A Doily A Day...

Hello & wow, it has been such a long time.
I missed crocheting and blogging.
But I have been catching up with the first...

I realised I had not been making doilies for quite a while.
Well, that has been tackled now.

What else to tell?
My Giant Granny Square had become truly giant over the last couple of days. It measures 2.20 x 2,20 metres and I'm not stopping yet. ;-) Hope to show it to you soon.

I have been making cowls and shawls. More about those soon in another post. And oh yes, I still have to finish my mini-series about Portugal as a crochet travel destination.

Anyway, I guess I only want to say I'm back blogging
and it's lovely to have you here, thanks!
Have a lovely, crafty day & take care.
