There has been some crochet...

Coming along nicely!
[EDITED TO ADD: You can find out more about this blanket here - yarn details, stitch and size information given. Also, check out my other finished crochet projects in my Crochet tab]
Quite a bit of DIY (building chairs, putting up shelves) and some knitting...

This is something I've been working on for the Lumberjack, if it actually works out. I started it before we moved, and it was in hibernation for a few months - but I'm making myself do a few rows here and there. The colour doesn't exactly inspire me! More about that in another post at some point. (That is a GIANT ball of yarn by the way - not a tiny little drill!)
And a nice bit of baking...

These are homemade scones, that we had with rhubarb and ginger jam. The jam was a gift from my lovely sister-in-law - a friend of hers had made it to sell for charity. It was delicious!!
I've also been working on a tutorial for a little something that I will share later in the week.
Until then..
What a lovely post, you have had a fine weekend! The scones and jam look yummy (I make the same jam, it's a fave!) and your yarn projects are coming along very well indeed! I love your tiny drill, it's so cute... ;-} Chrissie x
ReplyDeleteLooks like my kind of weekend. :o)
ReplyDeleteOh that crochet blanket - how fab!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great weekend, thanks for sharing your photos - I've enjoyed looking through them and love the crochet blanket too xx
ReplyDeleteOh, me likey your yarn in the colander. It looks so sophisticated and regal. Much like how I picture you crafting - in your broderie anglais dress with the fire going, crocheting in the utmost style, with lumberjack doing rugged manly stuff. He is a lumberjack, isn't he?
ReplyDeletep.s. Am I the only one who spotted the heart in your yarn? I AM! I win.
I love the yarn in the colander - it was a new Ikea purchase from the weekend. I got very excited when I thought of putting the yarn in there - it looks so styled! The Lumberjack had to kindly ask me to remove it so he could drain something - what a cheek!!
DeleteSophisticated is not really a word that can be used to describe me! You're more likely to find me curled up in some scabby old pyjamas, fluffy slippers and dressing gown while I crochet! Although the lumberjack fits your description, and wanders about doing manly things - like chopping wood for the fire! He is a lumberjack, but has a mix with office based stuff now - managing woodland and heathland.
You may well be the only one to spot the heart - I'm glad you're paying attention! My sister-in-law said she saw your comment and had to quickly scroll up to look for it!
Sehr schöne Decke
