Well here it is at the end of week 4.
It is going really well I think, each week there is a new pattern stitch to learn supplemented with some basic stitches. Week 2 was this little beauty. It tended to come out a bit tight so I took it back and re-did it using a size larger hook.
The following week we had the star stitch, I really enjoyed this one although I could have picked colours that photographed better! It does look better in real life honest.
Week 4 we had the bobble stitch which I was quite familiar with.
Then this week we had this little lovely, the wave. So here you have it up to date, ready and waiting for the next instalment on Saturday.
