My new project!

Since I have been incapacitated, I have decided to start a new project, one that I could put down and pick up easily, with no pattern to follow as such, so this is what I found

Thank you Bella Dia, for keeping me sane at this time and giving me a new project to work on!

The foundation chain was 250 chains!!  I kept a safety pin handy and "pinned" every 50 chains as I didn't fancy counting that lot in one go.  Can you imagine?  198, 199, "Yes sweetie, I am fine thanks, no I don't need anything, but thanks for asking," "oh pants,"  1, 2, 3.....

I soon realised that a DC in the USA is a TC here - silly me, so I changed from UK DC to UK TC after a couple of rows - no one will notice & I wasn't going to unpick that lot!!

Can you see the first pink, yellow and lilac rows are in DC and then from the Green I have changed to TC?

This is how far I got on it yesterday.  I sowed in the tail ends on one side, but now I have started again today and my needle is downstairs.  It's too much effor to go down there now, so it will have to wait.

I will just start another Fuschia row and see how much it grows today!
