Crochet revisited

I am experimenting with Granny hexagons/squares. After choosing five colours of Artesano dk alpaca,  I'm making lots of circles:
Rondjes

I mount them up (to touch and admire the soft yarn and combination of colors) 
Stapel

That is the easy part. But now I can't choose between this:
Hexagon
and this:

Vierkantje
Desperately in need of help.

A room of my own

I have been waiting 20 years for this. But since my son has left the building to live on his own, I took over his room. With -ofcourse- still a bed for him if he wants to sleep over. 

Total studio
There is absolutely nothing more I need.
And the best thing of the room is the door:

You See? It is closed!

 
I enjoy working here in the evenings. I even picked up drawing again:
