'Crochet keeps our hands busy so our minds can rest. It is a gift to help quiet the world around us, if even for a moment. To create -- and think of those we create for --is a quiet prayer of hope, love and dreams all wrapped up in a hook, a book and a ball of yarn. Author Anonymous. Thanks Cynthia.

Strawberries & Cream Challenge

Hi!

This is my first post here at SIBOL. I must tell I feel absolutely honoured to be able to participate.

This time I want to show you the first squares I have made for the project, I hope you like them. They are intended to belong to an Strawberries and Cream blanket.


The ideas for the stitches and distribution are taken from 200 Crochet Blocks book from Jan Eaton, but I have made changes and adapted them.

  4. Merchy, so love your beautiful squares. That little strawberry looks good enough to eat in the middle of your square. I love the crochet pattern you have used, it's very pretty.
