Discovering Doilies

My first effort at making doilies....

I'm afraid I've truly turned into my Nana now, these little beauties are addictive to make 

Yummy Cupcakes!

Decided I wanted decorations on my gate and was in the mood for cupcakes (but I don't cook) Isn't it a yummy looking door now...

Scrap Blanket

Working on my first scrap blanket for a friend, am happy with how it's turning out but have now run out of scraps! Just using yarn from my stash now

Blue and Purple Hexagon Blanket

Made with lots of love for an upcoming birthday

Granny Tissue Box

I fear I am turning into my Nana, but here it is, the granny tissue box! Nicely matches my sofa in the background :) 

Blue Shawl

This is my first attempt at a shawl, I'm happy with how it turned out. The yarn is 'Milk Cotton' and according the the label the yarn is 35% milk fiber. Since it's made in China and everything else on the label is in Chinese who knows! The main thing is it feels super soft against the skin and the colour rocks!

Pink and Purple Throw

A quick little blanket for the girls of the Z household who like to have blankets they can poke their little fingers through :D

Green is Good

For my dear friend DD at Chinese New Year with love

 (she likes green best) 

More Hexagons

I just can't seem to get enough of these hexagons, found this yarn and couldn't resist buying it, then the hexagons started calling.....so here is another hex blanket in the pipeline.....I do plan to finish one eventually! 

Hexagon Life

Have finally felt inspired to breathe life into my hexagon blanket project......so far so good! 

Octagon Blanket Grows

So far so good, I am completely in love with this project.....wish I could crochet faster, am keen to see the end product! 

Starting the Octagon Blanket

 Am very excited about this new blanket I have started........

It's based on this pattern above, I not so keen on those colours so am making mine brighter but I love the design, aiming to get it done by Christmas

Pastel Blanket

This is a single bed sized blanket, a Christmas present for a friend who love pastels

I'm really not so fond of these colours but since she loves them and I love her... I made it! I'm happy with the results in the end but am not keen to work with pastels any time soon

Another Tissue Box

This one was made at the request of dear friends Nancy and Ai Sann for their class, they like flowers so I went with my new favourite African flower pattern

This is the top....there wasn't enough room to make flowers for this bit

African Flower

Have discovered this delightful pattern called African flower, I love it!

Tissue Box

Made this tissue box to brighten up my classroom and add a touch of home

Holiday Hexagons

I made this beauty during my 2 week holiday...am not completely happy with the edge (something to definitely improve in the future) but overall love the colours and like the hexes!

Meet Froggy

He's been made at the request of the talented Ginny .....enjoy!


He came from this cool book which was a gift from Cindy....thank you Cindy!!!

Sophie's Blanket

Sophie loves her new blanket....isn't she so sweet!

Going to the fair....

I sold this blue and yellow baby blanket at the charity fair....so glad someone brought something!!!

And this is a little pink baby blanket I whipped up, I like the final product and it was nice and easy to make.

Apple Hand Pocket Washer

Isn't it cute! you put your hand in the gap and use it to wash dishes and stuff...

new scarf

Nice light scarf made out of 100% cotton, really like this pattern, so beautiful and easy to make!

Gum Baby Blanket

Finished!!

Growing!

Am loving this baby blanket so far

Another Baby B

Am following this design, another fab Japanese number, I think the stitches joining the squares together look so interesting

Here, after some experimenting, are the colours I like the most together with the wool Nic gave me

My newest student

Say hello to Anna :) She's my keenest student yet and works on this scarf before she gets out of bed in the morning!!

Isn't it looking great so far!

Love this 'Wind Chime' pattern

Another baby blanket.....I think this design is really lovely so am making 2 with it, the yarn is a bamboo cotton mixture

baby blankets

This blue one is suppose to be Rachie's baby blanket, but it's turning out way longer then I realised so think I may end up turning it into an adult blanket??

This pink baby ripple hasn't worked out so well :( it keeped growing at the ends and has a funny shape now, not sure what I am going to do with it!

2010 CAL

These blocks are 30cm squared...they're part of a crochet along group I've joined on Raverly...we get a new pattern every month and at the end of the year we put them together to make a beautiful blanket. I make two squares a month so maybe I will make one blanket half year and one end of year....love how they are working out so far :D
