I went in through the cog symbol as usual. My post disappeared and I had to choose between save or delete. Have just tried again and it has gone back to normal. Thanks Daisy_1571craft stash 2023 =161, 2024 = 119 2025 = £35.96 spent, 144 made and 5 mended,

Thank you!Wraithlady said:@sammy_kaye18, the card is gorgeous!
Couple of makes (finally!) - finished a purple top and made a pair of leggings for Whitby. The leggings were too short for some reason, so more like pedal pushers, but they fit and I finished them so it counts!
Busy crocheting the Coronation blanket atm
I love the colour purple.
Are you crocheting a whole blanket or a square to be added to a blanket?

Flattered as I am, that's the pic on the Sirdar website, from whence I got the pattern.
That was crocheted by someone far more skilled than I am - I haven't even finished mine!
