It's a wrap!


Got a little restless the other night, watching a movie with my hands doing nothing, so I thought I'd try my hand at crocheting with beads/stones and yarn, instead of wire. Took the entire movie just to string the stones onto my yarn though, and only ten minutes to whip up this cute wrap bracelet, so I made a few more, without the stones. This one below that Miss Seven is modelling for me uses a croc charm as a button, and it's so adorably cute I'm going to have to make more!

Playing with wire


I had a few hours to kill the other morning - too long to sit around, but not long enough to properly start an ami project, so I thought I'd try my hand at crocheting with wire. I had a strand of beautiful blue goldstone pieces, just perfect for the delicate base of chained wire. First off I made a bracelet. It's a lot prettier than the photos make it out to be, Blue Goldstone is hard to capture.


Then I added in some seed beads, and made a necklace - I fear it may be addictive, this jewellery making thing...


Yep, throughly addictive - but I had to make earrings to complete the set didn't I?
