Spring and Sunshine

What a lovely weather we have! I went outside to work on my new crochet project.
This was the view from the bench I was sitting on:

 made a new friend:
Although she probably was only intrested in my biscuits...anyway, still  a good company together with these sheep behind me:


 Some of them would deliver some nice wool...


And this is what I was crocheting:
It definitely needs to be blocked.
It will be shawl, what else.
Here you can see the pattern, which will look amazing after the blocking... at least hoping so.

Toddler dress from a T-shirt

We are not yet the best friends with my new sewing mashine, so I try to improve my skills with easy projects. This one is the upcycling of a man T-shirt to a dress for the almost one year old Tamara. With the crochet parts I could also hide some of my beginner sewing faults.

Crochet Flowers

This week I crocheted many little flowers. I didn't exactly know for what purpose, I found relaxing to make them. Today I glued almost all of them on a canvas, so the purpose has been found:
voilá, my new wall decoration for the springtime.

Crochet for Feet 'n Legs

Although it's not really cold anymore, it's still nice to have warm crochet socks for home and a few legwarmers for the long walks in the nature.
I didn't bother to find a pattern, just put them on many times while crochetting to see if the size would be alright.




Used yarns from Wibra and Zeeman.

Back to Blogging...


And yes, back to business, after a long silence on this blog.
It's quite a struggle to decide which project to start with, as I have been crocheting so much...
so, let me first show this guy, sitting right next to me.
The symbol of the new blogging start :)


Crocheted as X-mas present for Kelvin. I was inspired by the Amineko's seen on Pinterest, just preferred to make a bear, for we already have a cute cat (a real one).
I used the Tweed yarns of Zeeman, loving their colors and thickness.
This beige cushion was by the way my first knitting project using thick Hema yarn.
