Crochet blouse in Lily Yarn - Progress 1
Jul 13th, 2007 by admin
We wanted to go settle some payments at the bank today and so we went straight down to Greentown right after we sent Gordon to school. As it’s also lunch time, we dropped by my friend’s restaurant, The Filling Station, that serves really good Italian food at very affordable prices. Hubby finished his spaghetti and helped me feed Malcolm whilst i ate my lasagna.
I started work on this blouse about two nights back. As i said before, i’m in no hurry to get it done. But i was desperate to try out my new Clover crochet hooks. I’m using #2 for this piece. The hook is very light and smooth. I like it immediately and would recommend it to anyone who still have yet to buy their first set of crochet hooks. A set is all you need for all your crochet projects. Definitely a must-buy item.
The blouse in the book is a bit too loose for my liking. I’m making it more clingy to my body. As i’m so darn skinny, the flutter sleeves will be nice for a change. Lily Yarn is a great metallic yarn to work with, for both knitting and crochet projects. Comes in a vast array of colors to suit all skintones. It’s such a delightful and smooth yarn; so smooth that it’ll just slide off from the ball and get all tangled up. So, if you work with this yarn, be sure to put it inside a plastic bag.
