Crafts - April 2022

[smallhobbit]

The swan family cross stitch should soon be completed.  All the cygnets are there now; all that remains are the bushes (of which there are many) and some of the reflections.



And as part of my new goals, I have taken one of the patterns from my new Spring 2022 cross stitch magazine, and am stitching initials to go on a wedding card:



Mini Hobbit was delighted with her Easter present:

 



I have also knitted two more squares for my throw.  The second is from a new Rowan KnitALong, with a textured theme based on architectural buildings.  The first of which is Rotterdam.  Two colour because I ran out of the green yarn and the pattern wasn't interesting anyway.

 

I also knitted a Ukrainian sunflower for SM to wear at a concert he was singing at:



And lastly, again relating to my new goals, I have started a painting by numbers I was given a few months ago

Wow! You have been busy! The swan family cross stitch is looking fantastic! I also really like the cross stitch initials that you're creating for that wedding card.

I'm glad that Mini Hobbit was so happy with her Easter presents -- not that it comes as a surprise!

Your other knitting projects are looking good. It's great that SM was able to wear that knitted Ukrainian sunflower at the concert he was singing at.

Your paint by numbers project looks promising. I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Thank you very much. I always enjoy writing my Craft post, and seeing what I've done over the past month - I get so involved with the intricacies that it comes as a surprise to see what there is.
