i’m figuring, eight more panels of this size make up a half decent blanket. which means in grand total some 444 squares, on the whole just a few more than on this one (which counts 144 hexagons). as i’m doing crochet ‘whilest doing something else’ (like watching a movie, or rather listening to one), i find i’m counting my turns. and my hooks too. like meditating. i find i’m a crochet meditator. does that make sense?
This looks like it will be a lovely blanket. The colors are so rich and autumnal. I think I'm going to have to learn to crochet! So many crocheting bloggers have inspired me!
ReplyDeletei love it. still not understand how your eyelets are forming there, but i love them. i made the sweet pot cake too and delish. thanksxxxxx
ReplyDeletethe X pattern (eyelets, holes, you know)...
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot to meditate in hand work ;)
ReplyDeleteI love crocheting, and never really got into granny squares, but now I'm thinking of starting a blanket for my daughter (she's 3 year old, so not so many squares!) - happy crochet meditating!
ReplyDeletethis is such a beautiful blanket...i love the yarn you're using...i plan to start some baby blankets....i've even bought the yarn...just haven't started yet.
ReplyDeleteReally really ace. I want to learn. I dont know that Id be able to master the 'crochet whilst meditating' thing though! Well done. Peta
ReplyDeleteWow, this is going to be gorgeous! I love the colours you choose (fleamarket finds or not ;-) ) -they're so soothing somehow!
