time for a spot of fun.............

I've just finished tidying the house, washing dishes and putting laundry away so I think I deserve a little bit of me time. Comfy chair found and crochet hook at the ready, I have been trying to master colour change in crochet and have always loved the harlequin pattern written by Jules . This is my third attempt, my work is looking neater and I'm improving but still have away to go - what do you think.................



 back to concentrating - talk soon x

    This is beautiful Sue. I have a friend who made a cushion cover using this technique, the end product is well worth the concentrated effort. Cx

      Thank you Christina and what a good idea as a cushion is far less daunting than a blanket x

    Wow Sue I'm so impressed - I absolutely love Jules work but have never been brave enough to attempt it. You have done such a good job and the colours look gorgeous together.
