Well done for finding a happy medium which is beautiful as well.Jodiebodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377052537742885631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-10795594365531915342014-12-19T02:30:41.673-08:002014-12-19T02:30:41.673-08:00Ah!

Ahh, a sleeveless vest, made from the Stone Washed yarn, that should be interesting! :) Yes, I guess you might have to experiment how to make the half squares. Wouldn't it be possible to connect the squares all round, (similar to crocheting in the round), so that you do not have side seams?<br />I guess it is a bit of trial and error, to see how it will work out with the maths and measurements! Good luck!!! (And looking forward to seeing it when you have finished it!)<br />I would really like to crochet a cardigan or jumper using the Stonewashed XL yarn soon, but first there are a number of things I need to get finished, including my huge Crochet blanket! ;)<br />Thanks also for your kind comments! :) xxIngrid K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10141647083619348121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-4838030671176075462014-12-12T14:56:48.025-08:002014-12-12T14:56:48.025-08:00Thank you, Gillian!! :) xxThank you, Gillian!! :) xxIngrid K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10141647083619348121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-84142749221365117302014-12-12T14:45:18.337-08:002014-12-12T14:45:18.337-08:00Hi Ingrid!

I'm making a vest (like a cardigan with no sleeves) with my squares :) Gonna be tricky though, since I need a couple of half-squares for the edges. I wonder how that will work out!<br />Happy crafting :) <br />CarmenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-12072542111352889762014-12-11T03:04:52.796-08:002014-12-11T03:04:52.796-08:00I love all the things you've made but those li...I love all the things you've made but those little baskets are so gorgeous.Gillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13234219836891799676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-59084204392592007542014-12-09T01:26:00.486-08:002014-12-09T01:26:00.486-08:00...And you, Gaia!

I'm glad you like my blog and I hope you will enjoy reading it! I fell in love with England when I first visited at the age of 13 and that's when I decided that I wanted to live there - which I turned into reality when I was 21! I'm sure if you really want something that much, you will do what you can to make it happen, maybe go back soon for a little holiday!? (Good luck!) I'm sure I will always go back, because for one thing, three of my grown children live there, and second, I will always love England.... <3 Have a good week! xxIngrid K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10141647083619348121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-43287788226907369042014-12-08T06:03:06.516-08:002014-12-08T06:03:06.516-08:00Hi Ingrid, it is quite a long time since I have be...Hi Ingrid, it is quite a long time since I have been to blogland because of several illnesses but I am feeling better now. You have been so creative since I last had a look at your blog! The colourful South Bay Shawlette - I really love the pattern - the knitted hats, your blanket and the little baskets and on and on and on.... All so very beautiful. Congratulations! I will write a post about my makes soon, promised!

What a lovely blog you have, I really like the crocheted baskets. <br /><br />And I'm so jealous that you went to England. I love England. 2 years ago I went for a schooltrip to London and since then I'm in love with England. It has been 2 years now and I still want to go back some time, but I haven't had the oppertunity to go there. <br /><br />Well, You have a new follower (ME) and I hope you will visit my blog some time in the future.<br /><br />Have a really nice Monday.<br /><br />Lovely greetings,<br />Emily<br />(casacreaemilia.blogspot.nl)casa crea d' emiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11274635100042812767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-38557314117737594742014-12-08T05:34:33.845-08:002014-12-08T05:34:33.845-08:00Hallo Christine!

You do not need to sew the lining, here are some ideas for alternatives: just put in some pretty fabric, or a fancy hankerchief/scarf and put in your little gift in the middle! (Or how about a small flannel and a piece of soap?) If you want to stick to crochet, you could also add 5 inside panels made of double crochet stitches which would make it more stable. Or add starch or glue to permanently make the basket more 'solid'. But most of all, have fun!! xxIngrid K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10141647083619348121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-36883004409780661572014-12-08T05:23:21.968-08:002014-12-08T05:23:21.968-08:00Hi Amalia, yes, they are easy enough to make and g...Hi Amalia, yes, they are easy enough to make and great when you need a little gift! ;) xxIngrid K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10141647083619348121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322502097819585224.post-47434904064918690562014-12-08T01:56:40.336-08:002014-12-08T01:56:40.336-08:00Hallo Ingrid!
