Otherwise, I haven’t had much chance for crafting this week, as the storm on Sunday sprung a leak in our bedroom and I spent a lot of time moving clothes. It was a good reason for a sort out and the boot of the car is now full of clothes to be taken to the Sally Army drop off point. The builders came today and found some cracked concrete that allowed the rain in so it’s hopefully all fixed now.
Today I had a retinal check up so came home feeling woozy as the drops blurred my vision. All well and signed off now.
I added a baby’s hat to the cardis and bootees. Do you think the pompom’s too big?
I made it with two rings but I’ve now bought a pompom maker if I can work out how to use it. If anyone has any clear instructions, rather than poorly translated nonsense I’d be glad! I also bought buttons online from a shop in Staffordshire called Smart as a button. She deserves a shoutout for sending me extra buttons as a present, the white train buttons! In the evening I’ve been following a crochet CAL by Polly Plum, called Step 2 it.
It’s a corner to corner design made of trebles and granny stitch. Eventually, it becomes a rectangle but I’m not there yet.
I’m a bit disappointed by the yarn, the colours are in blocks rather than a brighter flow of colours but I’ll carry on.
I’ve some ideas for my sashiko square but more of that next week.
Bella’s always ready to model my crochet and sends you all purrs.
And finally, And turkeys voting for Xmas. I just don’t get it.
Hugs
