WE'VE BEEN WORKING SO HARD on our Crochet projects over the past week or so .... here's a round-up of all your hard work ... Rachel's Thumbelina now has a hair-do, we've got completed bunnies 🐰 (Betty and Carol) bags, sunhats and a crocheted Summer top are work in progress - Dora's completed Tulip 🌷 stitch pencil ✏️ case (which inspired 3 other ladies to make one of their own), Frida's Flowers 💐 blanket hexagons (Kirsty and Anna) and 3 completed bags from Amy, Anna and Tracey at our Wednesday evening group - not to mention Bronson's lamb and earrings . I am still working on my crocheted caravan, ironing out any snags in the pattern and construction, to pave the way for our Caravanners - Bronson, Betty, Michelle and Claire xx

SUMMER PROJECTS ☀️ and
CHRISTMAS IN JULY 🎅 🤶 ....

Here's Anna Davidson finished ✅️ bag in Sweet Orchid with a cream trim, and Tracey Kohut (almost done) bag in Sage Green 💚 - absolutely beautiful work, ladies, and lots of other gorgeous 😍 colours coming up too - Cerise, Mint Green, Dark Beige and Moss Green - keep up the fantastic work: you're putting me to shame 🫠 😀 😊

CHRISTMAS IN JULY 🎅 🤶 ... oh crikey! It really isn't long at all until we hit July and, for those of you who want to take part, there will be a Christmas-themed project to take us through the month. Christmas 🎄 is my favourite time of year and is the season I enjoy most to crochet for, so I really do look forward to our "Christmas in July" hook up, as it's a little taster of what's to come (oh, you'll love it!!) ❤️

CARDIGAN ✔️

well, I can't lie ... Cardigangate has been the crochet WIP road least travelled. It has been a whopping 15/16 months since the project was started and I still have yet to finish my own ... I have bought several items of clothing that I have thought "Ooh, that will go with that cardigan I am making!!", like, who am I trying to kid here?!?!?! BUT, here's Adele Cawley-Rawdin modelling the slowest of S L O W fashion!!
ANYHOW, ages ago I bought some yarn (Stylecraft Colour Burst in Catherine Wheel) for a cardigan for Ivy and I have only gone and started it!! I am on row 9 of the yoke and I will post a pic 📸 when I have more to show xx Happy hooking everyone x
