A new Christmas Project

Time to start a new project and it seems the right time of year to do something Christmassy. Already had to unpick the left-hand reindeer's saddle as it was in the wrong place :-( Good progress being made but think there are not enough weeks left to get it done for this year.

Rudolph and Friends

A purchase from the Harrogate K&S Show last year. It's that time of year when you can start Christmas projects surely.

The Ends are in sight!

Here is the progress so far on the temperature blanket. I have changed how I join them together slightly between the bottom two rows of squares - hopefully it will not make much difference but it did seem like I was trying to join a longer piece to a shorter piece by about a square's width. But as it is my first crochet project, it is a learning curve so it doesn't and will not have to be perfect will it?

And here is the reverse - oh my, all those ends to sew in. Could be taking it along to the next knitting group where hopefully I will not notice the monotonous task whilst chatting and listening to the other ladies.

Wash Day

Fairly rubbish picture but you get the idea - this is the Nile and the fox picture from ages ago soaking in the suds - another step nearer to being hung on the wall.

The Last Picture

At long last here is the last individual picture from the Nile - just got to wash and get it framed now. Although I thought it was done, I did find a few odd stitches missing in the river itself and one or two other bits but a small amount of time whilst watching tv soon rectified this.

Almost there

One of the last Nile pictures - not many more left now. :-)

Another Nile Picture

 

Back to the Nile for another picture. This was one of the last ones to do and has been done for some time. I just need to  find a camera or batteries that will take decent photos so I can display some more pictures of the remaining bits.
