A perfect shopping day…

Good morning sweet people around the globe,

Two days ago I received a phone call from my favorite yarn shop…The lovely lady there told me with her innocent voice: “We’ve got some new yarn with beautiful colors if you want to see ..come take a look” and you imagine my reaction…New yarn? mmmh….do I need new yarn? Didn’t I have enough? Should I go there? etc etc…but I couldn’t resist the temptation….I will go…I said to myself…I will go and I will only take a look…a smell and a touch 😀 and I WILL NOT BUY ANY!!

Hehe what a lie! Me …entering a yarn shop and leaving without any bag in my hands…hehe

So, as you guessed, I brought back home some new yarn…and I could’nt wait to show you….

First, I’ve got 10 Mirage yarn…

Mirage is a lovely 100% acrylic yarn thinner than the Nako Vizon one…It is worked with a 3mm crochet hook but I love its softness…a pure pleasure to work with…

and the colors are beautiful, don’t you think?

Then I’ve brought back also two “Nako Lollipop”

I don’t know why I bought them …I don’t usually love to work with a mixed-colored yarn (I can not find the name of that kind of yarn…sorry…) but I loved the colors and I said why not?…I can’t wait to try them…

and…to save the best for the last…

Something new in the Nako family…something called: Superlambs special …with stunning colors…I couldn’t resist…When I saw them I fall totally in love with their color choice…

They are a mixture 50%wool 50%acrylic worked with a 5mm crochet hook…

and I can tell you something …believe me or not…the colors are much more beautiful “live” than in the pics…

Bold but not too bright…just my kind of colors…

And I can not resist starting something with them…even though I have two wips on the go….could I resist? I don’t think so…

Have a colorful day my friend

and see you very soon 😉

Coucou!

Hello! Good morning sweeties!

Please meet Miss T. 🙂 She was in a hurry to meet you 🙂 She made you wait too long…and she’s terribly sorry 🙂

Yes, I was making her feets in my previous post…you could have never guessed eh? 🙂

Isn’t she cute?

I love this next dark pic…a lot 😀

I am so happy with my little cutie creation 🙂 When I was crocheting her, I was uncertain about the result…and I was hoping something cute will come out from these little pieces I was making….and sewing together…

but now, I am in love 🙂 and the girls too 🙂

and very proud to show it to you today 🙂

I took a million of step by step pics while creating Miss T. … and I’m off now to prepare a pattern 🙂

Here, it is snowing today, everything is white and the girls are at home (no school) pretty excited 🙂 , so we’re staying indoor in front of the mantel’s fire 🙂 a perfect day !

Hope you’re staying warm too!

Have a marvellous week end!

Crocheted blankets, granny squares, Love Birds, paintings, wips

Wips…

Good morning sweet friends!

It is monday already and February is at its end…Isn’t it great to feel that spring is not so far anymore? I hope on this monday morning that you’re feeling spring in your heart and that what counts 🙂

Today, today, today… just a small follow up on my wips…

The pile of squares of “Love Birds” is slowly growing …

It is a super feeling to see that yarn is slowly becoming small and the pile of crocheted squares is slowly growing 😉

I’m loving this blanket even though I’m working on it on a very slow rythm …one square maybe two/ a day…

I’ve began also a new painting…

This was a very small peek of the painting because it is just the beginning and beginnings are not always beautiful to see 🙂 Will show you more very soon…

I’ll leave you now with a last pic of “Love Birds” squares…

Thank you for your visit…

Have a wonderful week!

Corners of my home, Crocheted blankets, lovely books

Every day…

Good morning sweeties,

Every day, every single day, when the girls go to school and Hubby go to work, I begin my little walk through the house, looking around a smile on my face…

On the living room’s couch, there is always the same little mess, the kind of mess that I adore, the kind of mess I look at and my heart sings with joy…

the proof that we were all here yesterday evening, snuggled on the same couch, together enjoying family life … and this simple pic of my home’s mess makes my heart happy and my soul thankful 🙂

So, I do, every day, what all the mothers and the housewives around the world do, I pick up things from the floor (it seems I am picking all day long things from the floor), specially cushions and I try, as much as I can, to make home a less messy and a happier place to live in….Isn’t it our job ? 🙂

But today, with all the every day’s things I make usually, I have a small extra pleasure to share with you…my Christmas gift from me to me arrived two days ago 🙂 …(yes, the post in my country is soooooooo sloooooooooow…it takes ages to receive an online order…and sometimes you receive, sometimes you never 🙁

But this time, I received the lovely books I was so waiting for…and I so want to show them to you…

Can’t wait to open them, smell their pages and enjoyyyyyy them 🙂

Hope you have, in your life, every day a small extra pleasure to enjoy… it can be anything…a lovely book… a big hug…a kind word…or a ray of sunshine…

Big big kisses,

Sucrette
