Floating on a Cloud of Colour

Hello dear crafty friends,

How are you? I thought I'd pop round just to say hello...  Not really a project to show. I'm abroad right now, but I prepared a little post before I left. I'd like to share this little colour pop with you.

It never seizes to amaze me how colours can invigorate me. They really brighten up my spirit. I'm sure many of you feel the same about colour. Or am I mistaken?

Maybe you'd like to float with me for a while on this cloud of colours...

Do you recognise my little Travel Blanket? I made it during my travels in Thailand earlier this year. Somehow it looks quite different here!

I sneaked in a copy of Molla Mills' Modern Crochet in this last pic. Such a wonderful crocheter and I was very pleased that her first book is translated into English! Are you familiar with her work & website? *click!*

    You're right, colour can be very invigorating, or calming, or inspiring, I love it. I've been thinking about making a blanket with squares made like yours, although it would be something new for me, I shall have to find the pattern and see if it's something I can manage. Wishing you a good weekend. CJ xx

    Heerlijke kleuren en een prachtige deken! Ik heb na een jaar ook mijn haaknaald weer opgepakt. Fijn om weer bezig te zijn.
