Strawberry fields

Last night, out of no-where, i decided to put my crochet aside and whip up a circle skirt for my 3.5 yr old, Amity. I took her into my sewing room and let her choose the fabric she wanted. She of course chose the strawberry one to be like Strawberry Shortcake!


The fabric is "Dainties" by Robert Kaufman.

More CROCHET!

Thats Right!! Crochet is my poison at the moment so you will just have to bear with me for little while longer.



This is my 'Curly Colori' Scarf. I got the pattern from Calico and Ivy (where i work) and it was so much fun to crochet up, especially using the fabulous Mille Colori yarn. It is like a rainbow that has been captured in a ball of yarn!



I just love these little corkscrews tassels on the end as well. Oh and did i mention that this was my very FIRST crochet project EVER!!


And for my little boy.... this is a WIP but you get the gist of it. The blue is a lot more vibrant in real life (it might have something to do with photographing it against a dark couch too though). I am using the luxuriously soft Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK. My little boy has really sensitive skin so this soft yarn is great.
