Zings Interchangeable Circular Needles


I treated myself to these beauties. Aren't they gorgeous? 🌈  My old circular needles were really in need of replacement.  These are the Knitpro Zings Interchangeable Circular Needles. ♥️

Tadpoles





We have tadpoles in our pond. I thought I'd share them to cheer you up.

Aren't they wonderful. 🐸

The Big Reveal: Sunny Sunflowers Blanket is complete

Here it is in all it's glory!  My completed Sunny Sunflowers Blanket.

Guaranteed to brighten up any setting and will be extra lovely in Autumn with it's complementing colours and cosy for those slightly fresher evenings.

This morning I updated the pattern to include the instructions to make the border.  You'll find the pattern for the blanket by clicking the tab Free and Charity Patterns at the top of the blog.

I'd love to see if you make your own blanket using this pattern, so please remember to tag me in on your posts and also use #sunnysunflowersblanket and #karenwiederholddesigns so others can find them.

Wishing you loads of fun if you choose to make your own blanket or project using the squares.

PS,  If you like this pattern and would like to show your appreciation, please gift a donation to your local Samaritans or Mental Health and Wellbeing Charities.  The work they do has a special place in my heart.  Thank you x

Weaving in ends

The joy of weaving in the ends.... oh goodness, it really is not my most favourite part of making a blanket.

Almost done though thanks to multiple mugs of tea, chocolate and comedy podcasts on iPlayer.

Sunny Sunflowers Blanket Progress

An update on the Sunny Sunflowers Blanket progress is that all the squares are finished and attached so now I'm working on the border.


Once the border is complete I will add the instructions for it to the pattern for the Sunny Sunflowers squares, available here.
