Off the Hook

The beginning

 

 

 

 

Baby blanket for a friend.  I found this wonderful tutorial Neat Ripple Pattern by Lucy .  As a beginner I found her tutorials easy to follow and very inspiring.  This was my first real crochet project and also the one that helped me overcome the sudden shock of the empty nest.  I mentioned this in my first post entry.

 

 

Moving On

 

 

My mom moved to a lovely security village in September 2012.  I made her a blanket in her favourite colour, blue, for her bed.  I'll tell you more about the BIG MOVE later.  She loves her blanket.  The pattern, Summer Garden Square, is also from Lucy at Attic24.

 

 

Beach House (Huisie-by-die-See)

 

I'll tell you more about this special place later.  We bought our house exactly 2 years ago and most of my finished crochet projects found a special place here.

 

 

Winter is Here

 

My 3 colour blanket for cold winter evenings, Eva Shawl and scarf.

 

 

For my sister

 

My sister and also my best friend.  I made this for her bed at the beach house.  Autumn colours. The pattern is Circle of Friends by Priscilla Hewitt

 

Exam Blanket

 

 

My daughter is a student at the University of Stellenbosch.  She just wrote her mid year exams.  When she started writing, I started this blanket for her.  Exams and blanket done and dusted!

 



 

See you soon!
