Hello to you all....Well I think my paper crafting and card making has definitely been put on the back boiler at the moment, I have just lost all interest in card making at the moment which is why I went looking for something else to fill the hours....So I have some more crochet to share today...I used you tube again for the inspiration for this project and I must say I love it.. It is just a huge granny square turned into a bag.....I have lined it and decorated with the pompoms and some crochet flowers.
I have just bought 14 balls of yarn to make a Throw it is a Crochet along project with a facebook group in which you just follow along with a pattern on a weekly basis. I shall also be sharing my progress with you.
well bye for now

Love your bag Doreen. I also have the pattern, but as I am busy on another blanket at the moment,this will have to wait a little. I have also started a CAl..and loving it,(is it the Scheepjes CAl that you have joined?) together with the blanket it keeps me busy. Still doing my cards, but to a much lesser degree...getting so much satisfaction from my crocheting at the moment.

looks great Doreen, I tend to crochet at night while watching TV. I collect odd bits of wool from people and do blankets for the dogs homes. xxxx
ReplyDeletewhat a super bag, I love the lace and pom-poms, I am just leaning to crochet, 6" squares to make a blanket, nothing too complicated yet lol

ReplyDeleteI love your crocheted bag, you are clever. Marlene

I love this bag, Doreen, especially those bamboo handles! If this was done on a larger scale, it would make a perfect summer beach bag to hold all the goodies we love to take along on a beach trip.
ReplyDeleteWow you are such a natural talented person. I could never crotchet, but I used to love to cross stitch. LOL!
ReplyDeleteA great bag Doreen. I find I don't papercraft quite so much in the summer months, the light lends itself to crochet or sewing much better!! xx
ReplyDeletefabulous and very colourful Doreen great job you did.

Can't say I blame you Doreen, to be honest if I could make something as fab as this I wouldn't bother card making either!

Hallo liebe Doreen,
ReplyDeletewow ist das eine wunderschöne CrochetTasche geworden. Ich finde sie sehr chic. Ich finde es toll das du eine Alternative zum Karten basteln gefunden hast. Auch wenn ich deine wundervollen Karten ein wenig vermissen werde. Manchmal muss man aber einfach eine Pause machen und sich an anderem orientieren. Ich bin schon sehr gespannt auf dein neues Projekt. Bei 14 Knäuel Wolle wird es ja wieder etwas größeres werden. Viel Spaß beim handarbeiten.
Ganz liebe Grüße Hugs Silvi
WOW!! Fabulous crocheted bag Doreen. I am sure you will be back to card making soon, but at least you have crocheting to keep you occupied..Loz
ReplyDeleteI love this bag, Doreen. I love to crochet, but so far do simple things like blankets and scarves..must had a dander to U Tube to see if I can see something a bit more exciting...hugs my friend xxx
ReplyDeleteThis is really gorgeous Doreen. So colourful and uplifting. Glad you have found something else to fill your time.
