One for the hookers

My crochet skills are nothing to write home about. However, there are over 3000 crochet patterns eligible to be worked in the GAL and just a few of them will be featured today.
First up is this super-cute blanket pattern, Zookeeper's blanket, by Justine Walley. Featuring 30 different animals, this is a gorgeous and unique baby blanket that any parent (and their baby) is sure to love.

The next design that caught my eye is Darleen Hopkins' Family Fun, a crocheted tic-tac-toe game (noughts and crosses for those of us this side of the pond!). What a brilliant idea for a summer outdoor game - take it to the beach or even just in the garden and if it gets sunscreen spilled on it, or drinks or ice cream splashes, it can just be washed to become as good as new again.

One thing I have used crochet for myself is dishcloths, but this is no simple single-crocheted square. Darling Dahlia by 10 Hours or Less is too pretty to wash dishes with!

For many people the word "crochet" conjures up images of granny square ponchos in glaring colours from the 1970s, but this beautiful modern crocheted poncho proves that that idea is totally outdated now. Vita Capelet by Lindsey Stephens is a gorgeous small poncho worked in fingering weight yarn, including a beading option for extra sparkle.

And finally, a crochet shawl pattern that makes me wish I had more skill with a hook, Soft as Butter by Sarah Jane Jackson is a large rectangular lace shawl for the experienced crocheter. An heirloom piece indeed.
