Hi there! It’s long past Christmas but I hope you had a happy time – and a great New Year! We had a fairly quiet, relaxing holiday…..lots of time to watch films, read and crochet :-) We’ve got a new learner driver in the house on Christmas Eve…..he is so excited about it all! Lessons are going well so far….sure it won’t be long before he passes!
I’m still hooked on crochet – I love every second of it. I’ve got so many things going on in my head that I want to make – and a fair stash of yarn in all thicknesses, fibres and colours! Wow, I’m struggling to know where to put it all. I’ve found some super crochet blogs full of wonderful inspiration and fabulous creations. It’s great that there are folk out there that are happy to share their ideas, patterns, yarns etc…..it really helps a beginner like me. Thank goodness, too, for You Tube…..that’s helped me sooooo much.
Thought I’d show you some work in progress. It’s a bag…..I got the pattern from Lucy at Attic24…..her blog is incredible……! I’ve got one more handle to make and then some flowers before I sew all the ends in and put it together. I actually think that the inside looks quite nice…..love the pattern of the stitches…..and all those gorgeous colourful tails………….haha!
This is the inside…..lots of weaving in to do!
…..some other crochet bits and pieces…..
This ‘Flora Rabbit’ pattern is from Greedy For Colour Blog…..thanks for sharing!
…..a bowl made with bits of Bamboo yarn – pattern from Bunny Mummy…thanks again!
…..and finally, a crochet jar jacket…..pattern from Attic24….I just added some scallops to the top and a tie
I’m going to make a flower for it too
So, lots of crocheting going on….haha. Hope to get the bag finished over the next few days so hopefully I can post a picture of it next week along with photos of my WIP ripple blanket. Hopefully the weather will be kind over the weekend so that I can get out and try out my new lens! I missed my chance today – it was a perfect day for some great shots!
Thanks for stopping by – have a good weekend
