Yarn Review: Rico Creative Cotton Aran
Hello!
Soon as my most popular post to date is my Easy World Craft: Crochet, which was a super-quick review-style post. It has 24 page views to date so either you guys want me to stop blabbing so much or you like reviews: I'm going to take it a as the latter! Also, I said in my Reviews and other stuff post that I wanted you to tell me if I should do some more reviews: I didn't get any answers so I am just going to go ahead and do one! Just to say no-one is paying me to say anything or anything like that so this is just my honest opinion.
So the yarn I am reviewing is the Rico Creative Cotton Aran yarn and I am using it for the blanket that I am making. It is really soft and it works up beautifully. The only problem with it is it splits really easily which isn't ideal if you are trying to make a project speedily. Overall I would recumbent it but if you get frustrated with split yarn you might want to try something.

Organisation, updates and CHRISTMAS!!!!!
Hi!
Today I really want to organise my blog to make it clear when I will post and the sort of things I will be posting about so if you don't like something you can skip it! With my "10 of the most amazing" series, one will be posted once every 3 weeks on Fridays. For general updates (things like this!), those will be posted on Tuesdays, and I aim to to them 3 times a month so you know what I'm up to! Of course there will be random posts at random times and I'm hoping to do more DIY's soon!
Onto the updates section: on my crochet blanket I have finished all eight squares in the Rose shade and I am onto this gorgeous purple called Cardinal. If I haven't mentioned previously, the yarn I am using is Rico Creative Cotton (Aran) and here is the link to buy it: http://www.woolwarehouse.co.uk/creative-cotton-aran-black-90-50g. I have also done a really exciting craft project that I will be sharing with you very soon in form of a DIY!
Now, I adore Christmas. I think it is the best time of the year and I just always feel so happy when it comes around! I would really like to do a Christmassy series but I am a bit to late do do one this advent. Instead I will be doing a "12 days of craftmas" series starting on Christmas day (Thursday 25th December this year!) and ending on 5th January (a Monday this year!). In this series I will be posting a cute Christmas pattern to prepare for next year or maybe you were late on your Christmas presents!
