Square blanket

Valentine throw

Working on my Valentine throw with Red Heart: Super Saber - Burgandy color.

Great bedspreads

I have bought a magazine that is full of Blanket and afghan and these are lovely and I wanted to share few pictures with you from this magazine. I have yet to make the first one but most of them are in my to do list as bedspread.
This is the cover of the magazine. Isn´t this cover incredible! A lot of work to put in it but the result should be a great reward. Such said, I have to confess this is not my style. Stripes and I are far from being lovers and so many colors spook me out.

 

and I am showing only few of them. This is a wave stitch bedspread.

 

Teresa from the art of crochet shows with much details how to do the Larksfoot stitch on you tube. It´s a go for this lovely purple and blue bedspread

 

I think this one may be a shell stitch but I am not sure as it look also as a wheel stitch. Will have to check the magazine that I do not have handy as we speak but these are my favorite colors though.

 

Another keeper. Is this a ripple stitch crochet aka weave basket stitch? or is it a lazy wave or Chevron stitch? So many names for this stitch that I am not gonna stretch much about it. When time comes I will know he!he! I love it!

And then one of my favorite. I will probably change these baby colors but still...it´s a keeper. oh! by the way this is a...oops! Got the name of the stitch on the tip of my tongue but....no...nothing. Can´t remember!

And...keeping them coming. This one I will do to and not as a blanket for sure. I might keep the same colors as they look claming and refreshing.

 

...and of course they would not leave this simple but yet beautiful granny square out of their choices. And I have to say that what I love the most with theses grannies is how they alternate two different sizes and yet manage to have a darning result.

 

Keep seing them in More bedspreads to enjoy!



More bedspreads to enjoy!

...And more bedspreads in the Filati magazine. Tell me if this isn´t one of the most beautiful cover ever. I will loose these colors but I already imagine the same in different shades of brown or beige or even gray.

And for those wanting a little bit more of a challenge...you are well served with cables and bobbles

...and more bobbles for you. I can only picture this one as a shawl or a scarve as it does not strike me as a bedspread or even and afghan or a small blanket.

The same as this one, but hey! I may cheer myself and do and afghan with it. After all these panes are very quick to make and I imagine it would take no more than 32 of them or 36 at the most. Maybe making the panes double in color will save you time.

 

More granny squares

 

 

 

This one in particular is not only too busy for my taste but further more in my opinion certain mix of colors does not let the stitches shine for themselves. So I wil pass on this one.

 

What about these lovely knitted panes with different textures. I just love them and I will probably change the colors to blue, pink, brown and yet have to decide on the last color.

 

 Definitely not for me

 

 Enjoy!
