A little pink purse

This purse was gifted this summer - I just forgot about it...



The recipient (my niece) was very happy with it.

No pattern, cotton yarn (mandarin petit)and the button is from an old coat - my moms I think.

thanks to manne - for making me blog ;)

Lucky me

I won!

Look what Brianna from "The Crochet Side" generously giftet me after a contest on her podcast:



The Crochet Answer Book by Edie Eckman - that will teach me everything I want to know about crochet, and more.

and

A light blue, very soft ball of Phildar Coton Micro Fibres. I think I have to make the One Row Lace Scarf. Probably as a moebius cowl as I did with the yarn Love from Vickie Howell.

Have to blog...

I have to get this blog back on track, starting with a cloth:



Fun pattern, but a little thick for washing perhaps? I havn't tried yet...

Pink bag and progress

My Pink crocheted bag, in the hated pink yarn, is done:





Or almost done. It needs lining, but that could take years...



Pattern: None
About yarn: Ravelry link


Sock progress

Still loving this pattern!



See You Later!

Look what I got!

A new zoom lens:



Juhu!

And best of all, this:



A bag I'm crocheting right now.



To much fun!! :)

Spring please?

I'm so tired of the winter, tired of the snow, the ice, the cold air, the darkness...

It's picture beautiful, but that's all.




On my needles

Not much:

Shalom is still waiting to be blocked.

A pair of socks are almost done, I've tried a new heel this time, and love it!

A crocheted scarf was on the hook for a while - but is frogged now.




But now it is the weekend, hopefully it will stop snowing soon.

Did I mention that I don't care to much about the winter? *lol*


A happy song:




to wish you a happy weekend. :)

But I'll propably run out of the gray yarn, and I'm not really happy about that. I'll have to think about what to do...

In the spirit of cleaning up the closet I've found all my FO's that are just FO's with no plans. I have a lot of FO's:
