Computer Says ‘No’ – Out of Stock!

So there I am, happy hookers, looking forward to getting on with my stripey blanket and then I find out that the two colours I am waiting for are still out of stock and won’t be here for a couple of weeks!


Don’t you just hate it when that happens!  So what to do – a dilemma me thinks.  No chance – start another project – after all, you can’t have too many hooky goodies on the go at once can you!

Plus all this yummy (extremely cheap) acrylic yarn arrived at my house last week – oops better not tell Mr Hippy!


So what’s a girl to do!


I’ll tell you exactly what I am going to do with it ….. Start one of those random blankets where each row is different.  I have seen some amazing ones on various websites and particularly the one below

which I found on Pinterest.  The very clever creator of this made it up as she went along, so I am planning to do the same – I may come unstuck as there might be maths involved but with my crochet stitch book in hand

how difficult can it be! Let’s hope I don’t regret that last statement.

Just to keep an eye on my progress, I have decided to have a bit of a stitch-along and give you a blow by blow account of progress!  Just click on the Pages (top right) where it says Random Stitch Blanket Step by Step.

Happy hooking
