Hello @maddison @Gwynn @tyme @Eve7 @Former-Member @Shaz51 @Former-Member @hanami @Daisydreamer @Ellie4 and all forumites here.
I’m posting a photo of another beanie I’ve just completed for charity. This is beanie 29 for the donation pile for the Salvation Army I’m working on with 2 more to go until I reach my goal of 31 beanies that I’ve decided to do.
Take care!

Good afternoon @hanami @Gwynn @Former-Member @tyme @maddison @Daisydreamer @Former-Member and all crafty people here. Thanks for all the great comments about my beanies- much appreciated! See below for a photo of beanie 30 I completed on Thursday at my sisters house whilst waiting around for my housemate to have an appointment in the city. I’m sorry it’s upside down! I’m now working on beanie 31 as we speak.
This afternoon, I’ve decided that I’m going to spend some time working on my crochet granny square blanket as I lost my crochet hook on Thursday only to find out today that my housemate had brought a crochet kit for me to teach her how to crochet and it had the hook size (4.25mm) that I lost so I’m now borrowing it off her until my new one arrives in the mail that I ordered on Thursday night. I have a real need to crochet right now for some reason and I’m do ding that it’s making me feel calm, relaxed and centred if that’s the right word to use. There’s something about crocheting that’s different to knitting and I know I need to take a break from knitting my current adult charity blanket as I’m getting a little bored of it to be honest. Crocheting is calming and I like the process of moving the hook through the yarn (I only use acrylic as it’s all I can afford with the exemption of a cable scarf that I’m currently in the process of knitting for my housemate’s mother for the endless time after losing the wool in the last house move and that wool was purchased from Bendigo Woollen Mills as my housemate’s mother picked out the colour and the wool for me to knit for her) in order to make a blanket. It’s just something special and therapeutic that I enjoy and love if that’s possible. I’ll post a photo of my blanket later when I’m finished the section I want to complete- currently using orange wool in that section right now. I’m hoping to make the blanket big enough for me with the additional colour of lilac and then maybe white to add to my blanket.
Take care!
