corner view ≈ blankie

beth happens to chose a corner view theme that has had me literally hooked. the "reds and pinks" has turned itself nicely into a fully grown and daily used couch blanket. {UPDATE THOUGH.... this is a blanket post...} ☻

the "green waves" happened after crocheting a baby blanket for tera. i couldn't stop the addictive pattern. 

an oldie, i call it my "mock tudor rose". i hooked this one up as i sat through many seasons of the tudors.

this one i've been talking about recently. slight drawback : i air counted 444 squares, of which just 387 seem to be sitting inside the box. having measured three length rows to the bed, i've discovered i'll need at least double the amount of squares. ☻


and in case you wonder : i crochet to calm myself down. i've been called a compulsive neurotic but i'm pleased to say i feel for this winter nighttime necessity. jane's corner view, francesca's hosting, beth's theme.

  1. i love your colorful blankets, and the wavy green one you made for Tera's girl is beautiful.
    you still need 387 squares?? maybe, if you aren't in a very neurotic phase (smile!), and don't need that much crochet therapy, you could enlist the help from your readers, to crochet a few squares for you! (i would join in)

  10. Gorgeous blankies! I am trying to learn. I meet with a group of crocheters once a week (and have been for over a year) and I still can't crochet! Of course, if I talked less and worked more at the meetings, perhaps I would progress :-)

  15. Yarn, colorful yarn use of all kinds thrills me lately. Yours is the gift that keeps on giving. Makes all who spot the blankie happy! Seriously, we always get asked, where or who did that! xoxoxoxox
