This pattern has been under way for quite some time. It could be argued that I have been procrastinating over it, although that wouldn’t be me to do that at all…
I actually really enjoy working this pattern and have another sample ready for photography once the light and the weather is more co-operative. [...]
Today nine superb tapestry crocheters were hatched at the library in Skive in Denmark, another great day and I think the pictures speak for themselves!

I have not exactly been going to bed early the last week or so and that is for a very good reason, if I may say so myself. I allowed myself to indulge in a spot of my all time favourite crochet discipline, namely tapestry crochet.
I have harboured the idea for a colourful handbag for [...]
I have finally found a workaround for the handles of the handbag I started in June. I couldn’t finish it there and then as the vintage handles I had stashed were first hidden in ‘a safe place’ and when they finally showed up, they turned out to be unsuitable for the bag.

My love of colour work, which was always confined to knitting, I felt, has truly found a home. My plan this autumn and winter is to dip into the stash of beautiful coloured pure wool [...]
Last night was Culture Night and my local village was teeming with activity. First of all, we launched the Tinahely Arts Group with a beautiful group exhibition, then there was crowd theatre, a play by a local playwright at the arts centre and not least an outdoor movie.
I entered my Congregation Vessel in the exhibition [...]

I am working on making some nice small patterns for the workshop on Saturday in Tapestry Crochet and I am trying to create some simple design patterns that will have maximum visual impact and will make it simple enough for the participants to get the technique.
Yesterday I ran this little bag off the hook and [...]
