    What a gorgeous dress!

    I have trouble posting pics here so I always put them direct on my blog.

    I sold a wee heap of yarn on ebay and I have just used the pennies to treat myself to a whole stack of Rico cotton so that I can make Amugurumi until my little heart is content :D

    Just as I was typing the doorbell rang and my delivery of a Lucy pack has just arrived :D. I only ordered it yesterday about 3ish and I can't believe it is here already, what fabulous customer service!

    I love your little Amugurumi mug on your blog :)

    Why thank you :o, it does have a very squint bottom but practice makes perfect :rotfl:

    What else did you get from Masons, go on share incase it is something I can't go on without :rotfl:

    I had planned on using the style craft to make a ripple blanket but someone on Ravelry mentioned using the Rico Cotton to make one so I am now confused as to what would be the best :)

    I just added some more colours to the Lucy Pack, any excuse really to get more :rotfl::rotfl: Before I used Stylecraft yarn I hadn't been very impressed with the finish of acrylic yarn, but I am really pleased with the result with Stylecraft and it is very economical which helps a lot! Have you used Rico Cotton before? I do love Debbie Bliss yarns but they are sooooooo pricey :eek:

    I have used Rico cotton before and I have found it quite tricky but the colours are lovely and they are handy for Amigurumi which I am keen to make more of!

    Not sure what I think of the colours in the Lucy pack :( I have seen peoples blankets and they look gorgeous but I am not a fan of quite a few of them. Not sure what to do now.

    Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino is what I am using at the moment to make a granny square blanket for my DD and it is simply divine! Extortionate though :eek:

    Oh my :eek:just started my first ripple blanket and I am sure I have miscounted my chain! It is tricky to get started, hopefully it will get easier!
