I have been busy crocheting a blankie for my Granddaughter(16yrs lol) I made a few blankets when they were small and over the years but she asked if I would make one in pinks especially hot pink-so here it is-the hook I have had for absolute years and all the wool was bought from Home Bargains. Now eldest Granddaughter has asked for one for her dog so now halfway through that one too. It measures 30" square.

Lovely blanket Carol…years since I crocheted but I really did enjoy it xxxx
This is pretty. Great that young people are enjoying hand crafted gifts. Thanks for joining AYLI challenge. Elaine
How beautiful.
This is gorgeous Carol, so bright and beautiful- had to smile that now you're making one for the dog! I have recently taught myself to crochet and have started making a granny square blanket- might be a while before I finish it as it's for a king size bed but I'm finding the process very relaxing- only one hook to lose down the back of the sofa, not 2 needles!

Forgot to say thank you for sharing at Crafty Catz!

Very pretty Carol, years since I did crochet. Love the colours, wondering now what colour the Dog will have.
So nice to see something a little different at Allsorts, many thanks for sharing.

It's just beautiful but now you will be inundated with requests lol. I am currently crocheting up all my left over wool into blankets of many colours for our local charity shop.
what a sweet and beautiful blanket Carol..........gr karin
Awww, I think that's so sweet that your granddaughters asked for blankies from Grandma! You are loved and needed, and you do beautiful work! My mom made countless lap blankets like this for nursing home patients, and eventually I got one, too. Yes, I cherish it. She's been gone many years.
What a lovely thing to make. I am sure she will treasure it for years xx
