Well, the scarf yesterday wasn’t bad at all (just as all the scarves before ;-)), but this waving scarf is also special, isn’t it?
On the list with it ;-))

Tea Dyed Doily Scarf

I must confess that in fact I like to crochet doilies – but I don’t want to have them, because I don’t have a clue about what to do with them ;-).
That’s perhaps the reason why I like so much putting together things from squares or the like ;-))
Well, now I can make me such a doily scarf ;-)
I think that you can very well hand-dye it with tea or coffee.

They look great, those tilings, don’t they?
You can find even more on the site, one more beautiful than the next.
I thought that they can excellently be used for quilting, but also for multi colour knitting, -crochet, -beading – in short for everything that you can do with filet crochet/cross stitch embroidery charts.
I mentioned before that I don’t quilt, therefore I don’t have any experience.
If the quilting wasn’t possible I’d be glad getting a comment on why this should be so :)
Otherwise: let’s get to work ;-))

There are soo beautiful stamps, why not make a little piece of jewelry from them?
One way is the already presented lamination, another the beading of stamps.
And with a little more thought I will get other ideas as well ;-))

I presented already the beaded freeform wire crochet and the wire hairpin lace bracelet, but here at wire crochet you can find a lot of tips that you can use making the other items.
Just check it out :))

Doesn’t this look most beautiful?
I like the idea to embroider patterns of a Spirograph very much :))
What you can embellish!
And you can embroider by hand or machine, on fabric or paper, single or multi-coloured etc. etc.
Great!

I have the tutorial about using Organza on polymer clay on my list for a long time already – but not yet tried.
After having no time to work with polymer clay for quite a long time now, I don’t want to buy some liquid polymer clay.
Nevertheless…

I surfed the internet a little bit and found a website with lots of most beautiful Bolero and Shrug patterns, as well knitted as well crocheted.
But of course you can make other clothes from the single crochet patterns ;-)
I find best on shrugs that they don’t take so long to make as sweaters and the like ;-))
Although I feel the same constriction about shrug-making as for the crocheted Bolero: first I want to lose some (more) weight.
A fine excuse, isn’t it? ;-))
Addendum: it seems that Jessica Tromp put the pattern somewhere else: 60 bolero-crochet-patterns.
You find the photo under bolero 6a and directly to the right the directions on making the bolero.
The instruction for the medaillon seems to be further up on the same site where the yellow bolero is.
This is the direct link, but it doesn’t work for me.
Happy crochet :)

At the moment we’re jittering from the cold here – what better time to make some most beautiful votives from ice for the balcony or the garden?
When it get’s warm again we will be making jewelry from ice again and at every time we can make a lot of things from the plastic bottles ;-)

Rcently I cable-knitted a little bit, namely a pattern where I not only cable every so often. At some point I was a little unnerved from always have to pick-up-the-cable-needle-cable-knit, especially because my cable needle is very fine and tends to slip out of the picked-up stitches.
The entry about cabling without a cable needle was a real help to me.
It would certainly help to finish my long list of cable patterns that I have already presented ;-)
In the beginning I found it a little difficult but it is always the same: Practice makes perfect.
But I wouldn’t dare to try it in a shaking bus ;-)
