I've only been #crocheting for 10 months and this is the first little blanket I made out of charity shop yarn. Fits in well with Mexican/Indian-style office/basement! Now I've found my true love in #freeformcrochet but thought I'd share my journey one project at a time.

#Crochet isn't just my hobby. It's a lifeline to my mother and my #Mexican #culture

With every stitch, every loop and every turn of the hook, I carry the legacy of my great-grandmother and my mom, as well as the cultural history of #Mexico.
Just balled up some hand-dyed skeins ready to knit with.
Think they'd work together to make this shawl.

My hand-dyed yarn from https://sallyridgway.com.au/ arrived last night. The blues are for the Venezia shawl while the others will be for two shawls that I'm still deciding what patterns (also need a few more complementary skeins). They're for my young granddaughters who are into pinks and apricots.
Waiting on this month's sock club yarn & pattern to arrive as well as the yarn for another shawl.

The Kentucky Squares blanket is finally done, and the owners of the B&B are thrilled with it. It was such a fun project to make, and I loved working on it with my best friend. #crochet #crafts #craftstodon #YarnArt #handmade
Iβm with my best friend in Kentucky and all the squares for the Kentucky Sampler Blanket finally got to meet! We framed them all in blue to get them close as possible to the same size. We start joining them this morning. Itβs remarkable that two people eight hours away from each other managed to match our tension as well as we did. But then, I taught her. Iβm so proud. I hope the owners of the B&B like it!

Oh dear!
Found two more shawl patterns that I've had to buy. Naturally that meant I had to buy the hand-dyed yarn ... oops

I know I told myself I wouldn't buy any more yarn but I'm afraid I succumbed. Stay tuned for more socks, shawls, beanies...lol

One down, four more to go on my project for Loose Ends. I am extremely pleased with how it is turning out so far. Doing my best to do it justice. #Crochet #Crafts #Craftstodon #YarnArt #CrossStitch
All ten of my squares for the Kentucky Sampler Blanket are finished! I held up my end of the bargain. I hope my best friend is ready with her ten when we meet again in June. This blanket is going to be wild. #crochet #crafts #craftstodon #handmade #YarnArt
The 9th square for the Kentucky Sampler Blanket is done. I only have one left and my 10 are done. My friend had better get busy on hers. #Crafts #Craftstodon #Crochet #Handmade #YarnArt

Almost finished my latest pair of socks. My lovely 4ply hand-dyed self-striping wool from 'Yarns with Alix' is a dream to knit with, especially with my Symfonie needles.

My radiotherapy starts this week so thought I'd knit a couple of scarves as a distraction...lol.
Also bought some delicious hand-dyed sock wool by Alix in Tassie that I can't wait to start knitting with. Hopefully knitting will keep my mind occupied during my treatment.

My #TahitiKAL is also finished, woop woop! I got the wool in Tampere, the wool itself is from Norway, but was dyed in Tampere. So this was a perfect memory of my Finland holiday last October. I'm so happy how it turned out! Pattern is Maeva by Feinmotorik on ravelry/Instagram. @knitting #knitting #knitted #yarnart #yarnaddict

Finished & coming to the shop in a few weeks, once it's bound! It's a shame the camera doesn't pick up all the purples and browns very well but I think it looks good! #shophandmade #handmadeuk #yarnart
I forgot to do the cheeks.
It's the details that make it cute.
