Sitting and reading for long periods can leave you a bit chilly in the winter, so since my last operation I’ve been making myself a crochet blanket using a pattern from a blog I found via craftgawker. It’s the first big crochet project I’ve made and, though it’s not perfect, it is cheerful and snuggly warm and perfect for cosying down in an arm-chair with a good book when it gets cold.
Winter is coming, as the Stark family are fond of saying, but I am prepared.

That looks lovely! I love reading under a warm blanket in cold weather. Here in Chicago, winter is indeed coming fast.
This blanket looks perfect for reading! I have a hello kitty one for that but sadly I don’t have the skill to make it myself so well done!
Thanks 🙂 When I got the hang of the stitches I would work on it watching the TV and it grew pretty quickly.
I’m all for a bit of BlanketWarmth altho’ I made mine I would love to have the knit and crochet know-how 🙂

Your blanket looks fabulous!! I’m so glad to see someone has used my tutorial to create their own rainbow. I love the pink in yours.
Do you mind if I share your post on my Facebook page?
Please do! I have such limited crochet experience and your blog made it all so easy. My little sister has asked me to make her one now!
