Lynnecrafts: April 2025

Hi all, I’m back for our weekly blog hop care of Sarahscraftshed Thanks for your good wishes last week. My lungs are improving but I’m now in the doldrums that reducing respiratory steroids dumps me in. Hey ho! It’s been 2 years since I had one and at least I avoided hospital this time.

I’ve two crochet projects on the go, a circle cardigan for my goddaughter and another pink and gold cardi for her elder daughter, supervised closely by Bella, who sends you all purrs.

I started doing this one with random colour changes but it was too messy. This shows the pattern, which is literally a big circle.

V. really loved the little waistcoat with a gold pattern on the pocket so I’ll add similar extras to this long sleeved cardi. .

And finally…..

Take care all, and happy WOYWW,

Hugs

Hi all, not much to show this week as I’m still suffering with my chest infection, so I haven’t been to art class. I was trying to rush through it and reducing the hated steroids too quickly, but I saw a doctor yesterday and I’m resting and taking it steady now.

I’ve been making and packing up twiddles to other members of the Facebook Handmade for Dementia group to make cannula sleeves.

Under Bella’s supervision of course.

I bought this yarn mainly to make cardigans for my godgrandaughter, of which I’ve made one. Now I’ve unearthed the notebook where I noted her measurements, I’ll be getting on with the second one. Still, it makes pretty flowers, too.

I might make a flower brooch to go with her cardi. She loved the gold accents in her first cardi so I guess I’d better add some to that, too. It’s much more of a feminine shade than I’d do for myself but Mademoiselle specified pink and gold. 😻💖

And finally…

There was a good crop of April fools yesterday morning:

The first one is very close to home:
