Jelly Baby presents for my niece xx


Hello everyone on this lovely sunny bright warm day,
sure makes you feel a lot better when the weather is like this,
yesterday I had the back door open for a long while and it was lovely,
I got these lovely jelly baby beads hand made by my friend Faye Cassey,
she sells on ebay under the name craftyfaye71 just in case you might want to get some,
she does different colours and other types as well.


My niece adores bracelets and wanted something that the other girls have not got.
so I got these jelly baby beads and made her the bracelet above,
the bootlace necklace below,

and with the silver one that Faye kindly sent me as a bonus I made this other bootlace necklace
for my friends daughter.

I have also knitted a hat, scarf, fingerless mitten set will post those on here a bit later.
Have a great day, hope your weather is as good as mine,
Hugs

What do 36 large crochet squares make?


I first crocheted 36 of the lovely squares above,
edged them, sewn them together, then did a double row edging to the whole piece,
and it has turned into a wonderful double bed throw,
this is nice and heavy as it was made by myself using aran wool
I am over the moon and very pround of completing this within 3 weeks of starting it,
and that includes knitting a hat, baby jumper as well which I will show photos of later.




You will have to excuse the photo's as my bed is a king size and we dont have much room in our bedroom as you can see, to get decent photos and the weather is rubbish today so no sun either.
Thanks for looking and taking the time to leave a comment.
hope you are all well.
Hugs

Head Band/Ear Warmer in Pink, and a whoopsy lol


Hi Folks,
here are a couple of photo's of a head band/ear warmer that I have knitted over the last couple of days, its in a lovely chunky soft wool, in a pale pink, lovely and warm.
have just listed it in my folksy shop along with two throws that I have also made over the last couple of weeks.
and as for the title the whoopsi, oh my gosh,
Yes I made a card ready for my dt on Saturday,
and wont name which son it was but it got covered in coke,
so what a big whoopsi, and yes I wasnt pleased as I had actually made a card and hadnt got around to getting a photo, so got to start again. tut tut,
never mind son these things happen and are sent to try us.
Will make another tomorrow as feel really low (energy wise) today, so just going to rest all day.
Thanks for stopping by,
hugs to you all,
Angie
