Crotchety...

More crocheting here. When I am feeling anxious, it's the best thing ever. This little bag needs a button. It's a bamboo blend and super-soft. Only one question - how do I stop the sides curling? Hmm. I have also been making more washcloths. Turns out they are also great for cleaning the shower! Enjo no more! I have hook-power!


Another thing that helps calm me down is a quick visit to an Op-Shop! Latest finds:

Beaded shoes for Miss 2 for $1! She loves these "Prinpress" shoes! Dress-ups are a hit here.


Buckles for more brooches, and a Tassie teatowel to for Cam to make one of these ;P

The best news is that the Holly Hobbie Mix-Master cover, fits perfectly over the coffee machine! Hooray! Kitschen looks great!

Such amazing finds at the oppy!
I've been wanting to make some knitted or crocheted wash cloths forever. I bought some beautiful handmade soap to go with them months ago...and that's as far as I got!

To stop the curling - do a row of double crochet around the edge of the folded over bit. That will (should) brring it back to normal
