December

There is something I don’t love about December… It is the stress behind this season… The stress sometimes takes out all the beautiful mood you should be feeling in this holy season… I am a “routine” kind of person… I love my every-day and try to just live the moment… Every year I tell myself I should begin early with the Christmas preparations so I don’t stress and stress all my family…

So, this year, I began early …

The house is already on Christmas mode…

The tree is up…

The gifts are (almost) ready and packed…

There is good chocolate in every corner…

Every single detail is pretty organised in my beloved yellow filofax…

I am even finding some time to crochet…

and add some squares to the granny blanket which is slowly but surely growing 🙂 (Will it become a bedspread?)

I have even picked up an old wip and I’m falling in love with it all over again…

So, my friend, this year, I am trying to relax and just enjoy this holy season without stress…

And I wish you the same 🙂

Relax, take it easy and have a beautiful warm week filled with joy, laugher and Christmas spirit.

Crocheted blankets, for babies, Ripple, scarf, wips

Rippling…

Good morninnnnnnnng!

Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments and e-mails concerning the table runner… I am very happy that you liked it 🙂

How was your week end? Mine was lovely… lot of crochet…ripples, ripples … joyful ripples…

Do you remember the baby boy blanket I started here? Well, I worked on it… Have to finish it before the mummy gives birth in July 😉

I’ve made some progress…look…

I am not used to work with these colours…that’s why it is taking me ages to finish it …

but I am loving it so far….

And I started something with the lovely yarn of Joumana…Remember here?

This alpaca yarn is terrific… so beautiful…so soft…I had to make something for me to wear it on my skin 🙂 It is selfish I know 😉

So, I started a scarf….it will be a long long ripples-scarf for me … I love these colors…

Did you spot my new phone case? Of course you did 🙂 I love it!

Today’s post was all about ripples …I am working on my happy blankie too …

I am so blessed I have crochet in my life 🙂 Do you feel the same?

Have a lovely week my friend!

Flowery scarf………………………….D O N E :)

Good morning sweeties,

How are you today? Here the sun is shining, birds singing and I am in a very happy mood 😀

I finished yesterday my scarf and I must admit it is a very easy process making and the result is wonderful…

Let’s have a peek, shall we?The scarf , as you see here, is long enough to wrap it two times around my neck… It makes a 208cm long and 23cm large…I think it is the perfect dimensions for a neck warmer 😉

I crocheted it using the leftovers of my Stylecraft special DK yarns I bought online from here…

… with a 3mm crochet hook.

Now, I have to concentrate on my fairy tale blanket (the one and only project in my hands for the moment 🙂 ) and try to finish it before beginning anything else (that’s what I always say and never do 😉 )

Our “move” (to a new home) is in one week (on the 28th)…the count down has begin…I am feeling so excited and a little stressed about the coming weeks…cross your fingers that everything will go well…

And now I must leave you and go back to my fairy tale which I’ll show you the progress done so far next time 🙂

Until then, I wish you a wonderful weekend wherever you are around the globe…

Kisses,

Sucrette

New scarf project and a pattern :)

Good morning my friend,

How are you today?

I was so inspired two days ago after seeing the lovely post of Lucy about her new shawl project…so inspired that I took my hook right away and tried the pattern she used…

The pattern is lovely but I wanted to make a long scarf , something like a long neck warmer you know what I mean? and this pattern was kind of “bold” for a scarf…I wanted something “lighter” (Is that a word?)

So, I took an old crochet magazine and transformed my way a pattern made originally for a doily…and I loved it so much……so much…that I crocheted a flower and after another flower etc…with leftover yarns….

…so much that I made right away a graphic pattern for the modified version of the original pattern…

…so much that I want to continue making a long series of flowers to make a very long scarf I can wrap it two or three times around my neck…

so? what do you think? Do you want to join in? You can make a “light” shawl with this pattern too or some coasters maybe 🙂 I have to leave you now and return to my new project 🙂 (so excited about it!!!!!!!!!)

Have a beautiful week end!
