August part 4

 I still love the fabric on this, this is the best picture I got so you can see the sparkle and colour, but it still doesn't do it justice. This is Isobel's lovely stitch along
I missed getting a sense of scale with this picture. Those are size sixteen knitting needles and this is going to be a rug made out of scraps of old clothes made by Susie. Without a pattern as well, I'm so impressed!

August pt 3

Anne is making a selection of gifts for a friend at the moment (early September deadline so she's working hard) and this lovely cross stitch is one of the gifts. 
I'm working on crochet fingerless gloves. I've finished one, rather than darning in the ends and I'm now working on the second one. I've since undone the second one and restarted it again, so I'm getting there. 
And we're still glad to have Sam back, here's what she's working on at the moment, so cute!

August part 2

It was lovely to see Rena back this month, and she brought along some crochet flowers that she's been experimenting with, aren't they cute?
And talking of crochet, believe it or not, I finally managed to finish the twiddle-muff, which means that this is also the first time that I finished a crocheted thing, so proud!
This week we also saw the return of Sam, who brought another piece of beautiful cross stitch with her.

August Part 1

 Isobel has discovered the joy of SALs, this is her latest project, on some gorgeous sparkly fabric (very difficult to photograph the sparkle). It's it cute though!
 My start on crochet fingerless gloves. Sadly I've since undone all of this because it was the wrong size, but at least you can see how I was starting off before I undid it all!
