Crochet creations

I've taken this rare opportunity afforded to me by Robyn having a nap (not something she's done regularly since November 2010) to create a photo mosaic of my crochet creations. I just wanted to be able to see them altogether in a Pinterest* stylee to see if I had a specific style or colour fondness. I'm not sure that I do! As with most of my life I seem to be rather eclectic in my tastes! For example a playlist I created on my ipod recently feature David Bowie, Queen, Jimi Hendrix, Thin Lizzy, Take That, Robbie Williams (well th
at had to happen seeing as I was lucky enough to get a ticket for their recent Wembley gig!), the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, songs from the Glee soundtracks, Michael Jackson, Guns n Roses... etc etc etc!!
I should be trying to finish this crochet ripple blanket, as I started it last week for a friend who was rather heavily pregnant, now she's a Mummy to a little baby girl so I'd like to get it finished asap. I'm still a little worried that it seems a bit "boy-ish" in colour, despite the lovely peeps on Ravelry saying otherwise. I'm thinking that a yellow shell border or a crocheted daisy may girly-fy it a bit!!! But first I think I need to wake Sleeping Beauty so we can have some lunch, it's almost 2pm!!
*Pinterest - a great web/mobile app to create virtual pinboa
rds of all the great inspiration you find around the net. I've already made a couple of foodie items found there and employed a couple of household tips too. It's fab!!

Fellow yarn lovers can find me on Ravlery under the user name traceychorley, I look forward to seeing you there!
