.....A desperate need to.......

.....crochet.....

.....I haven't picked up my crochet hook for some time, well, quite a while actually, i have been more in love my knitting needles of late, happily clickety clacking away , and then all of a sudden i had this desperate need to crochet some Grannies.......

.....one minute clicketing and then the next hooking !.....

 

....not sure what happened there.....i have a theory though, anyone who has a love of yarn instantaneously enrols (unknowingly) into the granny gang......you can be quietly crafting away in your favourite crafty corner in your favourite cosie armchair, and then, a small voice starts to call you.......'graaaaannyyy.....graaaannyyy'......they call to you grannies,,,,,or is this just me!....

 

 

.....so down went the needles and up went the hook and of i went on a granny excursion.....

 

 

.....and at the end i had made.....a.....

 

 

 

 

......a rather lovely 'scrummy feather squishy' cushion.....

 

.....and i just love it.....

 

 

....its double sided, so i made 48 granny squares in all, then added my own wavy trim....

 

.....the trim could probably do with a little bit of blocking, but i just got too excited about getting it finished and stuffed with a feather cushion pad...........

 

 

 

.....so i feel much better now, the voices have stopped in my head and i can once again resume my knitting........until the next calling...

 

 

 

....and once again a finished piece of work is covered in cat.....
