Scandinavian throw

Today I am trying to finish the last square that I have received of the Scandinavian throw, its a square that you knit from one corner to the other, which gives diagonal stripes, pretty neat to see.
After that I will probably not be doing much knitting for a bit, as we are about to do an international move.
Above you will see what its going to look like :-)

Finished the Shaker Style Throw

Last night I finished the last rim of crocheting around the Shaker Style throw.
The pattern said to crochet 2 rounds, first one in the colour red and the second in the colour blue. We decided that it was more fun to do red-white-blue as this is also the Dutch flag and I must say, it looks really nice.
I had not made anything like that before, because its a large project and I prefer doing projects that I can oversee better, but it was lots of fun and it is simply totally finished and laying on our couch now as you can see above. I am pleased!
Please do click on the photograph to see the whole throw, as you only see one side of it now :-)
