Seems all the rosebud doll patterns were published as a book!

Thanks Charlie's mum, just looked on internet for crochet scalloped edge and doesn't look too hard, i can do basic crochet and my friend's mum is an expert so will ask her for a tutorial!

Now to see if I got any wool left.

Full of good intentions to crack on with the housework this morning - guess what I did instead? Now off to do some gardening.

Remember someone asked how many pairs of socks I knitted (Janb5) ?




Missing are one pair donated to mum and DS 4 pairs that have now gone to charity.....

Is anyone here a crochetter? I've been given a baby blanket by my new baby's great grandma and I'd really like to try and do it only I can't quite get it. I asked her how she did it and I've got the jist but she lives far away. If I took a pic of it and explained how she did it would anyone be able to tell me how I'm going wrong with mine please? (Sorry I know this is a knitting thread!)

There is a crochet thread on here too.......not time to find the link but if you search it will be there. Feel free to post a pic on here, some of us (including me) do crochet.

Good morning,
This is my first post on this thread but i was looking for some advice.

I have found a pattern for a blanket done in seed stitch with super chunky yarn. I have about 10 100g balls of chunky yarn which i want to double up for this pattern but what size needle would i use?

Chunky calls for 10mm, so would i go up to 12mm?


Hope someone can help :-)
