Hello

Thank you for looking at my blog. My latest passion is applique which I have been doing since 2015. I love making things and learning new crafts On this blog you will see some of the things I have been working on. You will also see wonderful items created by other people. When I am not crafting I enjoy being with family and friends, singing and family history. My favourite place in the whole world is anywhere by the sea and I have to get my fix every few weeks. My favourite colour is PURPLE but I love turquoise too!

Texture and more texture

I knitted a textured throw from a KAL pattern in Simply Knitting in 2019. There were 28 bands of stitches with 12 rows in each. The individual rows were not difficult but they were nearly all different. I lost concentration through too much sea and mountain gazing so there was a lot of ripping out. my favourite stitch was raisin stitch. A few rows would make a lovley border round the edges of a plain baby cardigan.
 
The finished throw looked good and the plan is to give it to my sister as a lap blanket. There is a slight hitch because my suitcase with the throw has gone missing so fingers crossed it returns from its travels soon.
