Oh, I love this kind of knitting, it reminds me of clothes I had when I was little.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! xx
ReplyDeleteYour knitting is so beautiful! Have a nice weekend Linda.
ReplyDelete'Tis another pretty block. I do love fairisle patterns. When I was a wee li'l girl my mum always seemed to be knitting a fairisle garment for me.
ReplyDeleteLovely,very cute!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.:*
Pretty. That's like tapestry crochet where you have to carry the threads and which doesn't make any sense to me at all. I would probably end up with a big mess. :) Have a great weekend. Tammy
ReplyDeleteOh, beautyful - all of them. I like this coloured look! Have a great weekend! Sabine.
ReplyDeleteOh Linda, that is such a cute block! Are you going to make a blanket when they're all finished?
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, I hope you had a nice weekend! These blocks are really pretty.
