We went to Brugge and it was beautiful, although I couldn&#8217;t take my stitching with me, as the frame would be too\u00a0cumbersome for a three day trip. So I started another project! I had bought the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/152232535\/crochet-pattern-star-fruit-blanket-rug\">pattern<\/a> quite some time ago thinking &#8220;I will\u00a0start on this\u00a0sometime\u00a0soon&#8221;, but alas I didn&#8217;t. This trip was the time to start \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>Here you can see me starting on the train, I was quite pleased about how it came out. The colours are very vibrant and pretty, and the thread is easy to work with. I am using Rico Creative cotton (Aran).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Wrong.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1084\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Wrong-1000x750.jpg\" alt=\"Wrong\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Wrong-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Wrong-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Wrong-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Wrong.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After finishing the first row, I started to think about the colour variations and how they would flow in the big picture.

The best things ever for cutting threads on trips, are nail-clippers \ud83d\ude00 Security doesn&#8217;t\u00a0take them away and they are easy to carry.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Old.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-1\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1082\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Old-1000x675.jpg\" alt=\"Old\" width=\"720\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Old-1000x675.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Old-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Old-768x518.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eponases.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Old.jpg 1601w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now the colours are right \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p>This is how it looks like at the moment.
