Test pattern

Saw this stitch on the internet and did a block as reference for a blanket I'll make later in the year.

Pink hand bag

I'm slowly finishing off all the projects I started last year to make room for some new ones. I crocheted this bag last year. Added the lining and handles this week. Wearing it to work tomorrow.

Yarn Bomb

They yarn bombed the steps of the Voortrekker monument. 600 odd blankets from I don't know how many squares. I made a small contribution of some squares but was not able to spot them in this display ;-)

Not a perfect circle

I had crocheted these circles for a project but then decided not to go ahead with it. So now what to do with them? I made up a necklace for a friend.

Yarn Bomb 2014

My effort is but a drop in the ocean, but ever square makes a difference. I made 24 squares and posted them off this morning. I started making the squares with the heart because I didn't know how to make the square where you crochet round and round. I really wanted to try one so I found a visible on the internet and copied it. They are not perfect but I'm getting better at it ;-)
The Yarn bomb 2014 is a project where they want to yarn bomb the steps of the Voortrekker Monument next year during the Yarn Indaba. Afterwards the squares are given to charity for blankets.

This and that

one - I love reading. two - Trish embroidered my jeans for summer, can't wait. Need to get the right sandals and colour nail polish. three - My birthday present, all the way from England. four - I have to take this picture every time I go. Love the light, shadow and patterns. five - I am crocheting up a storm. Love it. six - Asked someone for their heirlooms because I know I can make something fantastic with it. seven - My first attempt at embroidery. It's fun.

Neck ornaments

I crocheted these necklaces, but will I have the courage to wear them? Hmm, I wonder ;-)
