January into February...

Already we are well into February, which I have designated 'felt' month - after the fun I had making the 'partridge in the pear tree' ornaments. My plan is to complete as many of the remaining days as I can this month, and also to try some felting in 2 and 3 dimensions.

But January was learn to crochet month and I was delighted by the 'Learn to Crochet' CAL from the crochet project. A cowl, hat, mitts and shawl later I feel I have mastered the left hand yarn management technique and am now looking with enthusiasm at various blanket clubs and CALs. Sock making goes on a-pace too - an order for four pairs this month from a colleague I worked with nearly 30 years ago.

A cowl, bobble hat, fingerless mitts and a shawl. Fun to do.

The first three days: a partridge, pear, two turtle doves and three French hens!
