After some long days where I had a lot of sweets and finally finished the anniversary gift on cross stich for my girlfriend's birthday (nothing special :\, the pic of it it's this one bellow), I emerged myself again in crocheting.
I never said it before but I'm working on a blanket (Coperta Bouquet) from Idee a Crochet of Deagostini, which is a crochet magazine that started being released some months ago here on Italy. Here bellow there is the first edition where you can see the blanket I'm talking about:
I still don't know if I really will do a blanket out of it or maybe use some of the little squares and flowers to do a pillow cover or even something else. Truth is creating this little squares I can learn different techniques using single crochet and double crochet only, obtaining like this squares with different patterns. Also I can learn brand new forms to create dozens of flowers :)
Here is some of my progress:
Some turned out to be a little bigger than expected but if I would have done it too tight I wouldn't be able to work on it. Some were also hard to understand so I pretty much had to do it on my own. I still have another square + flower to work on which I expect to finish this week or the next hopefully :) Here is what I've done so far (I have to work it up until it has 15 cm):
This magazines are really good, besides awesome ideas from bag decorations and cardigans to amigurumi (crocheted/knitted stuffed toy), there is also "classes" where you learn how to crochet and advices about all kinds of stuff like creating a sample. It really helped me erase some doubts I had about crocheting.
Well, after all being said I now will go crocheting some more!
Happy crocheting everyone!
