I'm trying to keep this blog alive

I am a lazy person, and ever since joining Instagram, updating this blog has felt like too much work. And now that it's winter there is not much daylight so taking pictures has been "hard" so that has added to me just putting it off more and more.

But anyway, here is some stuff I have made recently:


First is a crochet blanket. It's made with different yarns from my stash and with no pattern, just what I felt like. I really like it.
First I made 25 log cabin-style squares and joined them, then added the hexagons to each end. On the other side is a front post/back post crochet pattern where I used my Stylecraft Special DK leftovers, and on the other is many different patterns with other random yarns. Then I made a row of crab stitch around the whole thing.


Here is a very scenic picture of my brother wrapped in the blanket.


Then there are these pillows.



This one is made of granny squares, one side has squares where I changed colour each round, and the other has squares made with multi-coloured yarn.


This one is the Bright bolster cushion from Simply Crochet issue 55. The yarn is Novita 7 Veljestä left overs. 



With this one I used the Brioche Memories pattern by Valerie Ng, which is a blanket pattern, but because it is made with one square at a time then it can be used for other thing as well. I used my sock yarn left overs and other small bits of fingering weight yarns. I really love this one.



This last one has Sweet Caroline by Helen Shrimpton as the front of the pillow, and the back is a rag rug-looking square made with very small amounts of yarn, I like the look it gives.

I want to take pics of all the things I made during the last summer and autumn to archive them, I'll have to see if I get the energy to do so.
