Charlie's new 'Best Blankie'
Good morning dear readers. I thought I'd give you a bit of a break from my card projects today and share with you another project I completed recently.
My youngest grandson Charlie asked me to make him a new Blankie as his 'old faithful' is virtually falling apart. The Blankie (as I'm sure you know) is a very treasured posession at bedtime and when you're feeling a little poorly - snuggling up with it makes you feel so much better, don't you think?
Well, I took Charlie along to choose some yarn with which to create his new 'Best Blankie, and as you can see, he wanted a very bright and colourful item!
It's just a simple crocheted square, using each colour for as long as that ball of yarn lasted and with a simple scalloped edging. He was so pleased when I presented him with the finished item recently and Grandma gained a few extra 'brownie points' for being so 'clever' (smile....)
Thanks for dropping by today, hope you've enjoyed your visit. Til I see you next time - Happy Crafting!
