  Hello all, I bet you’re wondering where I’ve been? Well weeks 7&8 took me quite a while to complete, as you’ll see it’s huge, and I’ve been quite busy with other things recently so been unable to spend as much time on it as I would’ve liked too.
  
  I can’t believe it’s done, those rounds for the border felt like I was never going to finish, but last night I did.
  
  What do you think?
  Of course I couldn’t take any decent pictures without the schnauzers getting in on the act. I have a feeling they will be using it more than me. I cannot wait to go camping and fight them for it.
  
  Thank you Eleonora at Coastal Crochet for this amazing pattern and sharing it with the world. There have been so many people crocheting along together on it this year from all around the world with some amazing colours in some fantastic settings.
  
  What a wonderful journey out of lockdown.
  
  Take care everyone, see you all soon and thank you for reading.

- Picnic on the Beach Blanket – Week 6

  Apr 6th
  Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a lovely long Easter break? Who ate their body weight in chocolate? Or drank way more than they should’ve?
  
  I spent mine decorating, garden tidying and week 6 of my blanket was completed yesterday. Back to work for me tomorrow so I plan to relax and not do much today to mentally prepare ha ha.
  
  This week we added more to the side panels and it was all about the hearts and sunsets. Look at those sunsets I loved making them and they look amazing.
  I don’t think there are many weeks left now it’s gone so quickly, but I can’t wait to see what this weeks instalment will be. Roll on Friday.
  
  It’s a short week for most here in the UK this week so enjoy it whatever you’re doing, thanks for reading.
  
  Take Care, Marie x x

- Easter Lap Blanket
  
  Posted at 10:01 am by Marie King
  
  Apr 3rd
  Good morning I hope you’re having a great long weekend so far?
  At early hours this morning I finally finished my Easter Lap Blanket, just in time, couldn’t finish a Easter blanket after the event had gone could I?
  What do you think?
  I love the colours and the textures of the different stitches together. The kit was from The Knitting Network using my favourite Style craft special DK yarn and the pattern was a women’s weekly one.
  
  It was hard going and took a while, especially that border, 11 rounds PHEW, I never thought I would finish it.
  
  Thank you for reading and enjoy the rest of the weekend and don’t eat too much chocolate ha ha.
  
  Take Care

- Picnic on the Beach Blanket – Week 5
  
  Posted at 8:55 pm by Marie King
  
  Mar 31st
  Evening everyone, are you all well? It’s been absolutely beautiful the last few days with record breaking temperatures here in the UK. Perfect weather for this blanket.
  
  As predicted it was back to the Tunisian gingham squares x four this week to fill in those corners. I struggled to get them big enough gotta be honest. Several attempts with increasing hook sizes to get there eventually.
  
  I did need to stretch them to make them fit the blanket but I managed and think they look ok. Put it this way I wasn’t doing them again after all that so they were going to fit no matter what, ha ha.
  My attempts
  You can just see where it’s a little too small.
  I do love this effect though, if it wasn’t for all those ends I would consider making a large gingham blanket.
  
  Thank you for reading today, enjoy the rest of your week
  Take Care

  Happy Saturday hope you’re all well and safe?
  That’s another week done and how much fun was this , creating Sand Castles, kites and shells. Three key things on the beach right? Can you see them? was a fiddly week but well worth it.
  
  I think I can figure out what’s coming up next week, can you? If I’m right then OMG all those ends x 4 *sigh*
  
  Even so I cannot wait, roll on Friday, we seem to flying through it this year which is good as I am so looking forward to finishing and getting it ready for camping trips as soon as we can again.
  
  I hope you are enjoying the journey as much as me, thank you for reading, enjoy your weekend.
  Take care, Marie x x x

  Evening all, I was late starting this weeks instalment. Had emergency vet trips all weekend so didn’t get chance to print off the pattern until Sunday to make a start.
  Doggie is all well and on the mend now, thankfully, in case you were wondering.
  
  So week 3 is all about picnic food and who would have thought you could create food with yarn in a blanket. Thank you Coastal Crochet you really do excel every year.
  We have apples, blackberries and cupcakes, can you see them?
  
  Absolutely loved creating this weeks delicious delights, doesn’t it look fabulous?
  Roll on Friday for week 4 can’t wait to see what she has in store for us next.
  
