I made the flowers above for Indi as part of her costume for a Christmas in July party.

I made the flower below to experiment with the effects of painted wool.

And of course I made some washers.

Made and pulled apart many a time.

Hooking new patterns with a sick child on your lap is not ideal.

I loved making this Spring Fling washer.

I got the pattern from here.

And I had another go at the Scalloped Washcloth.

This time I used a smaller hook (3mm) and doubled the size.

The scallops look neater than last time but the edges are still a bit dodgy.

I am finding crochet patterns that start in the center and work outwards easier than those that work from side to side. I think I must have difficulty working out where the last stitch in the row is because the sides never end up straight.

This morning I made The Flower For Spring Dishcloth.

I'd like to make this one again at some stage with some matt cotton.

And although I hooked them and pulled them apart many times, the edges didn't turn out evenly.
