What stitch is this? I've only really mastered the single stitch My holes aren't that big and my stitching seems tight so the blankie isn't that soft. Spose it's wind-tight!

 

[YoungNImum]

thanks i love doing it more so than knitting, i find it relaxing. and ever since i made that horse (my first attempt) iv been asked to make 3 more for family members. he's from Oldham, but moved here 5years ago.

crochet straight rows of shells thats what the stitch is called ( sets of 3 double crochets each) sets of 3 double crochets separated by a chain one. This is something very easy to do, even if you do not have any knowledge of the granny square.

It's my b'day and having the loveliest day hubby woke me up with a huge bunch of flowers, had quite a nice day at work, moved back to my Ma n pa's tonight so that hubby can spend the weekend fitting our new bathroom so I am currently in the bath surrounded head high by bubbles listening to lovely music n baby is jumping around inside me I think it could be the best birthday ever I'm getting old

 

[Asher]

I went to John Lewis today and bought bedding for the crib and carry cot, but also from clearance... A knitting bag!! Now I really look like I can do it!!

i had my diabetes test yesterday the drink was vile! i had to take small gulps and hold my breath to stop myself bringing it back up, it didnt help that it was the color of pee :S they also had real trouble finding my veins to take the blood they needed, i was due to have 3 blood samples taking and got pricked 8 times cause they kept missing veins and ended up taking it from the back of my hand at one point which wasnt very nice. anyway they said i will got a phone call if i failed then i need to attend the diabetes clinic on Wednesday fingers tightly crossed i don't fail

on the plus side got some lovely burnt orange wool today just have to decided what to crochet now lol

28wks today

 

[YoungNImum]

[WannaBtheMum]

How are you all coping with the weather? I am not finding the heat a major problem except my feet have started swelling, I have cankles for the first time!!! At the midwife tomorrow so will have to mention it to her. Hope you are all coping

 

[YoungNImum]

im enjoying that the kids can run about in there summer clothes for a change, iv been feeling pretty sweaty tho which isnt very pleasant, but enjoying the heat while its lasting.

I rang doctors about my whopping cough jab, so have that in 2 weeks time as only appointment available, back at the hospital on the 25th to see the consultant&scan, then get my anti D jab, then will find out if iv to go back for anymore appointments before baby arrives

 

[Asher]

I'm the same as you wannab! I love the warm weather, but not when I have to be at work in it! Yesterday was lovely, sat in the garden doing my crocheting, with my feet in the kids paddling pool. Today was not, sat in a boiling hot clinic room with no opening windows and one crappy fan!!
