One a Day - Tuesday Tallies - Ta Dah!

Yay it's Tuesday! That can only mean one thing - time to like up with Carole over at Gingerbread Girl for our Tuesday Tallies


This week, I have been a busy little beaver on my cushion cover project!



Just finishing off the last few rounds on Sunday, then it was time to sew in all then ends........


Add a few buttons, And............... Ta Dah!  One completed cushion cover! I'm so chuffed with it!



Here it is looking lovely on my sofa!



Also looking pretty from behind!



So my finished tallies are 36 three round grannies on the front and one 18 round granny on the back.  I used a 4mm hook and the yarns I used were Sirdar Bonus DK in Hayfield White and Iced Pink and Stylecraft DK in Meadow.

I used the standard granny square pattern which can be found all over the Internet.

So it's onto the next project.  I think I'm going to complete my Rainbow Granny Stripe Scarf next, a few rows each day will work up in no time at all

Here's where I'm at with it - 30 rows, 2 of each colour. 7 colours in total.



I'm off to see how you've all be getting on!

    Your pillow is perfection. I love it. Your scarf will grow so quickly. Not sure I can stop myself doing one stripe a day in those colours.
