Finished this evening a lap blanket for one of the residents where I used to work who feels the cold when sat in the lounge of an evening, she’s a huge 99 year old favourite of mine

Lucky lady :loveit:

There's enough interest in the different stitches not to have got too bored with it but at the same time it doesn't look bitty. :perfect10:

I love all the different patterns. I'm sure the recipient will be cosy under that.

No ‘pattern’ I just used odd bits of leftover wool and did whatever stitches I felt like doing  :) it’s my bit of evening crochet while watching the tele

Need to find something else to make now  :[

That's a lovely quilt @justpottering , and a great way to use up leftover yarn.   <3

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.
