Crafts - June 2021

[smallhobbit]

The exciting news is that the hat I knitted for the daughter last month went up Mount Snowden two days ago!  I've started the identical hat, but smaller, for her niece:



I've also started working on a new throw - it's a knitalong with a new square pattern issued every week.  There are, I think, eight squares in total, which are repeated in number depending on the size of the throw/cushion being made.  The patterns are at week six - I've just started week four:

   

And here's the knitted elephant - the body partly sewn up. 



Because the daughter is now 30 (her birthday is today) I stitched her a bookmark:



And the bandstand at Tenby is making good progress.  I'm about two-thirds of the way through now.  I'll definitely be doing another in the series.



Other crafts are temari balls and zentangles, and I made an origami crane:

I do like the bandstand at Tenby, and yay for daughter's hat conquering Mount Snowden, hope she had a great birthday. The throw looks nice too, I like the patterns and colours.

Thank you. It will need some back stitch to outline the bandstand when it's finished. I chose the throws colours so I could mix and match the squares.

The Daughter had a great birthday, horse riding, playing crazy golf, eating ice creams and finishing with a barbecue.
