“Fall” in love

By
January 3, 2013

Hello my friend!
First post in 2013…
I hope you’ve had a beautiful holiday season and that 2013 will be a wonderful year for all of you!
We’ve had some great time together with baby Joe this Christmas and the girls are still at home…they will be back to school on the 7th …
We are still in “digestion” mode after all the food we ate during these 2 weeks…uuuuf…a diet is a must now…just water for two or 3 days hehe…to wash out all the not-healthy-at-all-food… 😀

To have a good start of 2013 I began a blanket 🙂 Yes, I am a blanket lover and I love making blankets…This blanket will be for a cousin of mine who’s got married in summer and who moved to a new warm and very cosy home…but she don’t crochet and a home without a crocheted blanket in the living room is not a home don’t you agree ? 😉

I have enough blankets for my home and crocheted bedspreads for every room so one of the resolutions for 2013 I’ve made, is to make blankets for the others, friends and cousins who do not crochet…I have to have a REASON to crochet more blankets … 😉

The blanket I started for N. is with the autumn colors…that’s why I called it “fall” in love…it will be a fall colors blanket…

These are the colors I chose…

I love these colors: Red, orange, purple, greens etc…they are so warm and they let me think about cosy winter nights in front of a fire 🙂

And this is the start of “fall” in love :

The pattern is the very classic square and the squares are joined together with a last round made with chains and s.c…

Next time I’ll post for you the very easy graphic to follow if you’re interested…
And I have to show you too the progress I’ve made to my granny shawl…delicious 🙂

2012 was a blessed year for us with the addition of baby Joseph to our family and it was a very good year for me in crochet talking as I’ve made two big projects two bedspreads (one for baby Joe’s room and one for ours) and many other projects too…thanks to your presence and encouraging comments to every post I write 🙂 You’ll never know how much I appreciate every word that you leave here my friend and I’m very sorry that I’m not able these days to leave a personal response to each and every one of you…
Hoping that 2013 will be a good year for you and for me…
Many many kisses and hugs…

    Oh I love the new blanket! It’s very pretty! I’m going to be doing the same thing for one of my cousins too. I hadn’t decided on what though so maybe I’ll just follow your lead and do a granny square of some kind. I’m so glad I get to “spend” another year with you! Happy new year and may this one be just as blessed as the last one! Many hugs and much love to you and your’s! 🙂

    Beautiful choice in colors for the new blanket! I agree with you, everyone needs (deserves) to have a snuggly blanket crafted with love. And we crocheters find that one can only have so many, we must find others to crochet for or we will run out of room!! Best to you and your family in the New Year!!! Love, Darlene in Wisconsin.

    Angie, 2012 was a wonderful year for you 🙂 And I so appreciate you letting us have a peek into your world and your wonderful family. I can’t wait to see the progess of your Fall In Love blanket for your cousin. I know she will be thrilled with it…I sure would be.

    I agree with you that every home deserves a crocheted blanket in the living room to snuggle under.

    I look forward to your posts so very much in this year that we are now in.

    I hope your life continues to be blessed.

    Happy New Year! A new year is a reminder to celebrate all the things that are good in your world… the people you love, the places you are part of, the memories you hold on to… …all those unforgettable moments when you close your eyes and breathe in life with a smile. May your heart be filled with lots of little reasons to celebrate – at the New Year and always.

    I love your new blanket and the idea to crochet one for loved ones who do not crochet. I’ve started a Giant Granny Square for my lovely Mother-In-Law and I’m planning another for my equally wonderful Sister-In-Law (both do not knit or crochet!). For Christmas, I made a lush triple strand crochet blanket in Lavender for my son’s girlfriend. I hope they all will feel the love put into each and every stitch! 😀

    Happy New Year to you and your family.

    I love the new blanket. I like the delicate edges to the squares, which must be made by the way you have joined the squares. I want to make one now 🙂 I am looking forward to your graphic pattern.

    Thanks again for your inspiration.
