Cardigan



 
This may look like a knitted cardigan - but it isn't! It is Tunisian crochet - which makes it thick and warm. The buttons are also homemade - from Fimo. I find they stand machine washing - and teething kittens. And, of course, it means I can make exactly the right buttons for my project.

My comfy corner

 
I love sitting in the garden - whenever the weather is good enough. But now it is autumn and next summer is a long, long way away!

Surprise Afghan


I have been making this in secret as a surprise gift for my husband. Today I got it finished. It is just a basic crochet ripple but I think he will like it. He has to keep his legs very warm when sitting as otherwise he gets cramp.

Hat


 
This is a double-layered, reversible hat, knitted in sock yarn. It should be very warm and cosy and fits well thanks to all the ribbing.

Delta Crochet

 
I have only just discovered the joys of delta crochet - crochet where the basic net is triangular. This is the first thing I have made in it. It is a pattern by Hartmutt Hass called Anushka Doily. I enjoyed making it and am delighted with the result.

Doily

 
I really like this doily that I just finished. It was fun to make and I like the look of it.
