I'm home and normal service will now resume!
Wow what a fantastic holiday we had in Kefalonia
but it was
HOT HOT HOT !!!
yes the sea really was turquoise no edit here!
the people were so friendly and we saw many beautiful things
but just to show you I wasn't idle
I hooked up 2 new scarves for myself
using the pattern in this months Simply Crochet issue 22
this lovely pink scarf is made in Drops Fabel with a 4mm hook
using 3 x 50g balls and making it larger than the pattern for a bigger wrap
so now its back to school next week . . .
have you smelt it on the air?
there's definitely a nip and the nights are drawing in
I love the changing seasons
and it fills me with excitement
fairy lights candles socks and blankets
yes blankets
my favourite hooky pleasure is blanket making
and so my hooky thoughts are turning to snuggling under blankets
and making more cosy comforts for my home
I will be back with new blanket makes soon

Hi Heather
Your holiday looks lovely.
Inspired by the photo of your scarf, I decided to make one too using some Drops Fabel languishing in my stash which was bought at Yarndale last year.
Has your scarf softened at all. Mine is looking very pretty (although not yet complete) but I'm not sure it is soft enough to put round my neck at the moment.
Good to see you back, and I hope the return to school goes well. x
It looks as though your holiday was beautiful, the picture of the sea and the boats, stunning!! Your scarf is beautiful as well. I hope that you enjoy being home again and thinking about blanket making! xx
Oh my goodness what a lovely place to have a holiday....great colours in your scarf too, have a lovely week :) xxx
Glad you had a great holiday, we were supposed to be in Fiji 2 weeks ago! But the ruddy useless UK passport office took 8 wks to send our passports back!! We're going in November now. Like the shawl xx
Welcome home from what looks like a magnificent holiday. I love your scarf - really beautiful colours.
Welcome home Heather. Kefalonia is so beautiful and is our favourite holiday destination abroad. The colours of the landscape are so inspiring. Love the shawl xx
