Channelling the beach


Must be summer - everything i want to make has to do with the beach. Finally worked up the starfish hat i've wanted to try for literally decades. It's pretty hard - takes way more of a math mind than comes naturally to me. The starfish purse works up easily - thinking a necklace string of starfish... I posted a beach toned cotton newsboy cap, perfect for the beach. This year's beach dress is blue gingham, might add a waist ruffle on next instalment.

Continue to work up baby sets, now that i have a formula i like for a gift basket - the crochet flannel strips on box board base. For more detail on basket, see my ravelry project under Uncoolmomo4. I really think twice when i see a jello or kd package in the blu ae box....

Gave away a really cute Debbie Bliss bear to one of my kid's teachers as a new baby gift - before i took a picture, arrrggghh. The teach did love it tho. Body parts of 2 more of these bears currently coming on.

Still questing for perfect knit/crochet baby dress. Want to be able to use up various complementary cotton. Thinking crochet skirt, knit knot tie top. Kind of hooked on embroidered lazy daisies.

Well, enough journaling. Time to finish those bears!
