What's On Your Needles and Hooks in March 2023?

What's on your needles and hooks this month?

As we welcome the change of month and season, will your
colours /patterns/textures/appliques/embellishments reflect this, I wonder?
Will it be a month of completing projects....new yarn.....new patterns....new design ideas....or  something from yarn that has been lingering in your basket/bag?

The colour of the month is GREEN
Glorious green that makes me think of the new shoots of grass when our rains come (southern hemisphere) or the new branches/leaves sprouting on plants/trees and bulbs to herald the arrival of Spring (northern hemisphere). 
Looking forward to seeing as many shades as possible.
Of course, not forgetting that March 17th is St. Patrick's Day
.......so what ya'  waiting for? Get your green on.....hahaha....and please share your crafting with us, because YOU are an inspiration!

I enlarged it, too and totally agree with Chris. This is a lovely stitch....looks very solid and warm. LOVE the woven texture it creates.

Even when you are using up 'left-overs', Sharon, you create beautiful blankets/designs. Well done!!

Hello all x    I have had a lot of "life" going on around me and consequently needed some time away from this forum to help reset my headspace.   Logging in today and seeing what has been made this month, I have enjoyed viewing the makes and reading comments a lot.   

I have though not stopped knitting in any free time - so here's a recent all-in-one blanket I got to totally finishing.   It is Majestic Aran and was knit on 5mm needles.   No 62

So glad to see you back Karen, you have been missed! I love all your makes (and your friend Bev’s too), the colours are gorgeous in your blanket and the colours in Bev’s blanket is bright and beautiful….looking forward to seeing this lovely yarn in the future :)

.......and of course I made some hats!   I used a random ball of baby wool with different toning colours, and the others are knit using leftovers from the recent blanket.

LOVE the solid coloured bands...they match perfectly with the 'variegated' colourways of the hats.

My very good friend Bev has made this blanket and hats.    The vibrancy of the colours hasn't photographed as bright as they actually are.   The variegated wool is Nako Outlet DK which I bought on Ebay.   Between us we have a lot of it, so look out for possibly 4 more of these toned with different solid colours x
