deck the halls

Ok so I am.early  but who  hasn't noticed that Xmas is upon us ?

I had big plan for all my makes but between presents decorations have been lacking. I confess I put  decorations up for the whole of December  and that means in just over four weeks I can start putting up my treasures


So I looked  throughout things I 've already I made .

There was actually more than I thought  but didn't stop me adding to the collection 

This poka dot stocking  is from ravelry is was a suggestion for a face book cal but it was rejected so I made it myself . It was  quick and easy  and fun too . The pattern can be found on ravelry  if you fancy hanging one yourself 

Well I had best go  as being told to take it down lol

time for something new

My new magazine came yesterday and one thing caught my eye Tunisian crochet. There was a how to section and some Sun glasses case . So I set to work


Me and sunglasses case ha e a long crochet history it was about this time last year I first picked up hook and I did make a rather pathetic Sun glasses case which I was insanely proud off . However after thinking I had cracked crochet I was unable to make anything else.


I don't have any long Tunisian. Hooks so I used my normal trusty 4mm hook and or a raised a swatch peice. I was pleased it seemed easy and set to work

Here is the result of side one

 It's not to bad  but by second side was much neater as I got into the swing of it

 It makes a nice dense fabric  . I will definitely be buying a set of nice long hooks  if you fancy a go why not get copy of  @simply crochet  set your self a challenge bet you will be glad you did
