crocheted cushion






I have been a little naughty lately with my blog.I finished my pillow last weekend, but I am only just blogging about it now. I haven't felt like posting, which leads me to feelings of guilt! So I figured I would set time aside today to post.
The granny square pattern is from Attic 24 and the pattern for joining the squares is from Carina's blog.
I am also working on a pair of wrist warmers, which I found on attic 24's blog.It took a while to get the size right as I have hands the size of a childs!
This crocheting business is slightly addictive.
I have also booked a beginners crochet class at Makedomenders.I am going with my mate Rachel, it will be an eveing of crochet, tea and cake eating!! It's worth checking out their site.

Crochet mad?....me?

I cannot get enough of the stuff, on the train, in my lunch break, on the way to Tesco's, in my sleep.......I think that I am obsessed! I have tried many times in the past to learn with my Ma, but no joy until now.
A few weeks back we spent a few hours one cold Sunday afternoon and my ma was sure to teach me the ways of the hook! Now I can't leave it alone.I grabbed some wool that I had at home and started the Grannie's..what I am making I don't know, but I don't care because it's making me a happy girl.
I have taken a few pictures of what I've done to date....


I am using Chocolate, latte and pale pink yarn.

Round one

Round two....round three is missing from the pics!

Granny squares



I wanted to do the Sunburst Granny squares after Seeing Coco Rose's beautiful pillow, but I couldn't get my head around the pattern. However I found a similar pattern on Attic 24, that has kindly been put there for the sharing of all who are obsessed with the hook and yarn! Check out both site's for crafting goodness!
