MILs Surprise

22 February 2008 By Sun T. 6 In Crochet

My mother in law was admiring my blanket so I thought I would make her one of her own. Its colors are brighter and more jewel toned than the ones in my blanket, but I think that is better to keep her mood cheery as she battles Rheumatic fever and the unknown illness that ails her. This is made of 3 different colors of Red Heart. I have a few ideas on how this will grow out from the center, I can hardly wait to put them all into play. This is done with an I sized hook. The center is a motif I got from The Crochet Stitch Bible. It shouldn’t take me too long to make. I plan to give it to her as soon as it’s done. I don’t believe in waiting to give presents, especially if a person is ill. My grandmother said “Don’t give me flowers when I am dead. Give them to me now so I can enjoy them.” I live by that.
