I’m back! And still insanely busy… In between the holidays, a very busy time at work, getting sick a couple times, and having my birthday, I’ve been working on loads of little projects that just didn’t seem to want to be made into a blog post. Thus, I’ve decided to try and put them all in one.
So here’s a quick overview of what I’ve been up to:
I made a bunch of stuff to sell with Tegendraads at Gamepitcon last January.
Finished work on the blanket I started back in October/November (still need to somehow attach the fleece that I bought for the back)
Made some cute felt owls with a kit I bought way back at the Kreadoe
Went to the Haakathon for the Dutch leprosy relief and made a couple ‘red cats’
Went to the opening of a new Crochet store by the girls behind Briljant Crochet (they seem to really be living the dream!)
Made some cards with a kit I got for my birthday.
And together with my friend Doretta, we taught two more people to crochet ^_^ I hope they enjoyed it and are still working on their skills.
Right now, I’m working on Vlad the vampire bat by Lalylala. Using this:
A ball of awesome ‘magic swing’ yarn from Briljant Crochet. It’s got a little sparkle mixed in it ❤ but I have to work it together with my normal yarn, which made for some hard work. Thankfully it's almost done now!
Magic swing in action, it’s a lot of fun to watch the balls of yarn taking shape.
After Vlad is finished, I’ve got a couple projects lined up already (african flower crocodile, a froggy coin purse, actually really finishing the blanket, maybe even start on another blanket with the Stylecraft CAL in April) I hope to be making more blog posts again in the future! I’ll probably elaborate a bit on the Haakathon in a later post ^_^
Plus, something totally not crochet or craft related, I got a new fish tank!
What have you guys been up to?
Cheers, Lydia
