Crocheted thomas blanket I'm working on.

Thomas the tank engine blanket.


I'm almost done with this. I've been working on it for about 4 months now. I still have to crochet the top part with the words on it. This is turning out better then I thought it would. My son likes thomas the tank engine, but he is into transformers more now. I'm just hoping that when I get this finished he will still like it. I'll take another picture when I get finished with it. Might be another 4 months or so. Haha. Hopefully next time I can take a better picture though. this one turned out a bit dark. My digital camera batteries were ouot. So I had to charge them. I will take another picture when I finish this though. I wasn't sure if this was going to fit my sons bed. I made another blanket using a smaller crochet hook, or was it the same size. Not sure, but i'm using a H/8 - 5.00 MM hook. It looks to be short, but I have the letters I still have to add and if i have to I can add some more light blue on the bottom.
Now this one on the left. I made this for him a few years ago. I used a small hook for it. but it turned out to be more of a bably blanket. I'm making another one like this one, but bigger. Course I've got 3 or more other projects I'm making and I'm working on this one once in a while. It should be doubled this size though. I'm just hoping my boy can still use the blanket though. He likes it though.
I'm working on a Cardigan? To. I don't make clothes to often because the size are more tricky for me to do. This one looks like it might be small for me, but I'll see rather or not it stretches so I can wear it. I'm thinkg of trying more clothes items though. Maybe even do some knitting to. I can do a basic knit. Purl, Have trouble with it, but I'm sure if I keep trying I'll get the hang of it. That's it for now. I'll write more later.
