Makings...

By PaisleyJade - Thursday, January 27, 2011


I tried desperately to make something less 'granny-ish' this week after last weeks disaster... but alas, my attempts to make softies or totes went out the window and I found myself whipping up some coffee cup sleeves!  Here are a few...




They are rather sweet though don't you think?  I'm going to slip the mustache one in my bag for myself, and a few in the shop for anyone who isn't ashamed to display a bit of crochet in public.

I have a couple of surprises coming up soon too... a weekly "Things I'm loving" linky you can all join in with tomorrow (so get your posts ready) and another softie giveaway on it's way soon (just because you guys are awesome).

    Also lovely of you to set up a happy Friday linky of lurve :) I always enjoy celebrating and acknowledging the good stuff - kinda makes for a self fulfilling prophecy most of the time... think positive is my mantra! x

  14. Ahh, Paisley Jade. So good to meet a fellow crochet nut. I adore it and I subcribe to a mag where you crochet a square with every issue and then I will have a beautiful blanket to hand down to my daughter. So many other gorgeous things in there too. I look forward to seeing more of your "makings".
