My Creative Space - Mod crochet

My Little One indulges in many stylistic fads - one of these is as an avid Mod fan. So, when she asked me to crochet a blanket for her and specified exactly how she wanted it, I was not surprised but also totally excited about her innovative idea... Ever seen a Mod blanket crocheted in the round before? I thought it a pretty funky idea :) I'm too impatient to leave posting about this until I've finished. I'm also so excited about how it's turning out now I've started on the navy so here it is through it's growth stages...





I think the Little One got her idea for a Mod blanket from the lovely Renilde who first crocheted her 'target' flat cushions. Pop over to Kirsty's at Kootoyoo for more creative spaces or to play along yourself.

    love the circular aspect, and the colours! Wish I knew how to crochet, but I'm not allowed to go anywhere near knitting needles, crochet or wool, cotton, etc. I turn into this mad person who can't do anything else until the project is complete. ie: will sit on couch for a whole day and knit. Madness! Hope you have a great weekend Kylie. xo
