    About

    I had seen this project posted by a few of the lovely ladies on our community and thought it was just so stunning, a riot of colour so I decided to have a go myself. Now I am a not great with patterns but I found this a really easy pattern to follow and I learned lots of new techniques although not sure that mine has turned out 100% as it should do, my edging did not seem to quite the same in number but hey ho. Really proud of my achievement and maybe a pink version may be in the offing as I have so much in my stash. Have to say I also came late to the CAL so mine was more of a CAMOP (crochet at my own pace!) Of course moggie Alfie had to get in on the act in the photo.

        I know most of my stuff is pretty simple but I found the pattern really easy to follow although I am sure there are a few mistakes here and there sometimes we can surprize ourselves with what we can do when we try :)

      This is amazing, the colours are fabulous, not sure if I would have the patience or expertise to do this!

        I thought the carousel blanket was way beyond me but the instructions were very clear and it went along very well
