Crochet Ripple Blankie In Use!

I am having a complete 'Friday the 13th'  even though it is Thursday.  I have been busy crocheting tiny hats for 'Rainbows'.  The '10 minute pattern' is great even if it takes me 20 minutes.  I made two little hats in the Doctors waiting room today.  I was bitten by an insect about two or three weeks ago.  I did not feel it at the time and it has caused me no problems but then in the last couple of days my leg has been very hot and itchy and aching.  I have some antibiotics. . . that are going to kill or cure me!  I am feeling totally 'bleurghh'.  I decided to get my faithful crochet Ripple Blankie and lie on the sofa feeling sorry for myself for a while.  The dog, Lacey,  had other ideas!  She thinks she is a lap dog.  You can see she isn't!  She sits on my lap, sitting upright while I watch TV and I have to peer around her.  She also likes to be picked up and held, which is like weight lifting.  I was under the blanket when she crawled under and lay on me.  There was only so much of that I could stand, so admitted defeat.  She has not moved and is snoring soundly as I type.  She took a shine to this blanket while it was being made.  I think I need to crochet another blanket to avoid squabbles of this nature over the Winter.

  3. I'm sorry you spent time at the doctor's today :( No fun. I hope your crochet helps you pass the time and that you are able to enjoy the snuggle time with your Lacey, despite her size. I'm thinking you might need to make that second blanket!

  10. Too cute! And a good excuse to take the hook back in action!
    Advantage of having small dogs is I can have them all three with me under the blanket :-)

  13. Aw cute. Hope your leg is better, there have been some nasty bites this year. I had one on my head and sis had one on her leg. Thankfully not many wasps around this year.
