Lake Mist and Seashells

Amidst all the packing going on here, I managed to finish this C2C crochet blanket. I’ve been obsessed with these colors ever since I saw this yarn. It’s by Caron and it’s called Lake Mist. Fitting since these colors remind me of water. I was thinking more sea or ocean but I guess “lake” works well also.

I’m making a sister blanket using Caron yarn called “Seashells”. I can’t wait to see them both side by side.

Emilie’s Blanket

As soon as my daughter told me she was engaged and had a date to move out, I know I’d make her a blanket. The C2C stitch was chosen by her and she asked for a gentle, neutral color to match any decor in her new home.

I chose Red Heart Jumbo Saver yarn in soft white. I used a 4.5 mm hook and created her very first homemade keepsake item to start her life as a Mrs. I washed it in Woolite to soften it up and gave it to her on her wedding day.
