Cape Town is the movie and fashion city because of the special "sea-light".Also, I was born at the end of August, a Virgo...which is an Earth zodiac sign. And I do love land more than sea. Maybe the reason. :DJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07867182645056667081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050225546724228862.post-60504202589571486112016-01-09T13:01:33.935+01:002016-01-09T13:01:33.935+01:00Thank you Trish!

I don't know. Last summer me and my husband had a trip to Belgium. We spent 5 days by the coast and I rented an appartment in the house just by the sea. 50m to the beach. It was really great to wake up every morning and look over the waves. And the sky was different every day. I saw the sunrise and sunset by the sea for the first day in my life!LillaBjörnCrochethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14475558450425602088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050225546724228862.post-9456127085268621982016-01-09T12:57:07.066+01:002016-01-09T12:57:07.066+01:00Thank you!

It's charming and lovely, which I'm sure is a refection of yourself. :-) Sadly, I am alone here for I do not share the same intense passion for the ocean as yourself and others, have expressed.Due to unforseen circumstances I had to move to one of the most beautiful ocean-side cities in the world, Cape Town , South Africa. I live almost on the beach! Those colourful huts of Dedri's, are in view each time I walk my dogs on the beach. I miss the "highlands" where I grew up. I am a veld and river and big sky girl. :-) My new blanket is called "Water For Trees" and emulates the colours of foliage, tree trunks and cool, tinkling streams running between them.For me the ocean is a large, wet, noisy, dangerous "thing"...with lots of "other things" in it that bite and eat you! Lol!However, the skies and clouds over the ocean has inspired many of my crochet projects...so it's not all bad. :-)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07867182645056667081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050225546724228862.post-26981577337428549732016-01-09T03:38:43.899+01:002016-01-09T03:38:43.899+01:00Beautiful blanket and a great story!

I can understand why you keep going back.😀<br />I think your English is excellent and you should be proud!<br />My trip to Denmark and Sweden made me very ashamed that I only speak one language, when so many around the world speak mine...and they do it very well.<br />Your blanket is going to be stunning. The long time making them is also why blankets are special and hopefully become heirlooms in the family....yes indeed, loved and enjoyed forever.<br />Thank you for sharing your passion for the sea and craft....the two combine beautifully.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07258084670724799649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050225546724228862.post-1175013984949447942016-01-09T00:47:26.072+01:002016-01-09T00:47:26.072+01:00Unfortunately there is no sea in the Czech Republi...Unfortunately there is no sea in the Czech Republic.

Depending on what you want to express, you can choose absolutely different yarn and get a unique result. The only difficulty is to state correct yardages in advance...
