Yesterday I went to a nearby town with a Spotlight and was having a looky at the yarn section and saw some lovely coloured wools on sale for only $2 a ball
. I've been trying to make a blanket for the sofa all winter and have started a few of them but have either not liked them or realised I didn't have enough wool. So I knew I needed to actually get the wool to make this blanket which is actually the blanket that I have wanted all along! Oh my goodness the dilemma of making a decision this enormous was a great strain for me
however we were limited by our parking about to run out so I had to decide quickly and am glad I wasn't able to torture myself for too long as I'm thrilled with the colours that I ended up getting 
J and I had a play this morning and got a colour combo we like 
I've already started the first row too and I'm really looking forward to doing this project, although I understand it will be a long term one that may not be done til next winter 
however it is my first big planned project so that is cool 
As you may have seen from some of my photos I'm in the process of decorating the house with a very neutral, shabby beachy Frenchy kind of look but I'm hoping this won't clash but just add a little pop of colour. I have a few little things that do that already like a lamp shade that has lots of colour and bright flowers / plants. I kind of like the eclectic thing!
