Week seven - bobbles - Stars colourway

Week eight - waffle stitch - Stars

I struggled for ages with the tension on week nine when doing the Rain blanket so abandoned it to catch up with Stars. When I went back to it, there were no problems at all. It came up the right size first time. Bizarre, but I'm not complaining.
Week nine - Rain

Week nine - Stars

Week ten is the latest to give me problems. I can do the stitch, I just don't want to. It's fiddly and time consuming and I feel it's too much time and effort for a 'meh' finish. I'm doing shell stitch instead as I feel it fits in with the theme, it looks good, and is easy enough to do.
In the meantime, (sigh) I seemed to have signed up for yet another CAL. Obviously having three blankets on the go wasn't enough


This one is the Carousel CAL by Stylecraft and I'm doing it in their new Batik yarn which is quite yummy. I've completed part one and am champing at the bit for part two in a few days.

I really should update this more often rather than suddenly flooding it with hundreds of photos, but the problem I'm having is that every time I try to type anything, it attracts Rosie's attention and she climbs onto my lap for a cuddle, usually arranging one arm around her so that I have to type one-handed. Not complaining, you understand, just explaining
