Crocheted WaterBottle Bag I hope your weekend is going well so far!I started making thisCrocheted Water Bottle Bag last night and have been doing more today - it's a really easy pattern to follow. I might try THIS one next - a cute 'Smiling Sunflower Bag'. I'm using Patons Smoothie DK 100% Acrylic yarn, Colour 2102 (Blue Mix), (used previouslyHERE) with a 3.5mm hook, I'm not sure if it's going to be big enough though, so if I do it again I may use a slightly larger hook and thicker yarn.

A quick one... I'm sure everyone is going mental this weekend preparing for Christmas... 6 days away... sheesh! I am quite certain the last time I looked which i swear was yesterday (ahem) there was at least another 10 days added to that number.

I instead thought I'd leave a recent new image that I hope to add to the collection in my hat shop after Christmas, and give ya'll a sneak prev... read more »

I have LOADS of hat orders to get through for Christmas which is a really nice feeling as I don't think I've been this busy before with either of my stores. Since Black Friday things have just continued to pick up and it's bloomin' marvelous! Besides a bit of sleep deprivation I feel really good about what's happening and praying that it... read more »

Sunday - Coffee and Cakeweekly mommy babble and handmade goings on...Spam alert! ... I am holding my breath a bit at the moment. I'm not so certain if it's because of the weekend but a certain spammer under two names (Gucci Outlet and Coach Outlet) has ceased tormenting my blog archive full of irrelavent comments linking back to their commecial *shudders* web stores. I dont wish to be a turd about the fact my site is for handmade goods and handmade artisan features, but I was a bit perplexed at the fact ... read more »
Sunday - Coffee and Cakeweekly mommy babble and handmade goings on...Grump-o-meter... Halloween went down without a hitch, with taking a dunk in a makeshift bobbing for apples pot, a minimal healthy Halloween feast, and a visit from a close friend who became the subject of torment... ahem play time from my little boy lol!. It was the highlight of the week, and soon to be followed with a pretty rough time of things. I have had a bit of a high strung week since Halloween, but there has been a lot happening... read more »

I have always been like that in many ways, and was pretty well known in my teenage years for being the one that still thought cartoons were cool (still do.... ahem). Nowadays I am very much inspired by my kids, amigurumi styling and my inner "girl" (I'm a bit of a tomboy nowadays).Jarg0n on Etsy is an artist that I feel an affin... read more »
