I’m back for our weekly bloghop care of Sarah’s Craftshed.
I haven’t done much crafting this week as I’ve been sorting out my MSc, PhD research and associated paperwork that’s cluttering the office. I’d like to be able to use the desk for painting, and we don’t have a use for all the copies of research papers now.
I have started a chevron blanket, as the first on has proved ideal. The yarn has some alpaca in it, so it’s warm in winter and sufficient with a top sheet in summer when we don’t want a duvet.
Here’s the first one I made. Bella loves it, as did poor Gracie:
Sunday was a beautiful day here. sunny but without the forecast heatwave. In fact, the whole weekend flouted the regulations that say it must rain on bank holiday weekends.😹 We went up to Perry Court Farm for lunch and shopping. We’ll be back on 5th Oct for the Apple fair but they had some lovely Worcester Pearmains already.
I noticed they had some hand knitted sheep for sale - the prices made me blink!
Bella sends you all purrs
I think they’ve already taken over 😹😹Happy WOYWW

You’ve made many gorgeous things but that chevron blanket must be one of the best, the colours, patterns, everything just work so well, I love it! Bet the new one will work well in those lovely yarns too. Those chickens at Perry Court are nothing compared to yours which have so much more character! It was boiling here on August BH Monday too, good grief, chucking it down today thought you can hear the gardens sigh with relief.

Love the colours of that first chevron blanket.
I think the cost of those sheep and chickens is about right in the boutique shops that seem to sell things at high prices. When I made things I used to think, if only i could sell these like the ones I see in shops. Don't know how they get away with it but they seem to.
Hugs, Neet 2 xx
ps didn't know Julia Roberts could crochet
I think the blanket is fabulous !! Great funnies as always. Happy woyww Helen #3
Gorgeous blanket, love it. I love your cat funnies, my two schnauzers are a bit like that. If I got to the toilet and don't shut the door they wont come in but stand at the door giving me very strange looks. I can't imagine what they are thinking. Bit late today as I had to go out. Happy woyww with hugs Angela x9x
Your blanket is just stunning, I love it. Those chickens for sale are no where near as good as yours. Happy WOYWW. Angela #11
