Ooh that’s a thought

 

[Anthea M]

Here it is decorated but I’m not sure whether I like it.

Do you think it would be better plain of with an alternative decoration like buttons or bows for example? TIA View attachment 328977View attachment 328978

Love it ! ( never to early to start with C ******** bling!!!)

Inside the bag is an Aldi canvas bag as it was just the right size. I am going to put odds and ends in it for my Sister-in-law and her hubby for Christmas.

Sorry for the awful photo. I didn't follow a pattern as such - saw a shape I liked on the Drops Designs website but it was for DK and so I had to do some jiggery pokery to get the size correct and I just made up the knit and purl pattern as I went along. It does need b;locking and pressing though.

My latest project was a Motorhome friendly Christmas Tree (ssshh not the C word). It’s small, light and unbreakable

I just need to decide how to decorate it now . View attachment 328965

How about teeny pom poms

 

[movan]

I like it. You can get tiny lights on copper wire, too, which should work.

Hi Crochet corner, can i come in too please?! I am quite new to crochet too but am very determined, i generally unravel more than i do but want to get to grips with patterns (as i am rubbish at making things up!) and trying to do some amigurumi animals for my grandaughter which aren't going too badly so far.........!

Thanks Janine. Yes.

Open to all ideas at the moment.

Is Buzz ok? And that 'naughty man' who eats all his food?

 

[snailtrailer]

Welcome The Dobbsters to our crochet/knitting/patchwork etc. group. Not at home at the moment with almost no internet connection. Did meet up with the co-ordinator Teddy and Monkey and two octopus passed, the little jelly is going to an angel. When I get home I’ll post pictures of the two quilts I’ve finished. Bye for now - off to lunch with eldest son

Funny - I found one of those chews this morning in the van and had a smile. Both Buzz and the naughty man are still misbehaving

... Seeingthe beautiful bouquet of flowers Badknee (mrs) Angela made for Anthea.. made me think again of a venture I tried but failed miserably. It was a good learning curve though and I know ll the many mistakes I made.. . (It's a hanging ball for want of a better name!).

 

[Ven]

My latest make - not sure whether to leave the pearls on or not? What do you think?

Joy movan I adapted it from this pattern and it makes up really quickly if it’s of any interest? https://mojimojidesign.com/2016/01/16/penny-the-pine-tree/

With essential oil tissues or similar inside and hung up it would make a lovely room fragrancer.

I am still doing my commit to knit hats but the current one might be the last. I'll need to find where to send them

My daughter bought me this book:
Amazon product ASIN 0992769000so I will be busy attempting another shawl, this one heavy duty! I am once I am sure of the techniques I will be able to adapt them for sweaters and the like. I love knot work of all varieties.

Likkle Christmas Tree number three. I’ve had an idea to adapt the pattern to a Santa so I’ll see how that goes. I’m hoping to do a Fayre nearer Christmas so trying to do things that might sell but don’t take too long.

My lovely bouquet of PPP flowers from Angela @

Mrs Badknee.
Beautiful and made with love!x

 

[movan]

Me too - I think it is part of growing old disgracefully ?

On a Facebook group that I belong to, we are making Luna Lapins from a book from The Works. When I bought the book, my Mother said that her Mother had made something similar when she was a girl in the 1930’s.

Here is my effort - it looks like a newborn Bambi ? I think it will look better when I have made some of the clothes for it. It’s all hand-stitched except for the ears.

Hi all.. Janine.. SUE bought this for me last week... Aaaaagh.. Opened it and dread starting as definitely not a sewer. Is it easier once I get started?

 

[movan]

Any ideas on how I can make similar ? I’m not great at sewing fiddly things.

Granddaughter loves her American Girl dolls (18 inches tall) I’ve got her an AG horse for her birthday but would like to attempt a riding outfit.
Boots I can buy on EBay, jodhpurs I can make from cutting up a pair of charity shop leggings. Cannot find a riding hat—— any ideas ? And is there an easy way to make the jacket ? Lapels and sleeves are making me nervous.

Hi sunshine
Did you manage a riding hat?

Put it this way, I made one for my mom and I am not in a hurry to make another!

Oh dear!!!

 

[Hollyberry]

Hi sunshine

Not tackled it yet—- managed to put it off until nearer Christmas.
I think I can make jodhpurs from a pair of leggings and have a white t shirt to cut up for a top. Can’t do jackets, sleeves too fiddly so I’m thinking black gilet made from felt. Riding boots I can buy on EBay, and will then have to try making the hat.
And knit two hats ( one for O, one for daughter) oh and a garland of knitted Christmas trees........

Mmm this is like getting A bit like “oh no the exam is tomorrow”
I have been casually making a few keyring thingeys, but the craft fair is in 2 weeks.
Production overdrive awaits.
Ps. None of them actually follow either “a” pattern or “the” pattern ? and the brown one is real Welsh woolly wool. Oh! And I have lost one - no idea ??‍
Might crochet a couple of these ?
Pps. I do have other stuff to sell

Hi all,

I stumbled across this group on Facebook, it’s a lovely idea if you want small projects, are a beginner or just like to do the occasional small project in between others.

This is the lovely young lady who set it up:

 

[Robert Clark]

Mrs C is currently crocheting a Unicorn

Extremely stressful as there isn’t a pic of a real life model
