Crochet Girl Gang CAL 2

After a bit of a hiccup with stitch counting (Not at my end the pattern was wrong in my humble opinion) I had to redo 50% of the squares,

Here is the boyish version for my nephew.

Gone Blanket Crazy

Posted by Crazy Knitter22 at 11:23 am 0 comments
As I mentioned in an earlier post I am making the Crochet Girl Gang CAL in both colours.
3 weeks finished.

That's how it looks atm.


I made the Lily Pond CAL close to the original colours and gave it away as birthday gift.
Which was a massive success but I also got the request to make another for the other settee.
I am not the one who likes to make the same stuff twice. But then I spotted that Stylecraft released a new colour version of Lily Pond.
I thought, yeah! I don't mind making another in a different colour.
I am already making the last pieces after a good week.
The new Lily Pond version is called Cherry Blossom.
It looks so stylish.
So that's another Xmas present sorted.


Browsing through eBay I found a simple blanket pattern I knew I could finish in time.

5 x 307 Vanilla Cream

I'll post each one once they are finished.
