Simple thoughts: With just one click …

Good morning!

While I am sitting today in my favorite chair in front of the window drinking my coffee and joining some squares to My vintage blanket I was thinking about life, our life, our 2011 life…

It is strange how our hole life has changed since the invention of the internet…

Do you think sometimes about it? How our grandmothers used to live and how we are living today? How..

with just one click I can go to your place…

with just one click I can knock to your door (and it is always open for me)…

with just one click I can be at your home, in your very own and personal environment …

with just one click I can watch your children grow…

with just one click I can see how you’re spending your days…

with just one click I can take a look at your wips, get some inspiration and dream…

with just one click I can feel that you are sad or happy…

with just one click I can feel that you’re in love or in a very very bad mood…

with just one click I can leave you a sweet message to brighten up your day, tell you that I am thinking of you, that I admire your work, I feel your pain or joy or just tell you : Hello!…

with just one click I’ll be with you while it is still 10.00 a.m here and it’s maybe in the middle of the night there, where you are, in the other part of the world…

with just one click we can be together wherever we are…

with just one click I can send you kisses, warm thoughts and hugs…

with just one click I can wish you a beautiful day, a wonderful evening, sunshine and colorful moments…

with just one click…

Welcome ladies to our fun crochet a-long!!

Today I want you to applause our friend AntaraCeletna who has already crocheted 62 rounds and maybe more… 62 rounds !! woooow ! We are sooo proud of you πŸ™‚ and her blanket is lovely with beautiful colors πŸ™‚ Do not miss it: it is here πŸ™‚ You did an amazingΒ  job so far AntaraCeletna !! BRAVO!

There is a lot of wonderful blankets on flickr here and on Ravelry here….Go take a peek, it really worth a visit πŸ™‚

Mine has 38 rounds so far and it is very big already…I think it is because the yarn I’m using is a little chunky…

The days are getting hotter and hotter here (36 Celsius) and I have some difficulties putting it on my lap while crocheting πŸ™‚

But I’m enjoying every single stitch …and that what counts πŸ˜€

This is my favorite pic so far:

mmmh deliciosa πŸ˜€

I’m a granny-obsessed-lover!

and as much as I enjoy crocheting I love looking at everyone’s GIANT and love how the other blankets are slowly getting bigger and bigger …

You are making wonderful pieces of ART ladies! Keep on the beautiful job πŸ˜‰

Before leaving you today I want you to take a look there πŸ™‚ (miammm that is really delicious πŸ™‚ ) (Thank you Linda for this very cute link !)

Have a wonderful sunshiny week!

Flowery scarf………………………….D O N E :)

Good morning sweeties,

How are you today? Here the sun is shining, birds singing and I am in a very happy mood πŸ˜€

I finished yesterday my scarf and I must admit it is a very easy process making and the result is wonderful…

Let’s have a peek, shall we?The scarf , as you see here, is long enough to wrap it two timesΒ  around my neck… It makes a 208cm long and 23cm large…I think it is the perfect dimensions for a neck warmer πŸ˜‰

I crocheted it using the leftovers of my Stylecraft special DK yarns I bought online from here

… with a 3mm crochet hook.

Now, I have to concentrate on my fairy tale blanket (the one and only project in my hands for the moment πŸ™‚ ) and try to finish it before beginning anything else (that’s what I always say and never do πŸ˜‰ )

Our “move” (to a new home) is in one week (on the 28th)…the count down has begin…I am feeling so excited and a little stressed about the coming weeks…cross your fingers that everything will go well…

And now I must leave you and go back to my fairy tale which I’ll show you the progress done so far next time πŸ™‚

Until then, I wish you a wonderful weekend wherever you are around the globe…

Kisses,

Sucrette

I hope we will be many many many making this project so we can encourage each other to enjoy crocheting such a big blanket …

And like a french quote says: “Plus on est de fous et plus on rit”Β  (which means: the more we are crazy the more we laugh…Did I translate good Rachel? ;))

So, who’s gonna join next?

The squares you are seeing in this post are number7, 8, 9 and 10!

It is beginning to take shape and I am in love with what it looks like so far …

I adore the mixing of the colors…

I’m feeling like it’s gonna be a very happy MONSTER…and it will bring life and colors to our bedroom πŸ™‚

This is the first time I make a project so big and I was afraid i’ll not be able to finish it…but now, thanks to you who are reading me behind your screen I am sure I will :):)

Have a beautiful day!

Kisses,
