Crochet

On Friday the postman delivered a parcel that I was very excited to receive.  I ordered a selection of wool from the Attic24 yarn shop.  I am doing the granny stripe blanket that Lucy designed using double knit special wool by Stylecraft,  The colours are wonderful, so warm and rich; the wool is really soft, brilliant for a snuggly blanket.

My order arrived really quickly and well packed.  When I opened the parcel, it wasn't in a boring plastic bag but this lovely net bag: 



I have copied an idea from Lucy and put a bit of wool around a clothes peg along with a note of the colour and shade on one end.

As you can see I am getting on quite well with the blanket.
