Poncho....loving it so far but now i don't know whether to make a blanket with it instead of a Poncho?
The cushion goes well in the Christmas kitchen, pattern from my book 2 Granny Squares and Shapes
Lots of reds, pinky/red, orangey/reds, soft reds, dark reds into two groups and mixing them up, few rows of this and few rows of that changing them mid row or at the end of a row...6mm hook. Working for me so far.
Blue version of my Poncho pattern with my Big Beastie blanket
SNOW RECORD,
just incase i forget it arrived in a weekend just before Christmas 2017
Christmas decorations up wasn't much else we could do this weekend, stay in and stay warm
with this You Tube 'real fire' on the TV, very effective crackles as well
my car, cleared off once this is the second falling
About 14" in total but the sun is out today and I'm not sure it will last much long.....pity

No snowman yet😂😂😂
ReplyDeletelol no snowman here xx
DeleteI think it would make a great blanket! The colors are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteHi still trying to decide thanks xx
DeleteEither but I would love a poncho in those colours - it would put a smile on my face every time I put it on! So lovely, bright & warm. I don't know about you but I find all the dark wintery colours so dreary.
ReplyDeletethanks its well under way xx
Deletewhere can I get the pattern for the poncho it looks great
ReplyDeleteHi Maureen, its the December pattern for my subscription pattern club xx
DeleteLove that 2 colour crochet, the poncho looks great in the greys. I shall investigate size by trying 2 stands together over a set number of stitches and have a go!
ReplyDeletehave fun and thanks xx
DeleteYour subscription pattern club, I 'd love to join this in 2018..
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, all details will be posted on my blog later in the year thanks xxxx
DeleteHi Chris, yes have a go depends on your own tension for exact size and the details for 2018 pattern club will be posted in all groups xxx
ReplyDeleteMy goodness! Your tree, the snow, bright cheery crochet... What more can one hope for when accessing a personal blog?!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely blessing! Regarding the poncho/blanket option for your self-made marbled yarn... BLANKET! I was recently DYING to make a V-Stitch blanket, but I just get confused and exhausted trying to figure out the colorwork part of late... The colors you are using are PERFECT!
Thank you for sharing and teaching!

ReplyDeleteHi thanks I'm sure my admin on the group will have added you already but i will go check now thanks forbidding the book, i've been chuffed to bits with both books as they have both been award winners thanks xxx
DeleteI'm always in awe of people who can put colours together and they just gel. Whilst I am a good crafter that skill eludes me.
ReplyDeleteHi Louise, colour has been a life time of study and i can happily say I'm still learning. Not everyone realises how important colour is in your life enjoy xxx
