I just started on some Christmas tree skirts for my girls for next Christmas. I was wanting to do a fun afghan, but couldn't decide on a pattern. You came to the rescue with your big granny square! It's beautiful! I'm going to give it a try for something different. Who knows, the girls might get a tree skirt AND a blanket!Barbara Eadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05428834142056450340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-16189840305540504202015-01-13T02:52:28.269+00:002015-01-13T02:52:28.269+00:00What a beautiful blanket!

It must feel hard to say goodbye and send him off to "far far away"... even though you know it's good for him and he enjoys his studies. I hope that, by the time my boy is ready for Uni, I will have become reconciled to (if not ready for) the "going away" part... <br />Crochet is certainly a relaxation - as long as you haven't bitten off more than you can chew, which is my current situation... need to find a video that taught me how to do the current "corner to corner" blanket; being me, I have adapted it and am now in a pickle... I hope the video will refresh my memory on the basics, so I can work out how to adapt it to my own alterations!! <br /><br />Love the colourful blankets. I bet Little E will be so delighted to have his own blanket. What colours will you use?
