Wedding Blanket Ta-Dah!


Hello Folks

Time has gone by again, we've broken up from school (hooray!), and I am writing this post from Chicago.  I'm here for three weeks with Mr Clicky and having a lovely time.

Thankfully I got 'The' Wedding blanket finished with a week to spare, so I was able to give it to my teacher on the last day of term.   Each square had a round of eleven colours with a border of three cream.

I crocheted the squares together through the back loop.
The border is four rows of treble crochet.
I packed it up with a bottle of fizz

and made a card by stitching some fabric scraps onto a piece of cotton fabric.  I think my stamping needs a bit of work!

While Mr Clicky is at work I'm planning to spend some time around the swimming pool at our apartment block, knitting.

 That's me for now, have a lovely week.

 Clicky Needles.

    Fab blanket; I'd be thrilled if I received something like that as a gift. Enjoy your summer, although I understand Chicago can be a bit on the hot and humid side this time of year.
