I'm not up to making and sending out ATCs yet, but here's a little ditty for you all, on rainbow lace, since the 13th anniversary =lace.
I’ve finished my little squares blanket and am now working on a Crochet along blanket by Polly Plum. It’s a blanket with an interesting triangular construction called In a Tizzy. It works best with cake yarn, as the stripes ray out from the centre, but I’ve had some mares with online wool colours. I can’t go wool shopping yet so I’ve been at the mercy of the online shops. This one turned out horribly muddy
This one looked very different from the online picture
Hopefully I’ve now found the colours I want.
Bella and Gracie send purrs to you all
And finally….
Enjoy the Anniversary
Hugs

I am not swapping this year either Lynne. Hope you are up to going wool shopping in person again soon, must be really frustrating. Meow to Bella and Gracie. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #4
ReplyDeleteHappy 13th WOYWW Lynne! I LOVED your poem, perfect to sum up what this Wednesday lark is all about! I see what you mean about that wool, they hid the yellow completely on the web photo and it doesn’t look right in for what you’re aiming for, I much prefer the second one.
ReplyDeleteSending hugs to you and hope you’re feeling a bit better each day,

I have missed your yarn-y makes and your funnies! So happy to make it back for the big week. Happy 13th year of WOYWW!

Great funnies. I love the yarns but agree - I too have had a few online disasters - it's so hard to get a true colour representation isn't it. Happy 13th WOYWW anniversary! Thanks for the years of friendship and inspiration. xx Jo
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to comment on all blogs today [I'm using the laptop cos I struggle on my Ipad] Happy Anniversary to you. It's a wonderful community we belong to and it's so lovely to have made so many friends thanks to our WOYWW link ups. Really love your little ditty.

I enjoyed your poem and your funnies. Bleubeard says meow to Gracie and Bella.
ReplyDeleteI love your crochet, even what you are calling bland. However, I am sorry you got yarn that didn't work for the second quilt. There was definitely no yellow in the internet photo. I hope you find a good use for it in the future. Happy 13th from # 1.
Love your little lace poem - thank you. Sorry you are not feeling up to normal as yet, hope it soon happens and yu can enjoy the lovely weather.
ReplyDeleteLovely crochet and I don't mind the colour of that one, it's nice as they all are.
Hugs, Neet 7 xx
It is such a gamble buying yarn on line isn't it, although I have to say I do like the muddy one! It's very frustrating that the company didn't photograph the entire blue ball and show a small sample of the yarn knitted up -that's a lot of yellow to hide but they managed it surprisingly well! I love the colours you have finally chosen, very calm and pretty. The throw is also gorgeous - just my colours, as I'm sure I've said before! I do hope you are soon well enough to go yarn shopping in person.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW anniversary, and I hope you have a good week - love the funnies by the way.

Happy WOYWW Anniversary. The poem is gorgeous and really captures the sentiment of it all. Sorry to hear you are still so poorly - I hope things improve soon. Love the crochet and the first funny really made me laugh. With Love & God Bless, Caro xxx (#11)
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn, Happy Anniversary my friend. Hope you're feeling better soon. Loving the blanket now it's complete and the funnies are brilliant. Wishing you a very happy woyww on this special day. Hugs Angela x15x
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary WOYWW. Thank you for the poem. I hadn't realised that 13th anniversary = lace. Missed out on a trick there. Clever crochet. Ali x #7
ReplyDeleteGreat ditty, well done! hope you get to visit some wool shops soon - I quite like the horribly muddy one!! hope you feel much better very soon. Take care, and hugs for the lace anniversary Helen #3
ReplyDeleteIt’s amazing how different colours can look online and always disappointing when it’s different. Happy 13th WOYWW Anniversary x Angela #13
ReplyDeleteLove the funnies and the little ditty....I was wondering why you put lace, now I know!! Happy 13th Anniversay WOYWW ((Lyn)) #21
ReplyDeleteLove the ditty!
ReplyDeleteAnd I like the yarn!
Happy 13th WOYWW Anniversary!
Stay safe and keep well!

Oh I love your poem Lynne, how v thoughtful. And I know it makes a difference when it’s not what you thought but actually I really like all the yellow in that yarn! It’s a lovely pattern , In a Tizzy! It is going to look gorgeous in the lighter yarn too, already makes me a bit wanty! Your small squares blanket is really lovely, I think you’re a bit prolific! We talked on FB today about our rapid trip to Hythe. We order about twice a year from this particular place and they don’t deliver, so there’s every chance that I’ll be back…pre pandemic I always did the collection on my own, I’m not really sure why Bart decided to come today! Probably the longest ‘date’ we’ve had together for a while though!!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated 13th!
ReplyDeleteGreat little poem!
I, too, like the yellow. So cheery!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Lynne, sorry to hear you've been bad with COVID - it can really take it out of you can't it. I think I was set back for over 4 weeks but then again I didn't have any vaccinations.
ReplyDeleteSuper ditty, forgot it was the lace anniversary. Love the crochet triangles too, very unusual I must say. Hope you get your energy back soon.
I've been concentrating on my Hebrew so not done any Welsh in weeks as it happens. Oh well.
Sorry I'm so late, I seem to get busy Wednesday's through the weekend....
Happy very belated WOYWW Anniversary BJ#18
