My Creative Space

Back to what's brewing in My Creative Space today (though I will show the Princess and Minky's progress 'cause I can't help myself).


A long while ago I took a walk through nature, found some colours that looked great together


and chose some wool that, theoretically, should also look great together...
I learnt to crochet (well given my lack of attention to tension - still learning is more accurate), and here is the result.


Not quite what I had in mind. It's scrappy, but black was supposed to be dramatic. The 'dramat' is missing - all I get is the 'ic' part...in fact the s....py is missing from scrappy too!


In my creative space, I am adding a border in one of these colours - maybe yellow - to liven it up and find some sense of...mmm...cohesion...could be the word I'm looking for. There is also some weaving in of ends to be done.


Mind you...it's pure wool, it's WARM, and I can live with it on my knees in front of the tv.
Best of all, I know that I can do it. Some of the colours work well together - just not all at once. There is a better 'granny' in me yet!
So wander on over to Kootoyoo and have a look at all those creative types who are...well...creative...


thanks for taking a peek over the fence...


PS I just worked out how to make a mosaic of photos....mucho excited about that!
