Baby blanket no1 {crochet}

Hello friends!
It seems I haven't popped into my own blog in ages!
The kids and I went to the reserve again last week, (twice in one week!). I really wanted to show them the beautiful flowers I saw on my own visit. We took a different path this time and so enjoyed our little walk up the mountain.

The air was crisp,with a slight chill but we saw a lot of flowers and butterflies.

Other than that, I finished my first baby boy blanket. It is for a friend who is due in February. Actually I have two friends due (both with boys) in February and I am also giving their baby showers! One next month and one in January, so I have a lot to plan for! I quite like how it turned out, even though, at first, I wasn't 100% convinced about adding the red, but really, without the red, I think it wouldn't "pop" like it does.

The other project is still a "work-in-progress" and is NOT a blanket, and I almost finished it, so I will reveal soon! Let's just say it will come in "handy"....

I am so enjoying my crochet at the moment.

I don't know what happened to Spring, it appeared briefly for about a week the beginning of September and then for a few days the middle of September and possibly a few days in October, otherwise we have had overcast, cloud and rain here and there. Most odd for this time of year! This week is another cool week with rain here and there (like today). So it's good weather to crochet!

The next project is another baby boy blanket, the color scheme of which is quite yummy and I am so excited to begin work on it! (will share the colors soon!)

Enjoying the fruits of my garden too...

What's the weather like in your corner of the world?
