Ombre crochet blanket tahdah

Made this a few months ago for an old friend and his partner and little girl to snuggle into. I tried to get hints from pictures he had on Facebook if the colour scheme in their home.







This one was finished last week for a friend who has just given birth. I knew it was going to be a boy so choose spring boyish colours.






Ethan couldn't resist a snuggle in it!

Book lushness

Got this gorgeous book in the post from my sister today. I love amazon wish lists... it means I get something I like for birthdays. Btw my bday was last month - before you start singing!

Chicken, broccoli, pesto and cheese buns

Made the enriched dough recipe for my bread machine, used 3oz wholewheat flour and 6oz of white. Mixed 300gr shredded chicken, handful of cooked broccoli, 2 tbsp pesto, and handful of grated cheese together.  Rolled out the dough into a rectangle. Spread out the mixture.  Roll up and slightly pull.  Sprinkle some flour around the roll. Cut into 8 pieces and public in a warm place to rise for 20mins. Put in iven and switch on to 200/gm6. Cook for approx 30 mins. Check after 20 mins.

Allow to cool down before ripping apart and devouring heartily.

Getting closer to the end

Granny happy

A few more squares to go before the grand stitch up. Well, actually I think I'll crochet these together.
