Virus Shawl...

I decided to crochet this lovely Virus Shawl pattern which I found on You Tube

And using a really soft cotton/wool/acrylic yarn which I bought in John Lewis

King Cole Drifter

Kentucky

400g

I made this lovely soft shawl !

The yarn is a lovely blue, cream and brown mix and I think it is perfectly suited to this project.

The Virus stitch is a bit tricky to start off but once you have completed the first few rounds, the pattern begins to make more sense and it really is a lovely project to complete.

Due the softness of the yarn I think that the shawl drapes really nicely and is very soft to touch.

Special Baby Blankets...

I've  been asked to crochet a couple of baby blankets for a charity event in the summer, so  I decided to stay with my favourite star shaped afghans which are so easy to do and they always look really pretty.

Both are crocheted in acrylic double knitting yarn

There's one for a girl

And one for a boy!!

They look like five pointed star fish and once you get the first few rounds completed they are really easy to do and can be done in any size.
