WOYWW #115 - PLENTY

This week I am back at the kitchen table where there is plenty going on.



Some new balls of wool for my Granny Blanket.

My friends' tea pot - she would like me to make her a tea cosy for it. Now I did start to knit this but whilst flicking through my new Crochet Magazine I found a fantastic pattern for a crocheted tea cosy - so I might just have a go.  I'm not sure this is what she had in mind though when she asked me.

My Smash Book - brimming with ideas of things to make and do.

On the right hand side in the middle is peeking another Kornisse half done, I need to make his hat.  Also some more corks waiting to be 'dressed'.

On the left hand side there are my Family Photos which I am still scanning and trying to organise to put in an album.  Below the photos there are some tea towels that I bought to make something for Small - maybe a draught excluder for his bedroom - not that it is draughty but I saw a fabulous one at a friends' house recently, and I wanted to make it.  Watch this space.

And that's it for me this week.  Pop over the Julia's for more workdesks - go on - it's fun (and who doesn't like snooping at other people's stuff?).

What a lot of fab projects you've got on the go!! I really do love your granny blanket, it makes me wish that I could crochet. I am knitting at the moment and am really enjoying it as I haven't done any for a while! xx Have fun creating this week :)

Brilliant table this week and that tea cosy is fantastic, you need to make that! Our friends son was quite shocked to see our tea pot wearing it's cosy a couple of years ago and yelled to anyone within earshot that the teapot was wearing a hat! Old habits die hard as I'm English but living in America!!

I make scrap afghans like yours (one large granny) a lot. Probably my favorite way to use up scrap yarn.

Can't decide what to look at first you have so much on the go! I like the teapot cover! And your spotty table cover is lovely too.

Love your bright and colourful work table. New balls of yarn must do the same for you as new sheets of paper do for me - do you stroke them too :) Elizabeth x #70
