This morning at 9am the instructions for crocheting a Sweet Pea blanket had been released by Lucy of Attic24 fame, each Friday there will be more guidance released. It is the first time I have attempted a CAL, Crochet Along whereby hundreds of crafters are attempting the same trellis pattern. I have kept to the rules, made a swatch and to my surprise discovered my tension is tight so am on 3rd swatch and hoping that a 5mm hook will work this time. Maybe that is why the Moorland blanket looks a bit narrow, may have to work a wider border when I reach that stage.
Whilst working on this swatch DH and I played Scrabble, very close match, I won by 8 points!
Not very clear, the yarn colour is not part of the sweet pea pack, same Stylecraft Special double knitting so good for practicing.
Get well soon! A cold can really make you so exhausted, not justifying to ourselves that we stay in bed but actually, that - or a nice walk in the fresh air, warmly wrapped up (as long as you are not feverish) would be best.
