Stripes of Love: some progress

Good morning sweeties!

I’ve been crocheting Stripes of love this week and when I feel too bored doing one treble after another I move to “Myyyy vintage blanket” to have some fun 🙂 hehe

I can never stick to one single project at a time…

So today I’m gonna show you some progress I made to my hubby’s blanket, stripes of love…

I even cheated a little bit and put some dark pink…but shuuuut do not tell him… he will for sure not even notice it when he will see the hole blanket done 🙂 hehe

I can not stick to masculine colors only … what can I do ?

Should I add more greens and blues? maybe…

I’m making Stripes of Love by crocheting 3 rows of treble, one row of dc in cream, 3 rows of treble etc

Here is a close-up… did you notice the row after the dc one?

Yes, it is crocheted in the back part of each dc stitch…I love the small lines in cream 🙂

Have to go now…

Thank you so much for your visit today and thank you for following me here in my new address and thank you for all the sweet comments you’re leaving day after day… it is always a huge pleasure reading them 🙂

Have a wonderful monday!

2 new blankets on the go :)

Good morning my friend!

I’m so happy to have you here today in my new blog 🙂

New blog, new wips and they are once more blankets 🙂

I’m obsessed with blankets! I can not help my self making more and more! But let me tell you something: I do not have a proper blanket for myself 🙁 Every time I crochet a new one, I offer it to a friend or a cousin etc

Remember my fairy tale blanket who was supposed to be a blanket for myself? Well I offered it to a friend 🙂

Remember also my love@first sight hexagon one ? I offered it too to a cousin of mine!

So I decided now to have my own blanket which I’m gonna call: Myyyy vintage blanket…It will gonna be a mixture between two patterns (the square from the fairy tale one and the inside of my love@first sight one ) with vintage colors… Too complicated to understand eh??

Well, to resume, it will be something like this:

Yes, I know, many of you are surely tired to see this kind of pattern with a creamy border….again…sorryyyyyyyyyyyyyy 🙁 but I HAVE to make one for myself ! I have to do it !!! and I will! I tried to change a little bit from the pattern of my fairy tale one…but the spirit is still the same… hope this will not bother you too much 😉

I’ll make a graphic pattern also if somebody is interested in having it!

All my graphic patterns are still here in this blog on the right sidebar! And on the left one you can find the categories, the archives, the awards and you can subscribe there too to receive an e-mail every time I write a new post!

and because I can not work on a single project I started also another blanket. This one will be for my one and only 🙂 My lovable husband who also, as far as I remember do not have a proper masculine blanket for himself 🙂

It will be called: stripes of love

and it will be huge because hubby is very very tall 🙂

working on this kind of stripy blanket may be very boring…specially if it is too large…that’s why I’m crocheting two different projects together 😉

I’m trying not to use girly-girly colors for this blanket and this is very difficult for me…

It is crocheted like this: 3 rows of tr, 1 row of dc in cream, 3 rows of treble , 1 row of dc in cream etc etc

and the row after the dc one is worked always with the back part of the dc stitch 🙂

That’s all for today! Hope you enjoyed my very first post here! Hope you loved my new blog too!

Do not forget to add this new address instead of the old one in your reader or blogroll! Just delete : “.wordpress” Thanks!

I’m sending you warm kisses and hugs from : https://www.lemondedesucrette.com

Stripy baby blanket: Tadaaaaaaaa

YES YES Yes it is done 🙂 and it is beautiful specially when you imagine a small cute baby snuggled under ….

The stripy blanket is over and I love how it turned out finally…

specially when I made the border (thank you mum for suggesting the red color…it was an excellent choice I think:) )

If someone is interested in the graphic pattern of the stripy’s border let me know so I’ll post it here …

The blanket measures 70x90cm which is a good size for a baby…

It is crocheted with a 3.5mm crochet hook and the yarn is: nako baby 50%acrylic 50%polyamid … a very soft and soooo good to hook with yarn… If you can not find this yarn in your country I suggest that you choose a yarn with this particular mixture: acrylic+polyamid…it is sooo soft you can not work with something else after you tried it…I swear 😀

I’m so in love that I suggested to my hubby yesterday that we have a third baby to go with the blanket :):) hehe

So? what do you think?  Hope you liked as much as myself 🙂

The giant granny is done too…yesterday I finished its border…I’m off to take some pics that I can show you later…

and now I’m sooooooooooo thrilled to begin something new….yaaaaaaayyyy!

Big big kisses to you all!
