Hello my lovely friends π Thanks so much for stopping by, even though you must have felt a bit abandoned over the last few weeks. βΊοΈ
I’ve been quite busy with hook and yarn, and that’s what today’s post is about.
FiPs…I’m pretty certain that that’s not a ‘thing’ π It just sounds so nice in the title. I decided – for the sake of a pretty headline – that it will stand for ‘Finished Projects’.
And here they are…
The ‘Blue Skies’ Slouchy Hat
The ‘Falling Leaves’ Infinity Scarf (one of my personal favorites) π
If you like a closer look – it is now (with more pictures) in my brandnew Etsy Shop And a ‘ Newsboy/Cabbie’ Hat- Bear seemed to like it…even if he looks a bit grouchy π
The WiPs The Puzzle Poncho is coming along
The ‘Flower Meadow’ has been a bit neglected lately – but it moved toward the top of the list
New is another ‘Puzzle’ – I just don’t seem to be able to move away from them π
A few weeks ago I bought these gorgeous Caron cakes
They’re so pretty and beautifully soft…they are going to be something luscious for me! π
First I thought ‘Poncho’ – then I decided that I would much rather have a fabulous, funky sweater. With different stitches and shapes. This is what I have so far
One side and the start of the sleeve
I don’t know what happened here π I followed the instructions, double checked every stitch, and number…but it’s quite ‘ruffly’. I do love it though, so it can go to the bottom of the sweater, and be a quirky finish that just hangs about – probably surrounded by fringes. π€
I see some trial-and-error frogging in my future, but hopefully it’ll -eventually- turn into something pretty. π
That’s all for ‘WiPs in pictures’. I do have to make some smaller things for the store – like hats, headbands, dishcloths…but I don’t have anything to show there yet. π
A Tip for my Crochet Friends
Hopefully it’ll help you win every game of ‘Yarn Chicken’ π
Oh…one more thing – please join me in a ‘Dance of Joy’
I had my first crochet sales last week π
These pretties found a new home…
Yes…’Feronia’ went to live with someone else. My daughter’s first question was “Was the lady worthy?” π And I can wholeheartedly say ‘Yes’! π
This hat went home with her too
And ‘ Purple Delight’ is now warming the neck of a lovely friend of mine π
So…that’s all the news for today βΊοΈ
I hope to see you again soon π
