Tania said...: Nice heart! And you're beginning to turn my head (loving the portability of crochet). What's your take on your book I have promptly forgotten the title of? Would you recommend it, mistakes and all?; July 9, 2009 at 8:51 PM
amity ville boronia said...: Whatever it is, it looks good!; July 9, 2009 at 9:49 PM

M* said...: LOL! Thank you!; July 9, 2009 at 9:56 PM
M* said...: The yarn is so beautiful. I bought it from Morris and Sons. It's 80% bamboo, 20% Merino. It is kind of silky feeling and quite heavy weight. It's marketed as baby wool, no doubt due to it's softness.; July 9, 2009 at 9:58 PM
Alisa : Ink Caravan said...: What a beautiful shot M!; July 10, 2009 at 11:13 AM
julie k said...: I found you through Kirsty's Creative Space and your stitches are so even! I've just recently become addicted to crochet. It's so relaxing.; July 10, 2009 at 11:13 AM
woollywotnots said...: LOL! there's nothing more to be said on the matter! :) I love your crotchet, it is so neat and perfect! :-); July 10, 2009 at 4:55 PM

M* said...: I replied to this the other night but it's not showing that I have. I apologise if you are getting two comments!

Why don't you try crocheting the squares together?; July 11, 2009 at 1:47 PM

<div class="js-singleCommentText" style="padding-top: 4px;">The book is called Crochet Stitch Motifs - 250 to crochet by Erika Knight. I think the 'mistakes' in the book are translation issues. Uk vs Us stitches and forgetting to edit them properly. If you know what you are doing and recognise that what you know to be a dc should be a treble, the pictures help, then you'll be fine</div>

M* said...: Thanks Cindy; July 11, 2009 at 1:52 PM
Lucy Bowler said...: Yes, that's actually what I meant! The knitted squares will be crocheted together - I have to learn to crochet first though! Mum's done this with baby blankets for the kids and it looks much better than the knitted ones being joined straight on to each other. Lessons will have to start soon!; July 12, 2009 at 8:28 AM
Kate said...: Me too! I also love looking at yours!; July 17, 2009 at 1:57 PM
