Crafts - January 2025

[smallhobbit]

The Floral SAL continues - here's February:

I also finished by January and February for my Mouse SAL, which I'm using for the calendar on our wall this year:

   

I stitched birthday cards for both Son and a friend, but forgot to take photos, but I did remember for Mini Hobbit's birthday:



I've made progress with my latest pair of wristwarmers, although as yet they're not sewn up:

   

And I'm up to the arm shaping on my jumper:

You have been so productive with your crafting! I especially love the two stitch-alongs.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. I was pushed to finish the January Mouse one - needed it in time for the first - but I think I'm getting it more under control now.

You just squeaked in with it!

Bordados lindíssimos, principalmente o com desenho de leque. E você faz tricô omg que legal.

Thank you very much - the fan-like cross stitch will become a complete circle with one segment for each month - I'm halfway through. Cross stitch and knitting are my two crafts I use to relax.

Everything looks lovely!

Thank you very much!

You have been busy! I really like the floral sal.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. I've been delighted with the way the floral SAL is going.

Cool.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you.

Great work all around! I truly do have a lot of respect for your skill in this, and the hard work you have to put in to create anything through it! The mouse is especially cute, but I think my actual favorite is the sort of fan with the sun and flowers. :)

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much. I do enjoy doing it. I like the mouse - we're using her on our wall calendar this year, and like you my favourite is the sun and flowers, which will eventually be a complete circle of flowers.

I look forward to seeing it completed! And glad the mouse will be with y'all all year! Awesome! :)

One thing I've missed not being on DW much at all the last several/many months is seeing your amazing crafts. The embroidery is so beautiful and the mice are just ADORABLE capital letters required :D

[smallhobbit]

Oh, thank you. As soon as I saw the first mouse in my magazine I knew I had to stitch him/her - they're so sweet.

Just a quick catch-up comment to say that the Floral SAL looks amazing! I love the range of colours and the details of all the flowers. :-D

Kudos for your cross stitch cards. I especially like the one you did for Mini Hobbit's birthday.

Both of your knitting projects are coming along nicely. I'm looking forward to seeing what the jumper looks like when it's finished.

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much - I'm delighted with the way the Floral SAL is going. And that you like Mini Hobbit's birthday card, she liked it too.

As for the jumper - I'm hoping to have it finished in time for the autumn :)
