I KNOW I shouldn't whinge....I KNOW I shouldn't complain....I mean HEAVEN only knows we need the rain but for cryin' out loud DOES IT HAVE TO RAIN ON SUNDAY....The ONLY day of the week I get to go Treasure hunting....ummmmmm....Excluding Saturday of course if I'm out in the HR....!!!
Anyways....
I texted my Friend Lyn at 4am to let her know it was raining BUCKETS over my way & she said she didn't care she was still coming as it would be her last opportunity this year to have her stall....This meant that I would HAVE to move my car or unload & get everything WET....So at 4.30am I turned around & came home....BUGGER....!!
There was no chance I'd be able to go back to sleep so I set about following up on one of the MANY headache giving ideas I have & commenced to crochet up a storm....Bearing in mind I haven't picked up a hook since I was 12 but I was SO INSPIRED yesterday when I visited one of my ALL TIME FAVE vintage destinations Empire 111, & saw some sweet little flower chains I thought I'd give them a go....!
....hahahahahahaha....The first five or so I attempted looked like something Homer would come up with but once I worked out the kinks I was good to go....!!
Cheers for now,
Tamarah :o)
They are cute and could almost pass as snowflakes!
ReplyDeleteSorry about your bad day :(
Fun "letters" in your last post.

What a bugger of a day, we got drenched yesterday at a fete, brings back some memories of another day and another fete.
ReplyDeleteHow clever of you to do a spot of crochet. Well done!! It looks really good. Great day for crafting, I'm trying to finish a tea cozie.
Thanks for your lovely message, re: beanie.

Hello Tamarah darling!!
ReplyDeleteI hate when it happens, rain. It really can spoil all the fun sometimes. Sorry to hear that your treasure hunt got disturbed.
I love your little snowflake flower things. Really cute. I can make mittens, but nothing so small than your pretty flowers. Very cute!!
Hope you have a chance to enjoy your weekend!!

Hiya Tamarah, I think the weather has come up north, wet today and looking like it is here to stay for the next week.
ReplyDeleteLove the little crochet string, I totally need to make some of these. I have to learn to crochet first :)
Love the mannequin, she is gorg-e-ous!
Ooohh, I saw some HR across the road on the way home from the shops, an old fridge..hehe
Hope the rest of the week sees you well.
