Day 109, Bavarian Crochet Quandry & Crochet Books



Excuse the legs - they are very pale and need a good tan - concentrate on the socks if you please!

My husband said....
 

..."why have you crocheted an odd pair of socks?"


I didn't even bother to explain!
 


They are so comfy!

NORO 70% Wool 30% Nylon

And now for my class today

My pupil brought in these books




I am tempted by the first two but not so much by the 3rd one, however who know shat will happen once I get on Amazon!!


Now for Bavarian Crochet
 

 The lovely "C" has made these Bavarian Squares
& wanted me to show her how to join them to make a "blocks" blanket.


I did look online but didn't find anything, so I had to come up with something for her & I came up with slip stitching across the top of one square edge (I did this in a different colour for the purpose of the demonstration, otherwise I would colour match)
 


And I also suggested bpslst (back post slip stitch) to match the Bavarian Crochet technique

With a slip stitch join in both cases

The suggestions have been made so now it's up to "C"
 


This arrived in the post today - another pupil brought her copy in the other day & I liked what I saw so I went online to order it!
 





And finally
Day 109
