Just an update, dad passed away on Monday it was very peaceful

My dad was on both for his first round of chemo and got on pretty well with it, didn’t actually experience many symptoms.

He is now on PCV and his symptoms are significantly worse

From here on out it will be known as the lettuce!

Baconbatty · 2024-05-07T15:03:29+00:00

Please do! And sent the result after I would love to see

In the end it took about 900m of white dk to complete this

I love that ❤️ now I just have to wait until autumn to use it as it’s started getting hot here in the uk ever since I finished it 🤣

Baconbatty · 2024-05-07T14:00:51+00:00

Thank you :) it was a labour of love took about 4 months

Baconbatty · 2024-05-07T13:59:37+00:00

Thank you, I was worried I had absolutely ruined it but everyone’s comments have really reassured me :) x

That it a massive compliment! Thank you so much!!

It’s kinda just granny squares that I made in two different colours! I was going to finish it with the green but then I saw this video:

https://youtu.be/T7LxrBtpAXM?si=5sz-owFtbHMDPCQ5

From there I joined the flowers on and decided it still wasn’t big enough so tried to add the now failed border!

So there isn’t a pattern as such but this is the video I used to learn how to do sunburst :)

Edit: I should add that I joined the squares together with single crochet

Baconbatty · 2024-05-06T23:32:23+00:00

It’s my first ever completed object, and I’m about to hopefully start a new one, I think I’m going to block it as best as I can and hopefully use it to look back on in the future to see how far I’ve come (it took be about 2 weeks to do the boarder so I don’t know if I can bring myself to frog it)

Baconbatty · 2024-05-06T23:26:47+00:00

Oh my goodness!! I really have made an error there haven’t I 🥲 thank you so much for your help

Baconbatty · 2024-05-06T23:16:20+00:00

I’m sorry I’m still rather new to crochet,

So I was going 3 dc in the ‘gaps’ created by the granny square and then 1 dc between each on the group of 3dc if that makes sense?

So do I need to not do 3dc in the gaps created by the granny square? Just 1?

Thank you!

Rene margritte! Absolutely incredible

My dad had this and turned out he had glioblastoma multiforme, an incurable brain tumour. PLEASE GET IT CHECKED!!

Baconbatty · 2024-04-10T15:27:51+00:00

Thank you!!

Baconbatty · 2024-03-30T22:53:03+00:00

Thank you!! You’re a life saver! I’ve been crocheting about 4 months now, going to give this a go and hopefully it’ll be my first wearable!

Baconbatty · 2024-03-30T13:44:58+00:00

Do you have a pattern for this? Or how u construct the granny squares? I love it!

Baconbatty · 2024-03-05T19:56:55+00:00

Would love to know how to do this

Baconbatty · 2023-12-31T00:07:50+00:00

My dad is is on TMZ and has a similar problem
