WIP Wednesday!

Happy WIP Wednesday everyone! We had some kind of heatwave last weekend - which was really weird for October but nice though! we're back to our typical fall weather. But this year I try to be inspired by it instead of being frustrated. So next to my other fall craftiness I have two crocheting projects dedicated to fall, and they're really coming along nicely!

Christmas presents!

Fall has arrived and it's the perfect time to see how far along I am with my christmas presents!

The first present I made is the Comfy Grey Canada Cowl which is supposed to be sent to my aunt in Canada. Simple, but warm and comfy!

The second is one of my favourites, my Bohemian Bobble Cowl which is so soft and so versatile to wear!

I have been bad!

Somehow I have managed to not work on my YoP projects for weeks! I had planned to finish some of my WIP's and then start on some new projects. This resulted in exactly not that. Bad. Bad, bad, bad me!

So what have I been doing? Well... other things! I tested this scarf crochet pattern. I made two fall wreaths and a fall bucket list...

Fall's here!

Today it's officially fall! The trees are already changing colors and leaves are starting to fall down. And have you already made a to-do-list for this year's fall? I have!

Bobble diamonds and posts scarf - Pattern test

For the first time I was a "pattern tester" for a crochet pattern! It was such a different experience than just crocheting for yourself! The pattern test came from Marie Segares a.k.a. Underground Crafter and the pattern was called bobble diamonds and posts scarf.

Here's the final result!

Blogger's Blues? I'm back!

Hi everybody!! Long time no see!
I've been on a holiday for one week in August and after that I somehow really didn't feel like blogging untill today! Could I have had the blogger blues?

Anyway, I'm still very alive and I missed being in the blogosphere! My blogger blues are over :) and since fall is coming so soon, I'd thought I'd share 4 DIY projects to keep being crafty on those cold & rainy days! Hope it inspires you!

What better way to to welcome and celebrate fall: a fall wreath!
