Afghan update and wool review

Well I have kept at it..... My Afghan that is. So far I have 3 Squares done and still enjoying it.
This is Square Two in progress and was quite annoying.... I did have a few cross words with it lol, It called for a Shell pattern like you use on Granny Squares except I had to chain one after every Treble and I kept forgetting arghhhh but I got there in the end and went onto Square Three;
This I am having a lovely time with. It is so nice to put stitches together that I have known for ages and get these lovely squares. Just hope I don't get bored before it's finished.

I am using my favourite wool here, it is Cygnet Grousemoor Chunky and is 75% Acrylic and 25% Wool which is just enough Wool to make it Special... as in soft and cuddly but not too much to have to be careful with washing. My kind of Wool :-) and I just love a Chunky as it Crochets up so neat and quick. 
The Colours I am using are 
A) Fushia
B) Rose
C) Thistle
D) Grey
E) Cream
I used the same wool here in a little project I whipped up in time for my Grandson
A separate Post to come but a little taster for you
