Just to show the border of linen stitch.
I have loved crocheting this and now feel just a bit lost. And I have learnt that I have quite a loose stitch, but I wasn't making any particular size just the pleasure of crocheting.
I think I'll just keep this on the stool in the lounge so I can feast my eyes on it's beauty.. oh I do love it.
What have you completed lately?

That's a lovely blanket very relaxing colours & it looks so soft. Nice to pop over your legs for telly watching.
At the moment I'm knitting brown V neck tank tops for a school in India, (brown so they don't show dust & dirt) & the fish & chip baby sets.
I'm trying to learn to quilt but I do love to knit & crochet especially in winter.
Chris, this is so lovely!
Your. Blanket is gorgeous. I love Lucy's patterns and cannot wait until the next one. I made Dunes this year for my daughter. I would love to go to Yarndale. I am like you I miss crocheting especially now winter in coming.
Have a nice weekend Chris.
