4KCBWDAY5 - Something a little bit different!

Today's Knitting and Crochet Blog Week task has been a massive challenge - to blog in a different way to the way I normally do.  That really only left 2 options, audio or video.

I have opted for a video blog. A pretty big challenge although not as hard as I thought it would be.  It has taken me 5 attempts to record my final video (mainly because I have no idea how to edit it!) but I am pretty pleased with it and watching it back and listening to myself was not as painful as I thought it would be.

I'm hoping to post some video tutorials up in the future so let me know what you think of my first attempt at a video blog.

Until tomorrow,

WiP Wednesday - Shhh! It's a secret.

Hello again. Apologies for not writing a WiP post last week but I'm back on the wagon this week so here goes!

Crochet
I'm still working on Mr Bunny's Lego blanket (which is going to take a while I think) and I've made some progress on my Granny Square coat and have nearly completed the first sleeve!
I made a cotton dishcloth in funky colours for the current Caithness Craft Collective swap and have started work on a new baby gift for my friend who is due to give birth any day now!  pictures of both of these projects will be shared once they have been received by their new owners!

Sewing
I've also been designing and sewing this week for my shop! I've had plans for some crochet hook pouches for some time and have finally made them. They are made from funky cotton prints with interfacing to make them more sturdy. The hook holder is felt as it is 'sticky' and great for stopping hooks from slipping out. They fasten with a rather cute ribbon loop and button.  These are currently for sale in my Folksy shop and can be made to hold crouchet hooks, Tunisian crochet hooks and knitting needles!

What have you been up to this week?

Until next time.
