Lovely crochet, lainey! Your card is so elaborate, NoWomanNoCry! Good work! I have nothing to share (just cleaning/reorganizing my scraproom, an eternal chore), but I love seeing what everyone else is working on. |

@bumpsy that is beautiful, and I love the colours too! Makes me wish I could crochet - I can knit just about anything but just can't get the hang of crochet for some reason! I have so much yarn I could use up in a blanket like that!! |

My son went to prom with his girlfriend and a group of friends. I decided I wanted to try my hand at making the boutonniere and a couple of corsages. There were more girls than boys in their group, so I made 2 wrist corsages. Never again! Bows and I do not get along very well.  They don't look too bad, but I spent way to much time and money. Lesson learned! ![]() |

No pics at the moment but am feverishly attempting to create a handful of bracelets I can wear to the up coming All Star softball tournaments my daughter will be participating in. Proud of her and her great 8U season and being selected. Dad is working to make on for each of her teammates as well |

I've been smocking, embroidering and sewing up a storm getting ready for my new heirloom clothing Etsy store. So far I have a Christening gown, a day dress and a boys Christening romper finished. Working now on a linen boys outfit and some blankets.

Thank you for sharing everyone. BarbaraUK and @dknitter I wish my knitting skills were better, I can manage simple things but patterns still baffle me for the most part and my tension is all over the place. Can I ask what needles you use? I haven't found any I'm really comfortable with. |

Thank you for sharing everyone. BarbaraUK and @dknitter I wish my knitting skills were better, I can manage simple things but patterns still baffle me for the most part and my tension is all over the place. Can I ask what needles you use? I haven't found any I'm really comfortable with. I use the Knit Pro Symfonie range of wooden knitting needles @bumpsy and feel more comfortable with the longest length, though I know some people prefer shorter needles. I've tried most knitting needles I think and these just suit me....and they are always warm to the touch and easy on the hands. Adding this link just so you can see what I mean - Knit Pro Symfonie Needles. They are about half way down the page. And you should see my attempts at crochet!!  |

I tried to learn to knit and crochet at the same time and found crochet the easiest so stuck with it. |

Can I ask what needles you use? I haven't found any I'm really comfortable with. I use 7" double pointed needles for my socks. I'm not picky but lately I've been in love with Clover's bamboo needles. I also use metal ones, either Bates or the yarnology ones from Hobby Lobby. Like I said, I am not picky at all. |
