On crochet
On the weekend I finished my epic crochet project (otherwise known as the silliest crochet project ever undertaken), just in time for Christmas. It just needs a little bit of blocking I think, which I might do on the floor while my flatmate is away this week.
I don’t think I’ll make that particular idea again till I retire. I’m going to take a little hooky break, but then I am looking forward to getting back into smaller, more portable and finishable crochet projects, trying some new ideas and making some more things I can sell. I’ve bought a fair amount of wool on ebay recently (I need to fess up to a stint of being quite a yarn addict!) and now I have to turn it into things before I can buy any more.
I went along to the Finders Keepers markets the other weekend, and one of the radars I had up was my crochet radar, so here are some photos I surreptitiously snapped on my phone of crochet makings (I need to remember to hold the phone sideways when I use my polaroid app!).
Small crochet floor rug (or that is what they called it).
The top row of pins were actually miniscule little crochet flowers. I was impressed.
Granny square teapot cosies (there's about four if you look closely), and owl teapot cosies (the owls look a bit too much like old style macrami things to me, but they are sort of cute).
