I have finished my crochet vest/tank top and I mean completely finished, sewn in the ends AND blocked! The last two of these usually take me a while to get round to. I shall hopefully find time to blog on friday and show it to you. I've been working away on my cross stitch wedding sampler but find I can't cope without a crochet project on the go at the same time. So I have started on a crochet holiday/beach bag. The pattern is Slouch Bag from Nicki Trench's book

My sister got me the book for christmas but this is the first pattern I've made from it. I'm quite enjoying using the Catherine wheel stitch as something a bit different.

First side is already finished so shouldn't take too long to do although everything seems to be going crazily busy right now. Be sure to pop by everyone else's blogs and see what they've been making there's loads of lovely things in some delicious colours

That's a beautiful pattern for a beach bag, lovely colours too.

I usually put-off finishing projects too. It's a terrible habit I've developed. The beach bag is going to be beautiful! The colors you've chosen are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThese two colors are perfect for spring and summer. Can't wait to see your tank vest.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very cute pattern, I have seen this book and I thought about getting it....would you recommend it?
