A warning

Hello dear ladies

I hope you are all enjoying your Sunday afternoon. Thanks for all the lovely comments you posted on the little baby things.....more little garments coming soon!

This is just a quickie to share the amazing crochet work of Olek, queen of the hook. It is all a bit mad and I think it is a warning to crochet addicts everywhere - this is what will happen if we keep buying yarn and making things!!! Enjoy xxx

You can see more of this hooky craziness here

  3. Love your new profile picture!

    I could do with a crocheted suit at the moment - things are a bit cool here in wet and windy Lancs.

    Hope that your bit of Yorkshire is warmer.

  12. She's one of a kind for sure! Here's one for you: http://mingyisung.com/gallery/gallery.html

    Perhaps obscene and offensive to some, but definitely wacky in my book!

  14. Hi Andrea, keep trying to leave you comments, sorry you didnt get one re the award but glad you visited me!
    Yes I think red valerian is lovely in a cottage border, its a classic! Saw it a lot at Chelsea in borders there, and have some here in my garden - i love it - the white one is great too.
    If you email me your address i will post you some of those Honesty seeds so you can grow some.
