Yummy stripy Yarn Along . . .

You know when sometimes a week just seems to run away with you, and before you know it, it's Thursday already and you still haven't put the new plants you bought on Monday in the ground and you really, really wanted to do that whilst the sun was still out and before the rain that is forecast for Thursday arrives ? Oh and to top it all, it's hay fever season and it seems particularly and annoyingly bad this week ? Etc etc etc . . .

Right, that's the whiney bit over - it's really not a bad week at all, just a busy one : -)

 So, just a quick post - joining up with Ginny's weekly Yarn Along - to show you my finished crocheted cotton Stripy Ripple blankie.

 Once again, the pattern is from Cute & Easy Crochet by Nicky Trench. {I do LOVE this book}

 It's the first time I've attempted the ripple and it really was quite simple once I got the hang of it, and I sewed in the ends as I went along and completed each stripe which made it less of a schlepp once the blanket was done.  And the edging was fun and easy to do too.

As for the reading - the latest Making mags are tempting me on my bedside table, just waiting for a wee moment to be read.

Roll on, the weekend : - )
