I decided to give you a photo-log of my progress this week on a baby blanket for a friend:
 |
| Testing the pattern - which one shall I use? |
 |
| Getting colours together |
I'm using Vinni's - a local yarn. You'll see that the textures differ: the smooth, duller yarn is Nikkim, a 100% cotton. The glossy one is Serina - organic bamboo, and the lumpy one is Bambi, a bamboo/cotton mix. Lovely to work with!
 |
| Day 1 - First Square is done! |
 |
| Day 2 - Hooking the next 4 |
 |
| Day 3 - Four Circles to be Squared |
 |
| Day 4 - The centre of the blanket! |
 |
| Day 5 - Filling in the four gaps |
And this is how far I've come. I'll only do bits and pieces this week, as school started and we're all getting into the routine.
