Crafts - May 2021

[smallhobbit]

There's not that much to report regarding crafts for the month, although progress has been made.

I'm still, very slowly, knitting a small elephant (the size isn't the issue, the enthusiasm is), and I finished the daughter's hat, in time for her visit yesterday.  She was very pleased with it.  Photo of hat and then plus pompom.

 

There's plenty of wool left, so I shall make a smaller one for our granddaughter.  I'm also planning on doing some knitted squares for a throw.

I've written elsewhere about the Dare to Dabble paper flowers.

And my cross stitch of the bandstand at Tenby is progressing well.  I definitely think I shall do one of the others from the set as well.

Heeee! Multi-coloured bobbly hat! It'll be great for mother and daughter to have matching hats!

The cross stitch is coming along well, though I suspect we won't see the full effect until it's in its frame. Then the frame will set it off.

Your daughter's hat looks fabulous! :-D It's great that there's enough wool left over to knit a smaller hat for your granddaughter.

I really like your latest cross stitch project. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product. :-)

An excellent hat, and the cross stitch is coming on nicely:-)

Love the hat! It's going to look good on both your daughter and granddaughter. And the cross stitch is very pretty.
