Not quite a yarn-along Wednesday but..... The crochet squares pile is growing.... The count currently stands at 72, with 432 being the target for the planned blanket. Am getting much faster now- took me a while to get used to the yarn as it is a cotton blend which is very easy to stick the hook through the yarn and catch the odd strand out...
The next embroidery (cross stitch) project.... A little more challenging than the last one but quite enjoyable the pictures are building up quickly and the symmetry makes it have easier bits that don't need such religious chart counting!!!!
My other project has been working through the books that I have been laying down in order to have a well packed invigorating selection of literature for them - so a pile of Michael morpugo, Artemis Fowl/Eoin Colfer, Septimus Heap, Anthony Horowitz etc especially targeting things that may be more appealing to boys (obviously not excluding FI though). Recently bought the Hunger Games on the recommendation of a work colleague (before the film came out) and have just completed them-really enjoyed them , slightly different, quite a few twists some predictable some not, but an excellent read. MAking me want to see it at the cinema now-which is always a gamble I know."..
