Now that I have finished hand quilting my wonky houses quilt I've been able to do a little more crochet at night and make my pile slowly grow some more.
These photos were taken outside this evening and I love the way the sun has caught the corner of this colourful pile of crochet goodness.
I have 5 more of this size square to do. I have started to run out of the yellow when I began making this size which is why there is only one square with a tiny yellow centre. Every time I went to buy more wool I would forget which colour I needed and consequently have lots of white, orange and blue skeins. Tomorrow I must remember it is yellow I need.
So 5 more squares to go doesn't sound too bad does it, but in total I have '157' to go! Yes that number is a little daunting although to make it sound better they do get smaller in size as I go along so I should be able to whip up a few of the smaller squares in one evening. I'm still really enjoying working on this project, the portability of it and putting together different colour combinations. I know I will be definitely doing more crochet projects in the future.

What a lovely pile Catherine. What pattern are you using? I'd love to give crochet a go... but definitely don't need anymore WIP's :)
gorgeous look forward to following your prgress. I plan on eaching myself how to crochet over the next month or so. If I havn't got it sussed by the time my mum comes over from Aussie I'm going to get her to teach me.
You're doing so well, Catherine! It's going to be so colourful and wonderful. I know that my crocheted ripple blanket has quickly become the family favourite. It's just the way it clings to you. It's like being wrapped in a hug or something, hee.
They look gorgeous. So much glorious colour.
Love your gorgeous crochet squares! They look so yummy together
