treble, treble, treble…

The building work is going well.  I can see the finished results although they are still a week away, and after that comes the decorating, the flooring and the tidying.  Oh goodness the tidying!  After that comes the cushions, lots and lots of cushions to crochet and sew together.  I am looking forward to it soooo very much.  I already have the colours in minds that I am going to use.  It will come of little surprise that purple features quite heavily, as does teal, burnt orange and rich deep berry and earth colours.  I can’t wait!  I have started some of the cushion covers, just some simple crocheted granny squares, similar to that I crocheted for my friend a while ago.  There is something really soothing about crocheting a granny-square; the repetitive nature of crocheting treble after treble after treble…

I am crocheting with Zauberball yarn, like with the last cushion I crocheted, but this one is going to be two large granny squares, rather than lots of smaller ones.  I love the colour change of the yarn.  I love the colours contrasting together.  I love the bursts of brightness against the deep purple tones…
