    • FO: A bounty of blankets

      You know how I mentioned that I had two large blanket WiPs? Well, I currently have no large blanket WiPs!

      Behold! One completed Pick ‘n’ Mix blanket, by Lucy Croft, which was a year long CAL with Simply Crochet and had been sitting, half joined up in a bag for *mumblemumble*. That one is single bed sized and made up of 12 squares in two different colourways. I used Stylecraft Special Aran and really enjoyed working through the squares as they came out.

      The other is the Hydrangea blanket by Lucy at Attic24 but using the Stylecraft Special DK colour pack for the Moorland blanket. This was a request from my mother and it has come out slightly smaller than double bed sized. I basically picked the colours at random but tried not to repeat any very close to the previous stripe. Also one that got fitfully worked on but the combination of not wanting to pack it up in a WiP state and seeing my mother earlier this month meant it became my At Home project.  And then once I finished that, I had to apply the same moving logic to the Pick ‘n’ Mix and suddenly they were both pretty much done.

      I have also finished my Keith Moon sweater (oh the icord, the endless, endless icord) but it is still blocking at the moment. Endlessly blocking.

      But now that I have finished all the big pre-packing WiPs, I have to start the packing, I guess!

      Tiny @thecornerofcraft advent jumper round up day 16 - 20: (clockwise) Ulitharid, Nilbog, Shape Water, Moloch and Death Lock.
      A few pictures from a lovely, quiet birthday yesterday. Walk by the Adur and around a graveyard with @oswena99 and P, a brownie from @bakedworthing, snoozy cat time and then a @hawksmoorrestaurants meal box for dinner (and breakfast this morning!). Lots of family calls and some very thoughtful presents. 🥰
      @thecornerofcraft Advent Tiny jumper round up day 11-15. Clockwise: Good Berry, Astral Projection, Pond in the Feywild, Abominable Gingerbread Man and Winter Sprite. 😍😍 I need to start turning them into bunting!
      Early Christmas present for t’hb - finally got this painting properly framed (by the smashing @aotframing!) - the painting it’s based on is a Rubens portrait of Kaspar Scioppius and this one was painted by Alexander Davenport. We won it in a raffle a couple years ago (I wasn’t enchanted at the time but Kaspar has grown on me since.) and t’hb was thrilled with his prize.
      Mincepies, new and entirely ridiculous Christmas Sloth mug and stitch markers purchased from @thecornerofcraft. Hooray!
      Next set of tiny jumpers using the yarn from the @thecornerofcraft’s advent calendar. Day 6 - 10, clockwise: Critmas Kobolt, Merry Critmas, Umberlee’s Wave, Mastermind Rogue and Faerie Dragon.
