Not a lot happening in the craft room except a couple of little jumpers for the Penguins .. They are so easy to make , the thought of the little characters wearing them brings a smile to my face...

Such a cute little fellow :))

 A  bath toy I have had for years has come in handy for this prop..:)) 


Have a great week and happy crafting:))

For the life of me....

I don't seem to be able to make a small pompom..Arhhhh.... Not to worry ..... here is my pic of the Baby Cape that can be found on Pammy sues blog with a lot of other goodies to crochet and to eat :))

 The colour is not true as it is creamier, more than a stark white.

I crocheted the cape in Bedigo Woollen Mills.. 8ply, colour Almond, Classic..100% Wool 200g... #4.00mm hook...

I loved crocheting the cape the wool is so soft to use... Would I make another...??? Yes indeed...:))

Happy crafting :))
