January always seems like a perfect time to work with yarn. Through the years I've made lots of small things, a couple of afghans and baby blankets, many purses, hats, and scarves, but never anything that is meant to fit. How I envy the people with the skill and patience to finish sweaters and socks. I really like little projects best, I guess. I think maybe it stems from the years of making things to sell at craft shows. Here's just a couple of pictures. I made a lot of tea cozies for a while. I really liked this one. The tie is adorned with buttons, beads, and charms.
The brooch is a little large. I guess I should have known when the pattern said "peony". I found it here, and I'll be wearing it on my jacket at work today. I guess I'll see how many people laugh. It's my own little homage to spring, now that winter has finally begun in the midwest!
I love peonies! Looks lovely. I envy your knitting skills. I seem to be completely inept when it comes to yarn. Hugs, Pam
ReplyDeleteHi there. I am a friend of Pam's. She is a sweetie for sure. She said you might need a ((((((HUG))))) beginning this New Year. So sorry that last year was so full of sadness. I know that pain will go on forever but I am hoping that this year will bring you some peace.

I read Pam's blog and I saw her suggestion so I stopped by. Grief sucks that's for sure. It never gets better with time as there is always a holiday, anniversary etc. It just sucks. I'm sorry for you loss. Your blog is lovely and showcases your talent for sure. CG Jung says the psyche lives on after someone passes. I'm sure you're paying attention.

I just came from Pam's, too. I am loosing my husband to Stage four Pancreatic cancer which has spread to his liver so I could understand. I have one daughter and lost premature twins and have a neuropathic disorder and am in a scooter for distance. We are also the family that no one wants to be. I did go To Silver Bella, too. There is some joy in my life!!!
ReplyDeleteI, too, wish for some peace for you and some lessening of pain.
Fondly,
Suz
Cute brooch-- I haven't seen jewelry made like this in so long, I forgot it exists! A boon for those of us that can't wear lots of metal.
