Hmmm...technical problems.

I was half way through this post when I magically made everything disappear.  I reckon trial and many errors will be the way I go.

I felt so ashamed when I saw yesterday's photos of my craft corner, that I was galvanised into action.

Ta-dah!!

My second ever blanket. It's a giant granny square made of Stylecraft Special DK, worked on a 3.5mm hook. I love it apart from the one band of NEON ORANGE - it's marketed as 'Jaffa' which sounds appealing, but in reality more closely resembles a high visibility jacket.  However, it took me finishing off two rounds to realise it was yucky, and I didn't want to waste all the work!  Who would know such a grim and grotty, but very comfortable, chair is under there?
  

Behold my Ikea CD rack used for some of my Stylecraft stash. You can see an orange box of 4 ply yarns in the first cubby, for bear clothes.  I painted the cubbies green this summer and love the mellow colour.


This is the middle section of my cubbies.  The basket holds wool for bear bodies. On top are some of my craft books and pattern books. Just in front of my plants is a picture of my beloved boys. Amazingly, it is now 7 years old.

This is the end of the cubby unit. It holds yet more Stylecraft. Under the coffee table is a large basket with Stylecraft Aran.
On the bottom left of the photo you can just see 2 fabric organiser bins. I got them from Etsy a couple of years ago, and they are great for holding odds and ends of yarn.

Here are the bins in action. The one on the left has partly finished squares for a blanket for Adored Grandson. The one on the right has got little bits of yarn in bright colours, which will be added into the blanket.
