What's on Your Needles and Hooks in January 2025?

 
Happy New Year
to you all.
 
Well, as the clock ticks past midnight in my part of the world, 
we enter a new year of wonderful, warm crafting for 'our' children.
 
 
 
Starting the year off on a bright and cheery note....
The Colour of the Month (CoM) is
 
ORANGE

Thankfully, knitting and crocheting adds no calories....haha

  • A few more orange squares, 3 crochet, and 1 knitted "swingy" square.   The camera (again!) has strange ideas of color.  In reality the squares are not so garish.   And the knitted square looks a bit wonky, but it will behave once it is sewn into a blanket, and it will be square.13422810853?profile=RESIZE_584x

  • Completed blanket plus sift toys and managed to squeeze in 1 more CoM square. Still no way to rotate photos

    • LOVE your blanket, Diane! As always, your design and colour choices are SUPERB!! 

      LOVING all the stripes.  :))

      LOVE all your teddies, but the one on the far right with the yellow ribbon would have to be my fave. He looks so soft and plump. I just want to reach through the screen and give him a big, squishy hug....haha.

    • Terrific!  Love the blanket, but also the darling teddy family and their bright, cheerful square.

    • Oh Diane your knitting is always so sophisticated and imaginative.   Your fella looks to have a nice hairdo too 😊⭐

    • That's one fabulous blanket and the cutest toys Diane. The pics are the right way up for me. 

    • I've rotated them on my screen, Diane, but I don't know if that works on other people's!

      Fabulous work, as always, and such cute teddies.

      Amy, have you seen Diane's comments before that she doesn't have the rotate tab? I said you were the fixer.

       

  • This is a new (to me) knitting pattern called Seersucker Stitch. Strangely it looks almost identical to the crochet Granny Spike stitch I used for my Colour of the Month Squares.

    • That's a lovely new texture, Patricia.   Looks especially nice in that soft, but warm, shade of orange.

    • Patricia this is really delicate + so pretty.   I think there was a similar one in the 35 Squares collection ✔️. (no 5)
