What's on Your Hooks and Needles in February 2025?
Well, as another month ticks over, some of us are enjoying (or enduring) another month of warmer weather and some of us are hoping that that warmth is 'just around the corner'.
The CoM (colour of the month) is.....
GREY/SILVER
Grey makes me think of cloudy/stormy days and cool temps.
Silver on the other hand makes me think of sparkle and shine
......squares made with either will surely shine in a blanket.
Please share, throughout the month, whatever is on your hooks and needles.

Thanks girls, being honest I almost pulled this out after I'd done about 5 boxes as I thought the grey was dulling down the vibrant variegated, but the more I knit the more I liked it. I think bordering with Kaboom! worked too, it's a quality yarn to handle. I bought it at Sheds of Wool at Choppington, which is a warehouse style place where you really need to 'mooch', but the prices are fantastic xx
OMG, that place looks like heaven on earth! What a fun place to spend a few hours, dreaming of all the wonderful things we could make from the special yarns we'd buy!
If I could only go there to shop...I would need a yarn ROOM to store all my purchases.
FAB UUUU LOUS
Super colourful, Karen. Another beauty.
Wow! This blanket is SOOO pretty, Karen! The colours are so lively, together. This would have to be one of my faves of yours. LOVE it!!
Another great blanket, Karen. All the color changes will keep the children looking and thinking. Gray was the perfect choice for the 2nd strand.
This is such a fun blanket with so much movement. Kudos to you for getting our COM - grey in this blanket with this wonderful yarn.
Looking at your squares Diane , grey is a great. Plourde.Love them all. I don't think I've ever met any one who doesn't love a teddy. No matter what age they are . Give him a big hug before he leaves on his travels.
