Autumn (9/25)
I had some difficulty here trying to make something similar to the Bonsai Tree, (which was done completely randomly). Trying to do random deliberately, did my head in!!

Butterfly 8/25

Here be Sherry Pences Butterfly. Had trouble getting to grips with the patern, so not 100% as written. And as butterflys bodies tend to be hairy, I tried a thicker thread ( Crochetta size 8 (yuky stuff) ) and made the body using half the amount of stiches. Almost but not quite. It'll come. Wings made with DMC 80. Once again with many thanks to BJ for the thread.

Coaster 25/7

Just made me first "round thing". trying it again with a couple of changes in the hope of stopping the "wavy edges" which have caused it to fold slightly on the left. Can anyone help to sort the problem please. Is it stitch count or inconsistant tension?


Managed to get round 18 holes for the first time in 4 weeks. maybe things is looking up.
