I'm In Love...


with a pattern that is... 

LOL

I have one panel (of 10) complete in the "Wooded Lodge" afghan.  This pattern is so much fun, I enjoy doing the different stitches and seeing how the pattern develops.  I think this is going to be really cool, oops, I mean warm when it's done.  The panel is very heavy.

I've found the pattern in two different places...



On a different note...

One of the expectant nieces had her little one a bit early, so I started working on the second baby blanket yesterday.  I'm using the Tiramisu pattern.  It's one I turn to time and again; tried and true and I'm making it in blue!  

She had a little boy.

  3. Wow! That is really beautiful. I have that afghan book, too. I think I'm going to have to take a look at that pattern. I really love the look of it.

  4. That is going to be stunning. I love the look of Anne Halliday's patterns too. I have made the Tiramisu Blanket. It's a goodie also. Everyone loves the way they look with the pretty ribbon.

  5. Love the colors in your afghan, but after looking at the pattern I agree it will be a very warm afghan, too warm for central FL at least.
    I've made the Tiramisu blanket for several new babies also. I love that pattern.

  7. Looks so great! I'm happy to hear that you have "fallen" for it the more you worked on the first panel. :-)

  9. Your crochet work is always so beautiful, Heather. This pattern is quite lovely but I have a feeling I would be missing stitches and the pattern would not emerge as beautifully as it has for you. :/ Welcome baby boy to the world! I know the blanket you make for him will be gorgeous, too. Best wishes, Tammy

  10. Thank you for your nice comments. I have the ends woven in on the first panel and will be concentrating on the baby blanket for a few days.

    Kris, no the pattern isn't difficult, you just need to follow along with the instructions. It's not something you can memorize; at least I haven't so far. :-)

  14. Thank you! :-)

    Tempewytch, I wouldn't classify it as easy, but it isn't difficult either. Just a matter of keeping the pattern close at hand to refer to. :-)
