Hello friends.  In this week's tutorial, I will be showing you, how to make these super cute granny flower hexagons.  Hexagons make great blankets.  The motifs could be used on their own to make coasters, or you could join a few together to make placemats.  I'm sure you can think of many more ideas for these pretty motifs... Granny Flower Hexagons Materials Yarn Darning needle Hook Use a hook recommended on your yarn ball band Abbreviations / Terms US terms are used through out (UK terms) dc - double crochet (treble crochet) ch - chain sl st - slip stitch st(s) - stitch(s) sp - space Other notes: Fasten off and change colour after each round.  Join a new colour with a sl st in any  sp.  If you wish to make these in a solid colour simply sl st into the next ch sp to start the new round. I used Drops Paris and Scheepjes Cahlista cotton yarn with a 5 mm (H) hook to make my hexagons, but you can use any yarn...

2019 Temperature Blanket & CAL Hello friends, we have come to the end of spring, so it is time to do a temperature blanket update.  It has been so lovely seeing all your progress over at the Facebook Group .  Your blankets are all looking amazing and all so different too.  If you are only just joining us you can find the free pattern here...   We have had a pretty cold spring here in Berkshire.  My colours have been mostly blues and greens... ...with the addition of a few rows in yellows and peach.  It's so nice to see some warmer colours.   After a few weeks of warmer temperatures the weather has turned cold again. Looking forward to seeing some oranges and red, hopefully that summer weather is on its way. Thanks for checking in and I will see you all again soon. Catherine x Related posts...
