All the stuff

 Hi All,

Bit of a mixed bag today.


First of all, I finally finished my crochet jumper just in time for the end of winter here in Australia.

The pattern is from MJs off the hook designs, and I used Patons Sierra (which I would happily use again and again) 

I found it a great pattern to work from with a lot of sizes available. I would like the neckline to be a little higher so I might try and change that if I hook it up again.



And in other crochet news I also finished these three pairs of dragon scale gloves.

 


I'm slowly getting through my yarn stash and have only bough two or three balls of yarn to complete a few projects. I have way too much and made this the year it gets cut back so I've been selling some, giving some away and just doing the old-fashioned way by actually making things with it. Luckily, I have a friend that does markets who is happy to sell the items I make on for me. And I'm enjoying the less cluttered space.


I've been practicing my stump work and worked up a few more petals and am noticing the improvement. I am loving this new skill and can't wait to see where it takes me. Most likely it will take me to a new thread collection. (which I can buy with the proceeds from my yarn destash 😝)



And of course I can't forget my cross stitch. I added The Bobcat to the A Year In The Woods 2 piece.

I'm doing this project on 20ct aida vintage country mocha stitched 2 over 1 full cross.



Lastly I'm also planning a new start and here is a sneaky peak at it!



Happy crafting till next time my friends 💗
