Ravelympics

Well, there wasn't much equestrian broadcast by our dear Channel 7 network (not much of anything apart from swimming LOL) so I turned to the OTHER olympics - at Ravelry! More than 5000 Ravellers took part from all corners of the globe, and we had to create our entries within the time frame of the Olympics, starting during the opening ceremony and finishing tonight!

Here are my entries for Team Freeformations, first a bag-to-be in the colorwork crosscountry:


And then a "Cricket Creams" creation (yes, we know Cricket is not an Olympic sport!) - it was supposed to be a scarf but turned into a bag and scarf matching set.

I'll be putting these in my etsy shop if anyone's interested in buying them! Embellished with ribbons and pearls. Very perty.

Colourful creations

Over the past few weeks, I've been working on some gorgeous commissions, all in pure new Australian merino wool.

Firstly, 2 pairs of wristwarmers for one lovely customer - this is one pair, and the other was in combinations of pink! Very pretty!

Secondly, a sweet little cardigan in purples and blues for a sweet little 3 year old:



I also finished a bag. It's crocheted from all sorts of coloured and textured yarns from my stash:


You can see these, and lots more like them, in my etsy shop. You're welcome to browse anytime, enjoy! If you have any questions about my creations, please contact me.
