    Wow they all look amazing! I am still plodding away on my little squares, they look more knitted than crocheted but I am enjoying it anyway! Over the winter I am going to have a go at making something a bit more challenging!

    They are beautiful Ami, my winter project is learning to crochet.

    You must learn once you start you will get hooked! Pardon the pun! It is very additive! I learnt from Youtube by starting with granny squares then everything just came along. Good luck

    I got the pattern from a very detail tutorial blog here. I changed the colours a bit and the pattern of the flower as i prefer a 5 petal flower and of course i made up my own border ending with a scallop edging.

    Hope that helped! :)

    :o thank you for the lovely comment! Once i learnt i couldn't stop, as soon as the kids were in bed i was crocheting late into the night. With me once i've started a project i just can't stop until i've finished! Lol!

    My later project is to make the kids a trapper style winter hats. I would love to make a soft toy snake for DS like the one from Attic24!
