MS3 clue 3


finished this yesterday, finding it a bit easier to keep place on the charts now, but can only do about 10 rows in a session before brain overloads.

My first Booga bag


Well, everyone else seems to have made one so heres mine for posterity. Nice and bright to contrast with the dull summer weather. Hope to post more MS3 once I have finished clue 2 (20 rows to do)

yarn spree

Went shopping today for fabric, and while there got 6 balls of DK for mindless summer crochet, one ball each of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Yes, I'm making a rainbow throw for DS2. wanted something to do while watching kids, and MS3 is a bit too intricate for that. No pics as camera batteries dies, now recharging them.

Opal rainforest socks


Finished these today after a break, so long a break that I sat down yesterday halfway through the second sock and thought I'd look at the first to see how much longer to make it, only to discover I'd lost the first sock. Panic and frantic tidying followed, finally found the first sock so now I have a pair.
