Another charity blanket finished and not easy to photograph! This is a single bed size and will be going to a children's charity which is one of the many charities that my local crochet club make for. Thanks to Stacie who is behind the blanket on the stairs holding it up. #blanket #crochet #crochetblanket #charitymakes #charityblanket #charitycrochetblanket #grannysquares #zoknitandsew #366days #charitycrochet https://www.instagram.com/p/CGVKxxXByve/?igshid=m0kuwauw37gf

Todays little blanket is one I have finished off for a friend for a cat charity. My friend knitted some squares and gave them to me to sew up and put a border on. I was playing wool chicken with the black yarn and ended up with a tail of about 3" just enough to sew in. #catblanket #charitymakes #knittingandcrochet #knittedsquares #zoknitandsew #366days #charityblanket #animalblanket https://www.instagram.com/p/CEWLp9eFFcc/?igshid=b3k8qncpatrb

These crochet granny squares are the other charity #wip blanket that I am working on. These will all end up as 12" squares sewn together and then a border added. I am probably about half way. #charitycrochet #charitymakes #charitycrochetblanket #grannysquare #grannysquareblanket #zoknitandsew #366days #crochet #workinprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/CEPWkD2Byua/?igshid=ttx9p98971ie

A #wip charity blanket. The crochet club I belong to is making blankets for a children's paliative care ward and I was given the crochet squares in the second pic to see what I could do with them. Well after a little tweaking I have joined them together and have a base now for me to extend to the required single bed size. It may be a while before you see the finished item as I already have another blanket 'on the go'. #charitymakes #charitycrochet #charitycrochetblanket #crochet #crochetblanket #crochetsquares #366days https://www.instagram.com/p/CEMG_UslN7t/?igshid=izimcjgtrbec

#366days day 144, This is what I have been doing for charity during lockdown. This is a crocheted blanket for palliative care. I belong to a local charity crochet group and we were given the 4" 'African flower' hexagons in the centres of the squares you see here. I have just extended them to make it into a 1metre square. Unfortunately we have to wait until lockdown is over and it will be safe to send this blanket off. #charitycrochet #crochet #crochetblanket #charitymakes #whatdidyoudoinlockdown #zoknitandsew https://www.instagram.com/p/CAhoEwaFsc0/?igshid=1i2pbrf2zfgh

#366days day 114, I belong to a charity crochet group and even though we can't meet I have still set aside my Tuesday evenings to work on items for our usual charity groups. These charity groups will need us even more after lockdown because they are being overlooked with the current situation we are all in. These scarves will eventually be going to The Mission for Seafarers who provide help for Seafarers of all Nations who need it. These Seafarers may even be working on ships that are bringing vital goods to our shores! #scarves #scarf #charitymakes #charityscarves #charitycrochet #crochet #scrappyscarf #c2ccrochet #c2c #zoknitandsew https://www.instagram.com/p/B_UngVgFJeg/?igshid=cf75smlix0gv

#366days day 34, another C2C crochet dog blanket for charity. It is square in real life but the angle of the photo makes it look a bit wonky. It is made from two strands of yarn to give it a chunky feel and the colours are made up of scraps of yarn joined together to form a variegated yarn added to balls of leftover black yarn. It took me as long to weave in all the ends as it did to crochet it! #c2c #zoknitandsew #c2ccrochet #charitymakes #charitycrochet #dogblanket #charitydogblanket https://www.instagram.com/p/B8GlKBBFgNF/?igshid=10iyogp3om842
