......doing a bit of this today if I get a chance. A really nice flowery pattern from one of those ace Japanese pattern books, I haven't made it before, but it isn't too hard to follow.
The kids have parent teacher interviews this afternoon so that will be a write off, and with school holidays starting tomorrow afternoon, I really should be taking this last day of aloneness to get the house into a semi state of order. Sigh.
On a more exciting note, I have been trying to kick my procrastinating ways and have actually sanded and repainted the little cabinet I bought for a song last year, and I have to say I am pretty pleased with it!!
It is a very colourful affair, and I still have a bit of finishing up to do, but I should have photos soon! Yay!

My kids go to a Steiner school and everyone is pretty crafty, so you CAN get away with knitting through a parent info night. This makes it all the more disappointing when you CAN'T knit through a parent teacher thing (damn).
ReplyDeleteyes, really great choice of colors:-)
ReplyDeleteThis is looking lovely! Gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely flower - I do love the things I see made from all those Japanese crochet books, just a little worried that I couldn't possibly understand them!
ReplyDeletehey Jules, long time no visit. I thought I was following your gorgeous blog but I guess I wasn't. Anyway, I've fixed all that now. I love all the stuff you've been making lately. The softies are especially cute.
ReplyDeleteI hope the kidlets got great reports and that you guys have a wonderful holiday.
Beautiful! I bought a Japanese Crochet book, but am having a hard time following. Any tips?
ReplyDeleteOkay, what is that gorgeous yarn/thread you are playing with? Give them some loving because it is amazing. Beautiful flower. Stunning.
