Yarn Along/ WIP Wednesday

I've got a bit of a cold at the moment which has been waking me up at night so I'm feeling a bit tired and sorry for myself. Perfect excuse for some crochet!

I've got the latest copy of Simply Crochet which I'm looking forward to having a look through in a minute with a nice cup of tea. I'm liking the cushion in the top left, would be good for some stash busting and for learning some new stitches. I've had my eye on Little Woollie's stripey blanket pattern for a while so looking forward to reading more about it.

I'm working on another big granny square for a blanket. I'm changing the starting colour with each square and this is the last one I think. Next I'll do the colour sequence in reverse which should give me another 7 squares and then I need to decide what to do next!

I'm still working on my Rays of Gold mystery KAL. I've tried not to show too much in this picture but I'm loving how it's knitting up. The next clue comes out on Friday and I need to do another couple of inches before I'm ready for it. This stage is quite straight forward though so I don't need to concentrate very much. Just as well really, my brain feels very fuzzy!

  17. Beautiful Granny Squares - love your color choices. I also liked the cushion in this issue of Simply Crochet but when I started crocheting I went a bit mad on making cushions so my family are a bit sick of them now!
