Hi everyone!
Phew, it has been a long time since I wrote my last blog post. I thought about it a lot, but in the end, my day didn’t have enough hours.
Now that the blanket is finished, I love it. It is soft and lush. I really hope, the recipient will like it too. It is a gift for a dear friend of mine who turned 60 last December. I wanted to finish the blanket in time for her birthday, but eh, that didn’t work out. It will be more of a Easter surprise now. I will pack and ship it soon!
The pattern is really easy to follow and after a couple of rows, i developed a nice rhythm. I had to crochet more rows (lots more) to reach the desired length. I assume that’s because I used a 4mm hook and a slightly different yarn.
Belissma is a lovely yarn to work with. It was a great stitch definition and just flows from the hook.
As much as I love the blanket, I am glad I am able to crochet smaller projects again now. I am currently testing a pattern for Michelle. Stay turned – it looks great!
Take care,
Anne
