This was made using dishcloth cotton. I know it should have been done in something finer, but as I’m still learning how to do Filet Crochet, I went for something chunkier! It measures 40cm x 27cm.

Crochet Sun Hat
I seem to be developing a sun hat fetish!! This one is crocheted and was very quick to make. I prefer the shape of this one, the knitted one was rather large. I used cotton, obviously, not much point in a sun hat if it isn’t cool! The pattern was taken from a book called ‘Learn To Crochet’ by Sue Whiting, which to be honest, didn’t help at all when I was learning to crochet. But it has some nice patterns in it.
I learned to crochet on the 11th June 2008, so I guess this is a celebration sun hat
I-cords
If you fancy a change from the usual knitted I-cord, why not try a crocheted one . I don’t know why I didn’t think of this technique as an alternative to knitting. Maybe because I haven’t crocheted for a while.
Excuse me while I have a senior moment
Four rows on my blankie…
and I’m still crocheting along!! I’ve also added the latest squares to the Tricolour Square Blankie page
And row number five is underway!
Another row!
I’ve finished another 7 squares and uploaded the pics to the Tricolour Square Blankie Page. I’m not going to join this row to the others until I get another colour yarn I’ve ordered, it won’t look right just tacking a few different colours on the last rows!
I had a little nap this afternoon under the 2 rows of the Blankie, it was wonderfully cozy, encourages me to get the rest finished asap
