Maria’s epic ball of yarn is no more. She was telling us it weighed one and a half kilos !! It had been made from all her left over bits of yarn and you can follow the story on the linked post. She has made a knee rug which was really colourful and edged in an interesting crochet post stitch border. Just the very thing to keep the drafts away as you work. She is now making a blanket which is very durable. It doesn’t have the give of the knee blanket. It has an interesting look because the pattern is like little flowers. You treble into one stitch and double crochet the next stitch. It would make a good base cover for a bassinet, a little mat, a seat cover.
Since this pattern gives you a strong fabric then it would make good coasters, place mats and bags. Maria and her epic ball of yarn have taught us a lot. She can do the finest of fine work and the most intricate of intricate of work. She can use whatever yarn suits her but she took off on a creative adventure with her variegated ball of yarn made from oddments and has shown us all that you can be creativeย and inspired no matter what. You just have to have faith in yourself and your journey.
