She Who Makes from String

Saturday, April 13, 2013

I have been wanting to make this pattern for a long while.

I like the results, but I have to learn how to finish slick yarn.

This lovely bamboo/silk keeps sliding out.

Mmmm... I finally made Chocolate Hazelnut Spread.

It was labor intensive, I admit.

It doesn't taste much like Nutella(tm), but it is good.

And The Girl Child loved wearing her earmuffs inside while the food processor whirled away.

Hi,

I would like to make a plea for some some

sunshine

and

bearably warm temperatures

here, please, please, pretty please!!

Thank you.

We are experiencing a very cold beginning to Spring this year.

We have made a point to get out and enjoy any sun that comes our way.

We also are getting out in the cloudy weather, because being cooped up inside is getting old.

Here are a few photos from our adventures out during this school holiday.

We recently watched The Waterhorse, the kids loved it.

I made them their own for an Easter gift.

The pattern it from Amigurumi Knits by Hansi Singh.

Not a beginner project, unless you are really determined.
