wee splash of colour...

...yep, there's nothing like a wee splash of colour to provide some inspiration on a grey, soggy monday morning (and afternoon) ~ i'm so in love with this granny blanket by sandra juto and dottieangels collection of vintage multi-coloured knitting needles...

...and finally, here's a wee teaser of my own colourful crafty collection...

...crocheted goodies as far as the eye can see ~ at least that's what if feels like in my wee studio! no matter which way i look at the moment there's some kind of crochet project that i'm working on and each one at a different stage of completion...

...and do you know what? ~ i absolutely love it!

...i have known how to crochet for as long as i can remember, but in the last year or so i have fallen in love with it all over again :) the act of actually doing it is so rhythmic and soothing, and being able to work so freely with colour is incredibly therapeutic. it's also such a versatile craft and every time i finish or start a new piece my brain is flooded with ideas and possibilities that i just want to start immediately ~ but, all in good time as i only have one pair of hands :)

...not to worry though, more pics of these lovelies will follow soon when they will be landing in my wee etsy shop...
