Hi Elaine, just read your comment under my upsized squares. I'm sure your crocheting will be fine ! Just a couple of tips that I've learned along the way :-) It is sometimes necessary to do a bit of 'fudging' at the corners to make them right angles[or close to it] when crocheting around. Also I've found a hook size a bit smaller than the needles used helps to keep the square uniform.
Have fun....3 blankets worth of squares will keep you busy, busy !
Hi Elaine, the yarn is so beauiful and self - patterning, it is "Marathon Kids" by Katia wool company. I believe there are 6 or 7 varieties in color compositions. I think my next yarn will be the one with much blue and turquoise in it. xo
Hi Elaine, thanks so much for your compliments. I did not do window dressing in the past but I seem to have a good eye and talent for composition which I use as much as possible for the Knit a Square pictures. xoxo
Thank you for your lovely comments on my jackets. I really enjoy making them but have put them on hold to do some Cozy Jumpers instead as it is pattern of the month and felt I should really support it! I'll be making another jacket soon - the buttons are ready!!

Everyone's getting excited about the dolls.
Oh thank you Elaine I love the ribbon gift.
Thanks so much Elaine - is it going in the pattern book or on your page??

Yup, got it (ie, the msg). Oh... that's interesting about the tattoo. We don't have that rule here in the US.
