Finished my first crochet blanket and I’m really pleased with it. As I’m a beginner it’s a small cat blanket for Rosie.  I absolutely loved making the granny circle squares.  I also loved making the frill.  Not so keen on joining it all up, mainly because I found it quite uncomfortable working with wool when the weather is hot even though it was on the table.  All the wool is from my stash, however I did have to make my first craft/sewing purchase of the year and spent £5 on some stitch markers to help with joining the squares. I don’t follow a pattern, I look on Pinterest for ideas and then as I’m a visual learner I went on YouTube to learn how to achieve it.
