Thanks to you all I've been inspired to start crocheting again

So I now have Attic24 style ripple, stripe cushion and round "target" striped cushions brightening up my sofa. Next on my list is a chunky sweater - wish I'd started that first now the snow and ice are here!

Not sure if anyone else has found Hejhog.co.uk, but they do some lovely wools at very reasonable prices (including Debbie Bliss) and delivery is quick too.

Jessie15, where did you find the pattern for the Japanese Flower Scarf, did you buy the book? I can't seem to find the pattern on Attic24

I'm looking forward to seeing your photos, I upload photos to Photobucket to make it easier to add them on here, if that helps.

I have used Hejhog too, and agree with everything you say about them, they have been very good.

I think we are all more than a little addicted to Attic24 :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Thank you soo much . I have loads of left over dk wool after knitting clowns that I want to make into a throw and wanted to crochet butdidnt know how ( taught myself to knit after mum showed me knit and purl - she's a leftie and I'm not) but I never got the hang of crochet. The link will help and this is going to be this years project. Hope to be done by Christmas ( sorry did I mention the C word) tho after all the effort bet I'll want to keep it! Will hopefully look good tho.

I will try to upload some pics this weekend then.

With regards to the pattern, I searched the web and nearly gave up but eventually found it. I will pm you the link if you like? I really am enjoying doing it and the Debbie Bliss Andes yarn is really lovely, I have done 20 flowers now.

Oooh yes please! I have searched too, but so far have only found it in French, hhmmmm, I do speak French, but not crochet terms, so thank you that would be really good. :j:j

Would you be able to post the link here?

I thought you might like to see the start of my African Flower cushion. Well I say cushion, I've only actually made this one so far, and I'm half way through the second. I do love this pattern.

Hi all :wave:

Feels like its been ages since I posted on here. Am struggling with crochet at the mo..... i try to start things but I just can't get motivated to do them.

Bought some cushion inserts today for 50p each so hope to make some covers for them..... maybe!

Nice to see all your project and a big hi to newbies.
