Yarn Along

Joining in again today with Ginny from Small Things for the Yarn Along!!

I'm still working Roman's ripple blanket. I didn't get much done but I have woven in all the ends!! I thought it would be better to start the habit of doing this as I go along. For such a big blanket, it would have been a mother of a job at the end.


I have also started on some random Granny Squares to use up all my leftover yarn. I have been meaning to sew a TV Cozy, but then I was inspired by this one I saw over at Foxs Lane. I'm excited about it and think it will be a great pop of colour in our lounge room.



Today I am about to start reading The Slap by Christos Tsiolkas for my Book of the Month. I watched the series when it aired on ABC last year and it was fantastic. My brother has read the book and raved about it, so I am looking forward to it!

    That blanket is awesome! I always want to knit a blanket, but feel like it might take 10 years, so I always pass :-)

      I think it might take me 10 years!! It does get a bit boring sometimes but I keep envisioning how it will look on his bed and that keeps me going!

      My husband gets sick of all the balls of yarn floating around the house, so I thought it would be a good idea to use them up and cover his tv!!

    You have no idea how excited I am about the tv cozy.
    We love ours.
    It has made such a difference to the look of our home.
    Not a fan of that book tho.
    I'm interested to see how you go with it.

      Thanks Kate!

      I like having a project I can do in bits and pieces.

    What a beautiful blanket! I've never attacked such a big project...I'm afraid I'd give up before I could get it done!

    Now that's what I call a cozy! It would definitely bring some color to the TV while protecting it.

    I'm impressed that you have woven in the ends! The stripe blanket looks great so far.
