It’s Thursday afternoon and I’m already thinking of my To Do List for the weekend.
In no particular order (as the X-factor results man always says):
*These items may will probably be deferred to next week.

Posted in My ramblings, Terrific Tuesdays
On a Monday I can still remember the fun I had over the weekend, Wednesday is the middle of the work week, on Thursday I start getting hopeful and on a Friday I can taste the weekend. But what about a Tuesday? It’s so…. just there. Weekend memories are too far away and the upcoming weekend might as well be a year away.
What we need is a bit of colourful inspiration to get us going on a Tuesday, don’t you think? A pretty picture, beautiful scenery or colourful imagery. Yup, that’ll liven up Tuesdays and turn it into a terrific day!
From now on I will go through my holiday snaps every Tuesday and find us a pretty picture to add colour and joy to the day.

Check out the granny square afghan on Big Bang Theory, Season 5 episode 3! And yes, I paused the show and stood in front of the TV to take a photo.
Slightly crochet obsessed and loving it!

No, not the old Tudor song:
but a crocheted green cotton sleeve for my Starbucks cup at work.
I whipped this one up with a no. 6 hook and Drops Paris cotton yarn. I used the “House Blend Cozy” by Lion Brand yarn pattern as a base. In the end I had to almost double the foundation chain and as I didn’t do mine in stripes, I ended up doing it in Amigurumi style where you just keep on going in the round without a definite start and end to the row. I basically just used their pattern to get the shape of the sleeve right.
All things considered, quite a thing of beauty me doth thinketh.

Here are the nine fleece blankets that I will be selling at the Christmas markets in November. I’m very excited about these and I looooved making them.
All of the edgings are from Edie Echman’s book Around The Corner Crochet Borders. Highly recommended!
