I breathe crochet :)

Hello there!

How’s everything?

This post is again about my hooky update 😉 Sometimes I feel like I breathe crochet 🙂

1-yarn-for-the-girls-ponchos

I choose some yarn… bright and beautiful colorful yarn to start the girls ponchos… I love when children wear colorful clothes… Don’t you agree?

And I started the two ponchos together…

2-christina's

Christina, my oldest girl (8years) chose the yellow to begin with… Here is her poncho so far…

3-sarah's

And Sarah (6years old) chose the fushia to start with 🙂

The yarn I am using is called Nako Lux Ninnos a very soft yarn with bright and lovely colors… It is worked with a 3.5mm hook…

I chose for the girls to make this granny poncho… It is very soothing and relaxing to work on… very simple pattern to follow once you make your first two rounds… I just love this design 🙂

You can find the pattern right here 😉

6-vintage-stripy-wip

I’ve added also more stripes to my vintage stripy blanket…

7-vintage-stripy-wip

I love the colors melting on this project… and I love to pick it on the evenings while watching TV with hubby 😉

8-cmb-feb-so-far

And my crochet mood blanket is slowly growing. In the pic above you can see the first 20 days of February…

9-cmb-january-and-feb-so-far

and on this one you can see it all (January + 20 days of February) …

What do you think?  Are you in love like myself? 😀

You can find here the chart of the squares and how I am joining them together as I go with the last round 😉

10-yellow-filofax-love

I am back to my yellow filofax and using it every night to plan the next day is always a pleasure for me… I love when everything is clearly written on a paper… I am “old-fashion” I know 😉

Have to go now…

I’m wishing you a beautiful day!

    What is better than to breathe crochet? I am making your mood blanket with bigger squares, and colors I have picked out but not for my mood, sort of an anti-mood blanket I would say. I love it, Thank you,

    Angie, Hi. I have a very useful item that you might like. Since you crochet so much (as I do) this “crochet hook necklace” as I call it, will help keep your hook from being dropped while you are working. I was crocheting on my front deck and dropped my hook down between the wood slats. It was my favorite hook so I managed (with some help) to get it back. But with the “hook necklace” you can’t drop your hook. I often crochet (or knit) in other places (in the car, doctor’s office) and don’t want to lose a hook. If you would like to see mine, email me at sdimucci@gmail.com and I will send you a picture. I would be happy to send you one or two for you to try.

    Those colours are so beautiful. I can’t decide which item I like best, well I can, all of them. Your choice of colours is superb. I am sure you must have had art training.

    Breathing crochet is a very good thing. 🙂 Everything is looking wonderful. I just posted about my mood blanket which I started at the beginning of the year after seeing yours. It is so much fun to do and a great way to use up my scrap yarn too. Then in the 2015, I will have more space to buy new yarn. Lol!

    Hugs from Holland,
    Heidi
