My Space

I now have my own room after re-arranging the childrens bedrooms for all my sewing, crafting, blogging and escaping. 

Now all I need is more hours in the day to get creative.

Progress

r

Last time I blogged about crochet I successfully knew how to do a single crochet and that was it.  I am proud to say I have now mastered the double crochet, along with the triple crochet and a half double stitch.  Although still slow while keeping my eyes fixed on the needle, I find crochet so relaxing now and love seeing the progression from a simple ball of wool.  The pictures are the start of a throw rug I'm doing for the couch.

Inspiration

While waiting for my wool to arrive I have been getting a little excited at starting something new.  I borrowed a book on crochet from the library to find inspiration and found myself falling in love with the shopping bag and clutch.  While I know I won't be able to make them straight away, it's something  I can work towards.
