Hi friends, well you could say my yarn mojo has returned - it's been several years since I had both a crochet project and knitted socks on the go at the same time, and I am thoroughly enjoying working on each. My reading lunchtime break has been replaced by one or another, even if it's only twenty minutes or so, I can get a row of crochet done or a few rows on the sock.
My new crochet project is the Summer Vintage blanket by Amanda Hurrell, Eight by Six on Instagram and Facebook. I purchased the Yarnsmiths cotton/linen yarn from the Wool Warehouse in the UK, and it arrived here to New Zealand in just a week's time. Took me a minute or two to try to remember how to do a treble stitch, ha ha.
Gorgeous colours. I did forget to add the lighter yellow, Buttercup, to my order, but never mind.
The other WIP project that I'm currently focusing on is Martha's Stocking by Shepherd's Bush, another project I've not stitched on in ages.
Last week I ordered some ultra firm stabliser from Rainbow Stash for some new project folders and added these cute fat quarters and a thread holder to my order.
Last weekend I spent Saturday with some friends - I couldn't decide what to work on so took everything ha ha.
Two little projects finished completely: a freebie from Primrose Cottage Stitches
Hope anchors the Soul, also by Primrose Cottage Stitches, made into a scissor fob.
Many thanks for stopping by, see you soon x
