Ta Dah!

Good Morning Everyone!!!

I am terribly pleased with myself, as I have managed to finish my Japanese Flower Scarf!!  I am utterly and totally happy with it, but I must say that it became addictive......... and I want to make more of these gorgeous flowers!!!!

I just need to think about colours and what I want to make next......... hmmmmmmm...........

Anyway here are a couple of picture's of my completed scarf....... It does still look a bit messy, as I still need to block it.  

I will of course show it to you once I have blocked it, because as many of you know, things just lay more orderly when they are blocked and they do look finished! 

o-o-o-o-o-o-o

I have also been making a bit of progress with my African Flowers which I previously blogged about here ........

I am finding these very slow, not because they are difficult...... no ..... in actual fact they are very easy to make!! But because I am using really fine yarn and a 3mm crochet hook, so my hexagons are a lot smaller and all the ones pictures above would only just cover a small cushion!!  But I will persevere, as I have promised to make both bean and peanut something for their new bedrooms.

The next challenge I will face with this particular project, will be how to lay it all out...... but that will all come together properly in the end, as I do have a couple of rough ideas sketched and noted down, but as I've been making more of these, I keep changing my mind...... 

Well, I have a number of things that have been rushing around my head and I need to get them down into some form of sketch or note....... so until next time...... have a creative time!!

Japanese Flowers.

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Well, apart from getting ready from graduation last week, I did manage to squeeze in a bit of hooky time........ but only a bit!!!!

I fell victim to the Japanese Flower pattern!!!!!

You can get hold of the pattern by going here - It is Motif Book 4.  I was fortunate enough to borrow a friends copy!  It is a fabulous book and the diagrams weren't as difficult to figure out as I thought they would be! I am using a pink and purple variegated yarn, which is super soft and I decided I would make a scarf and not the whole shawl thingy!

This is my progress so far....... so........ keep your eyes out for a ta-dah moment!!!

Until next time........ happy creating!
