Its true, I've been struck, smitten, forever head over heels for
these wee beauties...
Sweet, lovely, not to hard to make, a dream really,
I'm so grateful to Barbara for this great pattern & for making it available
on her blog for all to use :)
Really its been another wowsie of a week, running here, there
& everywhere.....picking up this lil cute bit of hookey was
such a nice distraction from all the madness!!!!!
I managed to get three more made up
And a bit of progress on the blanket (yes I know I said enough blankets, but this
one was already started) so on we goooooo....
These are sooooo my colors, girly, pastely, sugary, you know
what I mean PINK!!
Am heading off tomorrow for a weeks break & this is coming with me
Bliss, heaven , pure relaxation, hope I get lots of crochet time, I feel
like its gonna be a real revival for me.
Hope you all have a wonderful week, will catch up
when I get back

Something so straighforward and relatively easy that can create something so lovely. Mind you its the combination of colours that does it each time though. I'd say these favourite colours of yours were a very right choice. Sweeties!!! It just goes to show you don't have to sit at a complicated piece of crochet to produce a very attractive project.
ReplyDeleteI am wondering if it means something that we lean towards certain colours frequently. I go for orange alot...I suppose its all to do with the psychology of colour...interesting subject :-)

ReplyDeleteEnjoy your trip and get back with many gorgeous finished projects!!!
Best wishes, LS
