Hat for Lauma

A flowers hat for little Lauma:

As Lauma lives far away and is not available for fittings I was afraid how it will lie on the model. I just received the pictures and fortunately it looks really good:

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.

Brooch day

I had a brooch day yesterday.
Karlīne wanted a red one with perls:

I need a bowl in brick colour with stone. As all my stones it comes from seaside. I must confess that I am cheating a bit - it is not completed yet because the felt is still wet and the stone is not sticked down.

Boresome cardigan

My ideas about this cardigan were magnificent before I started it. It should have been all embroidered and also decorated with ancient flower which I have written about already.

However I knitted garter stitch it didn't go fast anyway. And during I knitted thousands of another projects ideas were already in my mind. So I gave up the idea about embroidering. I kept only the very basic idea about the ancient flower ornament.

And so -

And here is the flower. The stem is not so blue, it is something like green-blue.

My first one felted flower

This is the result of my first felting class:

Organza flowers

I have learned something new for me:

Dandalion

This knitted dandalion is based on a simple but witty pattern, told me by a Norvegian lady at ravelry.com:

Flower from ancient ornaments

I found this ancient flower ornament here:

I decided to crochet it.

The result is not perfect actually. I should improve my pattern.
