I’ve just finished this lovely pink and purple baby blanket! The yarn is from Ice Yarns and in a style called Dancing Baby and is 100% acrylic and soft. I love how bright the colours are and how they crochet up. This pattern is corner to corner which gives the great diagonal line effect across the blanket. To finish I did a different border than Continue reading Finished: Pink Baby Blanket
I’d decided to make some blankets to sell at the local craft markets. There isn’t many people selling crochet items here, probably because it’s somewhat tropical. However, the baby blankets i’ve made as gifts have been well received, so I thought I’d give it a go! Continue reading Finished: Baby Blanket
I picked up this yarn at the local craft store and instantly loved how soft it was. It’s an acrylic/nylon blend and feel like a cloud. I could only get 4 balls of this yarn so decided to make a baby blanket. The pattern I used was corner to corner. This allows me to control how much yarn i use as you work it up in diagonal lines.

It’s done! It’s an amazing feeling to see something completed after dying the wool and crocheting it into something. This blanket was an experiment to see how the spiral pattern would look using multicoloured yarn. Some people on Instagram Continue reading Finished: Spiral Blanket 1
Finally finished this awesome blanket. I started way too many other projects and this one got missed for a while. The yarn used is Stylecraft and the colour recipe is here. The pattern is super easy and can be worked on while watching tv as it repeats Continue reading Finished: Retro Rainbow v stitch
After finding this simple pattern for hexagons I just had to try it! I had a whole bunch of different shades of pink to use and went for a girly style blanket.
Each hexagon took about 10 minutes to make. It took a while to figure out how all the hexagons fitted together, but in the end it all Continue reading Finished: Hexagon Blanket 1
After making my nana blanket I was in desperate need for colour! Still on my 12 point ripple making spree I decided to make a blue/green blanket out of my Ice Yarn. I loved how it worked up in the previous blankets and was curious how it would look in only a Continue reading Finished: 12 point ripple 5
