Are you planning to make another blanket? Re: Blanket
I have made a couple of pram covers in the granny squares, but I think I am going to start a new double one, I am making a blanket at the moment using all the bright colours, not granny squares just continuous, I have called it my "I can sing a Rainbow" blanket I like making the squares its crocheting them all together Re: BlanketI see mine together which is fairly ok, but it's weaving in the ends that drives me mad, even though I do try to deal with them whilst crocheting.
There is a 'join as you go' method, but I don't like the end result that much Helen xx
3 children, 3 grandchildren, 3 chooks, 3 fish, a shrimp that thinks its a prawn and a dappy dog. http://www.acountrygrandma.blogspot.com Re: BlanketOh I havn't sewn any so maybe I need to have a go at that
Re: BlanketI usually join squares with a double crochet with the wrong sides together and go through the back loop from each stitch, it gives a really neat finish and is much nicer than trying to sew them together, and I agree with Helen that the JAYG seems to give a less firm finish....
Looking forward to seeing more of your work Re: BlanketYes Kate that is what I did, it is very neat, but did seem to take an age, but bearing in mind it is my first blanket, inspired by Helen of course, I think it went well
