Hello - how's it going?

The cauliflower are really getting going and will probably need pricking out soon.


Now it's the turn of the broccoli and calebrese.


The fences have been painted alongside the hoop house but even though it's sunny today it's a bit too cold to do the other side. I'm crocheting instead.

Here's the 'crazy' quarter of the blanket.


And this one is the 'log cabin' quarter.


I think I'll do a border around each section then a border around the whole thing. I had no original plan other than to use cool colours and different sizes and shapes of grannies. I'm going where the fancy takes me. It's taken me all over the place already!
Hello new follower. Thank you for joining in with the Virtual Spring Fair.

  10. I haven't got many seedlings yet, though it's only a matter of time now. The blanket is looking good, a sort of crazy paving pattern.
