A place to chat and share all things crafty!
What's your favourite craft? Is there anything you're working on at the moment? What would you like to create/work on (I have heaps of "one day" project patterns and ideas that I know I will probably never get around to, but it's nice to imagine)? I'd love to hear!
I have absolutely no artistic side to me and stick figures are the extent of my drawing ability, but I really enjoy learning and trying out new crafts. I learnt crochet during a stay in a prevention and recovery centre and it's something I pick up often when I am feeling blue, I need a distraction or I'm just a little bored. I've tried paper crafts too, although I didn't really get far with anything. Sharpies are some of my best friends and when I find my hands need to move I have a collection of smooth rocks that I draw on (different coloured circles) which often relaxes me. Sometimes I dust off the sewing machine and sew as well. I walk around spotlight for a fun outing 😉
Looking forward to hearing from you all 🙂
Here are some of the hundreds of coathangers I have covered with crochet, most of these are done in Tunisian Crochet, but both the two toned pink and black, and pink and white are the 'normal' crochet. I tied scraps together, rolled into a ball until large enough to do something with, then covered some hangers, the first one with the scraggly bits hanging off it is one done like that. It's got the tied end bits as a feature instead of having threaded them through to hide them.
