Snowflake Table Runner in the Making

I started! I have been moaning about not having time to make myself one of these table runners so I started. I have three more rounds of the first one and there is only two more to go. If I finish once a week in between my more pressing things I might get finished sooner rather than later and in time for next winter, because this winter is surely lacking.

Also my bunny tried to kill me yesterday. More on that later, I am off to the library before they close for the month!

Finished Friday

I don't think I ever showed you my finished snowflake tablecloth? But here it is, in a rather blurry photo since such is winter here that the window with good taking pictures lightning is quite slim...

But I do have a little bit of leftover yarn, hmm, maybe I need another smaller snowflake tablecloth?

M and I had sushi today and it was oishi! I feel worse with my cold today than yesterday so I hope this does not turn into a three week cold again, I am quite good at those...

I hope to do more on my skirt tomorrow!

My Snowflake Table cloth

 Is getting there.

So as there is only one month left of winter I am hoping to finish this soon. but I am making other things as well so might take me a while. But as soon as I finish something I will upload to for you to see. I think I wan't to start cross-stitching again soon.

This might be a January in years where I haven't started on Christmas presents yet... o.0

It is a little further than this now, but I hope it will last all the way to the edges. The yarn is sadly discontinued. I still have some in gold though. 

I love making things that are in season even of that means the item won't be finished until next time it is in season, oh well. :)

(I need to see if maybe eBay or something has more of this sparkly yarn in this colour because I would love to make one smaller than this too. And perhaps more like a hexagon than a rectangle.)

A little on a lot

I have done lots of different things, but not finished one of them. My goal this week is to finish the page on Henry, which is just where the invisible line is, so I just fill in from up the dress and up to the other lady's arm.

And I have done a little more on this project that I started a little before Christmas, I think I may be halfway now, depends on how large I want the finished item to be. But when I finish I will have another Christmas present. Not quite sure who will receive it, so I can show you this.

I hope it will turn into a table cloth or table runner. The crochet in the back is my bunny blanket, I  have finished another colour on that one, see I told you I have been doing a little on a lot.

And I was a little bored, so I started another granny thing, I have no idea what to turn it into, a scarf, a pillow, a blanket? Anyone have any ideas? It is a lovely little acrylic yarn in nice muted pastels. Not quite sure about the white, but if I only use it a little it might blend in.

And so I have no finishes, a start, and some continuation on some projects. The moving date is looming closer and closer and I feel way over my head… I want to be done with it already because we are at a point where we can't really do anything more until we have the keys to the other place….

Oh, and Mimle has a date planned, with an adorable harlekinish rabbit in July. I hope they will turn into a happy couple. Today she spent ten minutes washing my feet while I was on the computer. She is a sweety-pie.

Happy New Year

I bought some sparkly yarn I have been eying for ages, and I splurged a bit and bought one. I made a rather lovely little snowflake, but since I was a bit late in buying the yarn they did not have any white sparkly left so my snowflake looks a lot more like a star. But none the less it is festive and blends in with the rest o the sparkly decor. 

I followed a recipe from a book I bought just before Christmas, there were lots of nice little things to crochet and knit in it, but I have forgotten the name of the book. Maybe I will tell you another time because now I am off into the new year.

So Happy New Year!
