Lily Pond Crochet-along

Don't faint with shock, after being an errant blogger for the last month or so this is my second post in a day.


The reason for this double post today is because I put the last stitch into my Lily Pond CAL last evening and have been out today to photograph it. For those of you that don't know, Stylecraft have been running this CAL designed by Jane Crowfoot by releasing it in eight parts over the last few months. 


Never one to ignore a crochet challenge I couldn't wait to get started back at the beginning of April and here we are three months later with a completed blanket. I must say that there was a time when I didn't think I would ever finish it, the amount of ends to sew in was a huge task, this is never my favourite part of a project and I am glad that I did this as I went along rather than leave them all to the end.


So at the beginning of April I started with this ...

and on 18th July the final stitch of the border was completed, the last of the ends sewn in and another blanket completed.

I must say that I am so pleased I kept up with the fortnightly releases so that I didn't have a herculean task at the end. There was a lot of work in this project but the finished blanket is well worth all the effort I put into it. Now which of the projects I have lined up shall I start on next?
