Today was the first day of spring, thank goodness. I also just realised that Moo and I haven’t written for the whole of August ~ eek! It’s not that we weren’t crafting, I think it just got to that stage in winter where trying to get enough light for photographs just became all too much work. The house where we live is only 5.5 metres wide, and with the sun so low in the sky, our window of opportunity is rather slim.
But now it’s spring, and I feel like life has suddenly become brighter again! 🙂
I have a few projects still to photograph, but here is the first.
Little Pouches, by Elisabeth Andree. Also, more pouches here and here!
Aren’t they just the cutest? The yarn I used is Cascade Ultra Pima. This is a wonderful, almost glowing cotton yarn – it’s definitely one of my favourites … and a 3.5mm hook
Like Elisabeth, I think this could become a rather addictive little project. They are so easy, and fast, and enjoyable to make, and Elisabeth’s pattern is really easy to follow.
Doesn’t Moo look like she’s sick of winter too?
It’s good to be back 🙂
Yay you’re back!! The pouches are adorable! Moo you are so beautiful!! Have a wonderful spring you lucky DAWG!! It’s coming into fall here, boo hoo summer is over! Hugz Lisa and Bear
Haha! Thankyou! xx I do love winter too, but by the end of it… it just gets a bit tiring to be honest. Hugs to you too, Terri and Moo x
Welcome back, I have missed your crocheting makes. I have missed photos of moo to, she is adorable.
Thankyou so much xxx
The first day of Spring, what a great feeling! Well, here in Holland it is almost the end of Summer but we have some lovely sunny days to come:)
Your pouches are gorgeous, very nice colours and very Springy:)
And Moo looks beautiful with her shiny hair!

Thanks so much, I’m glad you like them. Yes, Elisabeth’s pattern is awesome, and so easy to follow too.
Oooh, I love the pouches – they are gorgeous x
Thanks so much Emma! x
And here I was thinking that I’ve been a bad friend (caught up with work & study) and not following your blog! Phew!
The pouches are so cute! What are you going to use them for?
Lots of love to you, husband and Moo xxx
Haha! Hey Suse 😀 I actually have no idea what I’m going to do with the pouches. I only know that they’re quite addictive ~ I can see them multiplying! Love to you, soon-to-be-husband and puppies too xxx
Beautiful dog! I love dogs – we have two border collies. I’ve just popped over from Slipped Stitches blog to say hi! Love your crochet! Claire x
Hey Claire! Thankyou for your lovely comment. Yes, I’m a little obsessed with dogs… but then I don’t really understand people who are *not* obsessed with dogs… I’m sure you understand too. Border collies are gorgeous, such good looking dogs. x
Awwww, Moo is lovely…. A lot like my Mum’s dog… Merlin (he’s no longer a young dog though).
