Last night I started a crochet owl and finished him earlier today. Here he is.
I thought it would be a good way to use up some of the many balls of furry wool I have accumulated. It didn't actually turn out too bad as the "fur" hides the sewing up and everyone knows how much I hate sewing and am not very good at it.
The Owl Pattern is here if anyone interested in trying one.
I want to try this rabbit next, how cute would he be for Easter gifts! I haven't had much time today though so that will be a project for another day.
I did two loads of washing this morning using the travel twin tub and then hung it all out on my portable rotary washing line and felt very domesticated. Funny how seeing fresh laundry on a washing line brings a strange sense of contentment.
Anais and Roman have enjoyed playing outside for most of the day on their bikes. They also went investigating in the bushes to see what bugs they could find and (with a lot of help) Anais managed to crochet herself a bow which she has put on her hair band.
This evening me, Anais and Roman sat down to watch Breaking Dawn part 2. We all must be in sombre moods tonight as we all cried, me and Anais just love the song Christina Perry "A thousand years" very moving, beautiful words :-)
Anyway, here are some of our makes for the past couple of days..........
