Matching Crochet Blanket and Owl Pillow

I have been busily crocheting up a storm here at Hopscotch Lane. We have been having an unseasonably cool August so far. Yay!

Here is my newest set of crocheted goodness in my all time favorite colors.

 A simple crochet granny square blanket with a fun colorful border.

And a fun owl pillow. This is a new design and I really love it. I have many color combinations in mind that I cannot wait to try. Possibly one in Halloween colors???

I have a little confession to make. I may have put up my Halloween/Autumn Lemax village last week. I got a huge order from my favorite online store and could not wait more than 2 days to take everything out of the box and put it all up. I am anxiously waiting until at least after Labor Day to show it off :)

More Yellow

It's been yellow kinda week. I don't know what it is, I just can't get enough of it. Usually I am all about red and pink, but yellow has been looping around my hook lately.

 This is a super simple baby blanket. It's just a huge granny square, using my favorite granny square pattern. I did 20 rounds of 2 rows of color. Then I single crocheted all around the blanket with 3sc in each corner. The finished blanket measures about 22 inches square. Perfect for cuddling a baby!

Of course I had to make a matching owl using atergcrochet's amazing pattern!
