The middle section of the crochet blanket I currently work on is ready. The project is inspired by the vibrant colors of #Mexico - and is hopefully going to be shipped there some time soon!

I'm getting a right hankering to make an Argyle piece again since it's been a while. The main thing is finding the correct yarns that allow for planned colour pooling. I created this blanket with Red Heart Super Saver Pooling yarn, which is really good, but unfortunately not very easy to come across in the UK now and expensive when you do.
I wrote about my first foray into colour pooling on my blog if anyone is interested. It can be extremely frustrating at times, but also very satisfying once you get the hang of it. If I find a good yarn for planned pooling this time, I'll update it and let you know
EDIT: Unfortunately the site I linked to in my blog looks to be defunct now. So best to have a look at Marly Bird's video instead for a good explanation:

It's May and I will soon have made another successful trip around the Sun, so to celebrate, I am holding another #CazimodoCrochet competition for a free custom made crochet toy with free postage to anywhere in the world. The same rules apply as before:
1. You have to follow me
2. Post a photo of what you would like to have made with the hashtag #CazimodoCrochet
3. It can be anything you like as long as it is a single object.
I will choose the winner at random on the 31st of May.
If you entered the February competition, but did not win, then I'll automatically take your entry into account for this run, unless you prefer to change it, so be sure to let me know if that is the case.
I would post the photos from the last competition winning entry, but it's currently travelling to the USA so I want the new owner to have the fun of seeing her new toy first

Out sick and away from the computer helped my #crocheting this week ....
Another #crochet #wip is now completed. A #gingham style #throw using the #griddle #stitch and carrying the three #colors of #yarn along.
Super easy stitch although this pattern does, slightly, show the yarn being carried. Great pattern to work on when binge watching TV.
I might add another row or two on the border.

Sometimes I crochet things just for my own enjoyment and amusement. Like Puddleduck, a duck in a puddle His feet tuck into the hollows in the puddle so that they are hidden when he is "swimming".

I finished crocheting my poncho, just have to wash and block it and then I can wear it! I have a ball of wool left so am considering crocheting a matching sweater for my dog. The wool is cashmere and was quite expensive, but Yoda deserves some luxury .
