Hooking again

No, my financial situation hasn't become so bad that I've had to resort to becoming a 'lady of the night' (although there is an ally next to my house should I ever need it!). Rather I am getting back into crochet. After reading this post over at Dottie Angel's utterly delightful blog I've decided to try my hook hand this


In the hope that it may (one day) become this:

On a side note, my historically informed niece told me that in the 1800s there were up to 7 brothels in my street!

Oh you're funny Rosie! Hopefully your crafting will keep you off the streets - although an alleyway and supporting heritage evidenc it's good to know you have options!!!

A pub and a parlour on every corner, those were the days! It's nice to be making something cosy & pretty as we head into winter isn't it? And I love the portability of crochet. Have fun! xo
