Knit frill bag
I made a bag using frilly scarf yarn , it was really quick to make and easy. No pattern just went along on my own. I need to make another one and write the pattern down so I can share it with you.
The weather is cold here at the moment we had one day of snow and it seems to have gone now. which is a shame because I actually love snow ! .
If you would like to see a copy of the pattern please let me know and I will get on to it. xx
Please leave comments below.

Crochet sunflower tunic.
This was probably my most complicated pattern that I've attempted and selfishly it was all for me too .
The pattern did say it was a weekend project but it took 4 weeks to do. remembering I work full time and have a family ! So maybe if I had a whole week end to myself and no need to put down my crocheting I might of got it done in a weekend lol !
Here it is what do you think ?
heres a link to the pattern

My Crochet Clock and how to make !
I made my crochet clock to enter a craft show and got second prize. I am very pleased with it and it looks fab on my wall in my bedroom.
They are easy to make.
you need a clock mechanism ( they don't cost much ! ) cardboard foam numbers and buttons as well as your yarn .
- with your first colour yarn make a magic loop.
- 10 hdc into magic loop
- change colour , 2 hdc into each stitch
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into stitch repeat around
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into next 2 stitches repeat around
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into next 3 stitches repeat around
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into next 4 stitches repeat around
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into next 5 stitches repeat around
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into next 6 stitches repeat around
- change colour . 2 hdc into next stitch and 1 hdc into next 7 stitches repeat around
- continue until you get a clock face the size you want !
- stick on foam numbers and sew on buttons where numbers should be.
hang on wall and enjoy your own craft ! its unique !

Mermaids hair jumper
I was uploading some photos from last year when i saw my mermaids hair jumper and thought hey I haven't put this on my blog !
Mermaids hair was an expression i saw used on a facebook group describing the yarn i used.
Its RICO CREATIVE REFLECTION yarn in candy. I love this yarn because as well as being sparkly and very yummy its very long ! The yardage is great and I made the jumper with 4 ball s !!!
not the best knitting lol I know !
I'm uploading some photos of our walk on the Offas Dyke these were taken last autumn.
