I made my son a winter hat or "beanie," as we call them in SA, and all his art student friends thought it was great! We now have a thriving business going. You can guess of course who is making the money and who is doing the work! I really do enjoy making them though, especially now that the weather has turned cooler.
I'm not quite sure how the jacket came about, I can assure you that isn't the usual dress code!
This is a blanket I made for someone who is having a baby using tunisian crochet. It's sort of a mixture between knitting and crochet. You use a looooong crochet hook and pick up all the stitches as you would on a knitting needle and then cast them all off again. I'm sure there are other patterns but this is the only one I know!
It makes a beautifully soft blanket if you use 4 ply wool and quite a thick needle. The crochet flower is just a bit of detail for fun!
