Crafts - August 2021

[smallhobbit]

Another good crafting month, which feels particularly successful as I have finished my summer crafts and am all ready to tackle the autumn ones.

Dare to Dabble was sketching in the garden of Nature in Art.

I have stitched two coasters from a birthday kit I had received.  I'm especially pleased as I created my own patterns, which I adjusted as I went on.  I still have two coaster squares left, but they will wait until next year, and some new inspiration.

  

With those completed, I can now turn to Christmas cross stitch projects, for which I have a kit:



I also completed the Harry Potter hat, which The Daughter had given me for my birthday.  Not a smart hat, but will be great for exercising locally.



A couple of week's ago, when we were leaving following our visit, our granddaughter said, "Granny, I don't have a winter scarf.  Could you knit me one?"  I have some wool left from the hat I knitted for her, which used the wool sent by the daughter when she wanted a hat knitting, so as per request I've begun.



I've knitted the next three squares of my throw

   

Which completes the Rowan Yarns Knitted with Love series.  I'm now starting a Botanical Garden series of eight.

And lastly, I've begun knitting a cardigan for Granddaughter's Christmas present.
