Scarf weaved on a frame

As my English terminology is very poor in this field the explanations also will be poor. However I hope you will understand. What is needed - a rectangular frame with small holes (every 1 cm) on the edges and 2 extra holes on the corners. Using this you get a triangular scarf.



You begin with the top yarn. Take the left end. Fix it on the diagonal yarn to make a small knot.


So weaving begins. Start from the right top corner and go to the bottom. Technique is very simple - up, down, up, down.





And here it is!

Christmas water-lily

I had nothing to wear on Christmas party. I have my old dress only. Luckily I have heard - it's allowed to wear old dress if you have some new accessory and noone will notice that you have had the same dress on previous party already. Well, I crocheted a shawl and made an organza water-lily to my old dress. I hope that will be enough.
