mending

crochet blankets that need mending

Autumn is on it's way and I'm trying to get some mending done before I just decide to start wearing holey cardigans because "it's too cold and too darn late for mending - I'm just going to wear them, dammit."

So far, so good - I have mended two cardigans and taken up the hem on a new pair of Twenty8Twelve jeans. My next project is a couple of crocheted blankets I found at my parent's house. I think they were made by my dad's gran. Some of the wool has perished and left fragile strands that are barely holding it together. I'm not very experienced with crochet patterns, but I can make granny squares so I will attempt a rescue.
