FO finished object - my second Honey cardigan from On The Hook by Truly Hooked in Koigu Wool from my Ottawa Oct '23 trip.
Swapped the mesh stitch design for an open shell to show off the colours of the variegated yarn. Very happy with this 💙🧡

These crochet & knit lapghan blankets went out on the wards last month at our local hospital - bringing a little joy to patients there. Second from top a collaborative blanket made by our crochet club teens - we start beginners off with granny squares. So rewarding making blankets for good causes 😊

Bank hol slow craft project - listening to an 80s playlist trying weaving for first time, using a loom from my childhood and written instructions. Don't think I ever even set up the warp "stringing of loom from front to back", the most time consuming part of the weaving process. But I have an atrocious memory so maybe I was banging out placemats and the like.. !?
