Hope things are improved and I suspect you've already got the yarn for the Frida blanket.... am I right? She is after all, one of your inspirations so ignore the ripple blanket etc and do your thing. Imagine next winter sitting with both Stewart and Frida! I'd like to do that ripple thing as I remember seeing it in a Jane Brocket book a few years ago but I never understood the pattern and as Spring is coming I hope I don't need a blanket so I'll find something else to make a mess of!LAC EMP 2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/01999825212820503519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-4945954246944479142016-03-13T21:57:35.777+00:002016-03-13T21:57:35.777+00:00that Frida Kahlo looks very tempting!that Frida Kahlo looks very tempting!Diana Studerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12286066768376135880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-82201008977389908492016-03-13T14:28:58.778+00:002016-03-13T14:28:58.778+00:00I love all the patterns you've created with a ...I love all the patterns you've created with a just a single colour yarn.

As a Norwegian descendant we speak a lot about hygge in winter time especially. You have indeed given its essence well but there just is not an equivalent word in the English language.

I love the floral one as well. I have two beautiful granny square blankets - one with the squares joined with cream wool and a matching fringe made by an aunt, and the other with black wool joining the squares and a black border, made by my Mum. It became known as 'the poorly blanket' when our children were small. They would be tucked up on the sofa in it when they were too ill to go to school.<br />Don't forget to take your lovely blanket to Missenden, so you can tuck yourself up in it to de-stress.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-78042649720760505472016-03-11T17:13:23.272+00:002016-03-11T17:13:23.272+00:00Mums the word LOL -- we won't tell!

Your newly completed blanket for Stewart is magnificent! Again I do wonder where you find time for all you accomplish. I can see why that Kahlo-colorful crocheting might tempt you.<br /><br />It's good that you will be having a bit of an easier time this weekend.