  Take care and thank you for reading.

  Hello and Happy Mother’s Day, hope all you mums out here are being deservedly spoilt.
  I’ve had a busy time of it recently as you have probably noticed with all my blog spam (sorry not sorry.
  
  There is no better feeling than when someone reaches out to you after seeing your work online and being asked to make them something. Especially when you read “I have seen your work online and know you are the one to make me what I want”
  After smiling upon reading this you do take a moment to think oh no what do they want? Ha ha
  
  This one however I couldn’t wait to start it. I ordered the yarn straight away and eagerly anticipated it’s arrival and always The Knitting Network did not disappoint.
  
  I have never worked with flutterby yarn before but as soon as I felt it I immediately knew why it was used for the puffin. My goodness its so soft, not great to work with though (black ugh). On the black sections of the pattern I couldn’t see the stitches most of the time I had to feel my way with the hook.
  
  Pattern by Olives Toy Box and was super easy to follow.
  Scheepjes Catona cotton
  James C Brett Flutterby Chunky with a 3 / 4mm hook used.
  This beautiful comforter will be on it’s way to it’s new home soon to await the arrival of it’s new forever friend.
  
  I hope you have enjoyed reading today, take care and enjoy the rest of your day whatever you are doing and I will be back with you soon.

- Picnic on the Beach Blanket CAL Week 2
  
  Posted at 5:58 pm by Marie King
  
  Mar 11th
  Well I made a right hash of this week, don’t know what’s wrong with me. Long story short I did one of the side panels waves in the back loops of each row rather than just the colour change rows.
  What a muppet, It wasn’t till I started the second side that I realised so then I had the mental battle of shall I re do it all?
  
  I decided to carry on with the second side panel and see how bad it would look, turns out it’s more noticeable on the reverse of the blanket so I decided to leave it.
  
  Teach me for wizzing through it like I know what I’m doing won’t it ha ha.
  It’s week 3 already tomorrow so lets see what I can bugger up this week, nothing I hope.
  
  Thank you as always for reading, take care and have a lovely weekend. I will be back with week 3 very soon.

- Picnic on the Beach Blanket Week 1
  
  Posted at 5:35 pm by Marie King
  
  Mar 11th
  I am a little late on my blog catch ups on this one this year, yes it is that time again for the annual crochet along with Coastal Crochet. I love Eleonora’s CALs because I always learn something new and week 1 was no exception. This year the option of colours was summer or Autumn so I opted for Autumn as it has my favourite colour in, can you guess it?
  
  Just look at this Tunisian Entrelac crocheted gingham square to start off this years CAL. So yes you could say I learnt something new straight away.
  I was a little worried as I have never really tried Tunisian crochet until recently with not great results I have to confess. I shouldn’t have been, She always does great tutorial videos to support each of her blankets, so I watched studied and off I went.
  
  I looks so effective doesn’t it? But oh my goodness look at all those ends, I think it took longer to weave all those in than it did the whole square itself.
  I did make quite a big error on one row but by the time I’d noticed it I’d almost done so I wasn’t frogging it. I wonder if anyone spots it?
  
  Basket Weave (Ugh) love the effect, it hates me. I always lose my way with it and forget to change direction and always end up re doing it and yes this time was no exception. Looks great though and week 2 is already complete so blog will follow soon.
  Thank you for reading and watch this space for week 2.
  Love you all
  Marie @cosycrochetbymarie

- More Baby Blankets
  
  Posted at 5:05 pm by Marie King
  
  Mar 11th
  With yet more BnM baby yarn.
  
  So I couldn’t resist, yet more baby yarn spotted and brought from BnM (UK) so I just had to make my favourite baby blanket again.
  I got home and wound it into cakes straight away not knowing how this would turn out I made a start.
  
  This yarn was so nice to work with and as you know I do love this pattern so I wizzed through the first bobble heart section and looked at the way the colours started to build and loved it.
  
  Of course there was enough left over to make an Octopus to.
  
  What do you think?
  Beautiful isn’t it? It didn’t last long and is now on it’s way overseas awaiting the arrival of a new bundle of joy into this world. Cannot wait to see pictures of baby all snuggled.
  
  Thank you for reading, take care and stay safe
