Notes

20 Jan 2013: One months work and I love it. Probably took me 100 hours. Just have to do a few more rows of hdc for the border. I love it.

20 Dec 2012: I had to frog the rows I had done with the 4mm hook - it was just far too painful to work with and too stiff a fabric when hooked. So I started again with a 6mm hook. So far, so much better …

3 Sept 2012: Got the wool in the post today. Have to admit, not what I was expecting …

28 Aug 2012: This is what you get with
1) low mood
2) Chris Isaak’s Blue Hotel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zanYf6c-DpA)
3) Texere Yarn site summer sale; and
4) Biscuits and Jam Stripe Generator (http://biscuitsandjam.com/stripe_maker.php)
5) Little Woolie’s Stripy Blanket CAL (http://littlewoollie.blogspot.co.uk/p/mixed-stitch-stripe...)
