Mum’s Visit
Tag Archives: crochet
crocheted blankets
- Scrap wool rug I made from wool Mum gave me. Still a favourite.
- El cheapo wool rug, it’s quite pilly but fabulously warm!
- Ross rug (acrylic) – I made this to match the previous lounge room furniture, Ross won’t part with it now, so I guess “who cares about matching?”
- Small knee rug to take when travelling, Ross has a purple one the same.
- I made this acrylic squares rug to match our brown leather couch. I don’t know what got into me because nothing else much around here matches.
- Left over yarn rug, I made this from the acrylic yarn left after I had made my ponchos. It makes for a good seat warmer when picnicing in the winter.

hat and cuffs in yellow and brown
ponchos and shawls
These are a lot warmer than they look.
blue doily and pot holders
bathroom stool doily
What to do with pink plastic thread that Mother purchased because it was on special??
Why, a stool doily of course!
Inspiration came from this site: Wood and Wool Stool
doilies and top
This top I made using a pattern from an ex-library book my wonderful Mother bought for me, out of bed spread weight cotton.
Even though I need to wear a light weight cotton singlet underneath it is lovely and cool to get out and about in.
Things I would change: I joined the seams with slip stitch, I now know to do this with single crochet.
That lovely froggy there was made by Phyllis, ain’t he cute!
Baa baa wax sheep, you haven’t any wool.
What is a creamer doing in my bedroom do I hear you ask? I am dairy intolerant so I use it for watering the three plants in my bedroom, they only need a little drink each day.
