When all else fails...

It's happened.
I've lost my Crochet Mojo.
I don't know where it's gone or how long it's been gone for.
I've tried starting different crochet projects but they all just end up with me swearing & undoing them.
So I've started knitting again.

Crochet mojo

When you loose your Crochet Mojo, you try & try & try again.

The soles to the booties are supposed to be the same size, but no... my crochet mojo has gone and that means I have to undo & crochet again.
Arghhhh.

Giveaway

Eek, it' September already - what happened to January, February, Easter???? Are you asking yourself this? I am!  So to celebrate and to welcome in Spring here in my own backyard, I thought I'd celebrate with a giveaway!

Up for grabs are these 2 cute cross-stitch print fat quarters - cute huh!

I need your help.... please!

I need your advice - pretty please with cherries on top!

 

You see, I've made this cowl and well, I'm not happy with it. I thought it would sit nicely, softy over my chest but ugh, it doesn't - the yarn/crochet is too stiff, it's not long enough to wrap around my neck twice & I quite frankly feel like a duffus (as the photo shows!).

In the post...

Lookie!  Check what I received in the post the other day, a lovely parcel of delicious yarn!

I won a gift voucher for Yarn Glorious Yarn via Sarah London's beaut blog and this is what I chose!
I'm so happy with myself right now!!!  ;)
What would have you chosen?  I tried to choose yarn that I wouldn't normally purchase - I can't really justify spending $20+ on a ball of wool especially when I'm currently a SAHM!

Oppy finds

I popped into town today to pick up a couple of things and had 15 minutes to spare before I caught the bus back home again so I spent those precious minutes in the op shop near the bus stop!

   

I picked up this newly knitted, never worn hand-knitted jumper for bubba, it was only $3.99 - way cheaper than buying the cheapest sweater in the discount department store!
