It’s that time of year again when, hopefully, available weekends start to correspond with some fine weather and I get to sit out in the garden and crochet.
Sunshine, crochet, a little soreness from some much needed gardening and a G & T (pain relief).
My crochet circles within squares are on a roll.
I love to see them all stacked up …….. and fallen over.
Just a brief pause to see how many more I will need.
I think I’m going to go for 5 squares by 5 squares. I’m envisaging a pram blanket so not too long so it will drag on the floor but wide enough to tuck in.
I’ve just had to order a couple more of the grey.
They won’t be from the same dye lot but I’ll scatter them about. No one will see.
Love, Lucie xx
It’s beginning to look really lovely and the grey is a lot lighter than I thought. I also love crafting outside so my husband has promised to reinstate my outdoor lounging area ready for the warmer weather when we get back from Nottingham. Can’t wait!

I loved the look of your outdoor lounging area, last year. Fingers crossed for another beautiful summer.

It’s called Austermann Step 6 Irish Rainbow colours.
I bought it from my local yarn shop. It doesn’t seem that readily available in the UK but I found some here.

I have to wait until the weekend until I get out again. Looks like it might stay fine although a little cooler. Have a lovely day.
