I can highly recommend one of these
to keep you warm on
chilly winter days!
It's so snuggly to have over my knees
while I work on it.
The only problem is I have
almost used up all my bits of DK yarn now.
I don't like to use from whole balls
but I have cheated a little bit,
especially for the brighter colours.
As you can see, it's almost large enough
for my bed now
(thankfully I don't have a king-sized one!)
Cyril has found his own way to keep warm
(aside from cuddling up on the bed)
The basket is a shopping size one,
so you can guess how big he is now
when he's not curled in a ball.
I haven't managed to get a decent photo
of Martha Bumpkin for ages,
she's such a whirlwind and starts
jumping around everytime the
camera comes out.
As I said, Cyril is allowed on our bed now
And the lovely bargain quilted throw
I got from ebay last November
is a firm favourite.
We don't get little
*wet patches* anymore,
Now we just get paw prints!!!
You've just got to love the
little dears though :-)
Love and blessings in Christ

Awww he looks so sweet curled up in there. Love your patchwork quilt!
Loving your crochet blanket, how are you doing it? It looks intriguing and something I'd very much like to try with all my bits of wool.

Hi Lorraine,
If I start another I'll put something on here or SCC.
They are really easy as long as you can do a treble.
This is my second one. The first took over 20 years, this one has took 2 years so far.
