Just add crochet

Hat hats hats........ Rasmus and Monet (who had literally just woken up) try to model my knit wear, Rasmus did his best to be human so he didn't miss out on the photo opportunity.

38 34 38 a little too burlesque?

Modelling my Edward top, even actually wearing a bra.

Not very model like but life like, trying to make it look like a real ladies a little bit of a chore.......this weekend job to give my mannequin a real figure.

Graffiti for skirts!

Vivacious has become a graffiti skirt,(prototype) this is the Dyslexic on and basically I decided that on a round who could tell what it actually said..........

So far so good, below £1.65 charity shop buy to complete this task huge acrylic




TOOOOOOOOOO MUCH ON

This mess applies to my life as well as my projects, I think that I actually need a time out.

Uni work OCA

I really must get on with some uni work this is going to be the longest ever chapter, I just can not come to terms with just how awful hand dying is if !!! if you just have no interest, I just want the end product and I totally respect the work that goes into the love of dying
I JUST DON'T LIKE IT!

Rhubarb and custard

Gets a waist band of huge proportion




Just how many projects should one have on the go at once, it occurred to me lately that I have not finished any thing in a while..........

And that the reason for this is I just keep moving on.....it's a little knit crazy.

Rich is very patient with the fact that a lot of the time there's no seats as I seem to spread out like ivy, I'm every where.

I need to get a grip, we need to fit a tree in here and I can't bring back out my knitted one, can I ?

It's just to much even by my standards (To much yarn,never?)

Simply threading the elastic through, with a darning needle.

Lamp Shade cover,

Clock cover,

Desk lamp cover,

Monday Crochet feeling/it's Tuesday......

Found these on a google search

Eco Fun Flower,

Made from fizzy drink can rings......(well I never!)
Fun and pretty cute, a tad dangerous in the making as they can be very sharp.
but I think that the flowers are a great design.

Especially great for a brooch/bag accessories.

Title Art for House wife's! (don't be put off)

Crochet lamp shade,

Make it your self from recycled doily's, I will add this to my ever increasing craft list of to-do's!

Dali Brooch, I have gone a brooch mad.

(I just love them)

And finally some pearls for my knit title;-).

A few week back I went to the Dali exhibition in Stockholm.

Ruby's and pearls here is my favourite piece from the exhibition.

Defiantly worth a peek while its still running.


Bag Crazy

I seem to be a hand bag production line,

I'm really enjoying making the bags

As stitch experimentation with crochet is one of my favourite things to do.

Unlike the dresses that take a lot of yarn the bags don't.

And they are excellent way of using you stash balls
(not that I have much of a stash but odds and ends I do.)

Well did!,

("I have made alot of bags")

Angel Bag
