  • Merry Christmas to you and your family and loved ones. Hopefully you'll have a few relaxing days before starting the new year and getting back into daily routine. Over Christmas we will be visiting family here and abroad before we escape to a quiet place for New Year's Eve...
  • The shortest day of the year in my part of the world is even shorter because of the dark and rainy weather we are having... Perfect conditions for @dilleenkamille Christmas tea! And some crochet maybe...
  • In between some last minute gift shopping and other Christmas preparations I'm working on this. The #nohurry #comfortcrochet project...
  • We had the first snow of the season overnight... But it came a week early! 😊 Well, we enjoyed it anyway and so did Bono! ❄️❤️❄️
  • I felt the need for a new no-hurry comfort crochet project. These are the colours that I've picked for a pattern by @it.is.a.sarah called #rechtedriehoeksjaal. The yarn is @scheepjes #merinosoft. A few balls are new and others are from my stash.
  • A few days ago @freulebel asked me what I was up to #thistimelastyear. It appears that I was much more into a #christmas mode back then than I am now 😊. I came across this photo of a batch of freshly baked #mincepies. I love them! I'm going to look for a jar of mince meat in my cupboards and hopefully I can bake some this weekend...
  • One more photo of the #oliviashawl... Yes, it has #tassels! I used the last bit of my yarn to make them. They turned out nice an fluffy. I love them! How about you? Do you like tassels as a finishing touch? Pattern by @myrosevalley Yarn is @langyarns_official #merino120
  • Yay! It's the #oliviashawl, a lovely pattern by Annette of @myrosevalley! It's very comfy and warm and warm and I love it 💕! Yarn is @langyarns_official #merino120
