Crochet in the Green

I finished my dad's Christmas gift, the green crochet blanket. I forgot to take a pic, Da! if you're reading will ya take a picture and email it to me?

I'm working on some much needed dish cloths and will sew up some tea towels in the next few weeks. I've committed myself to making blankets for all the kids. I think I'll sew some, knit a few and crochet... to shake things up a little and help avoid boredom.

My first Crochet Blanket!

Ok, it's not knitting.... hence the "ROGUE" in the title.







































My plan is to line it with purple paisley cotton backing, and maybe adding a scalloped crochet edging when I'm done. Can't just leave it alone. Now be careful not too look too close at the squares as there are a few first ones that don't actually fit properly.... but like I said "It's My First" and I promised myself I wouldn't get all caught up on perfection.





















I'm onto a new one, a massive green wool/acrylic yarn that crochets in minutes..lol
