I thought I would share my latest piece of crochet. I made this for mubbys cousins sons daughter.

Oh that's so pretty Maggs!
I think since I've been trying to learn crochet, I really admire the lovely work of others even more.

With the skills youv'e learnt already TB you could do this just trebles and doubles. So easy really.

Beautiful and such lovely pastels!!!!!

Very pretty pattern and colors!

The colors are so pretty in this! It's amazing!

It doesn't look easy though, with the colour changes and zigzag. One day Maggs I just might manage something so lovely, but I think I need to get my tension and neatness sorted first.
Yours gives a great effect together like that though.

It's beautiful

Thats really lovely

The pattern is just straight lines, the zig xag is formed by doing three stitches in a single stitch on the row below. Changing colours is easy as its done at end of rows. From what I have seen of your work you are easily able to acheive this.

Yes, those zigzaggy patterns are great as they look really nice and quite complicated, but they practically form themselves! It came out so pretty in your blanket maggs , and TB why don't you try a small piece, I'm sure you'll be surprised how easy it is!

Its beautiful!

What a pretty sight!
