Another great pattern!

Just to catch up with both online patterns I purchased recently - I actually finished the crochet bracelet by Little Treasures last week and didn't get a chance to post about it.  A lovely pattern which worked out exactly like the picture on the cover - it fitted perfectly too! . . .


I really loved the little domed button feature - it's a lovely touch . . .


All in all, a great little make which I'd definitely try again . . .


I'd better get back to some tweedy work this week - it's been lovely to get back to a little knitty and crochet work though - I really missed it!

And here's a cute little vase I picked up in the charity shop on the way to work last week, just perfick for the odd posy or two!  Not bad for 50p I thought, hehe . . . (my youngest commented how the flowers matched the pattern on the vase perfectly - how sweet of him to notice something like that!) . . .


I can see how the 'thrifting'/charity shop thing could become VERY addictive - my library books (OK I eventually caved in and purchased both from Amazon!) have a lot to answer for - oooops!

Happy Monday!

Lovely crafty bracelet- 'handmade jewellery' :)

I could see the bracelet being used as a prom corsage--and it would last forever, unlike real flower corsages!

Yes, thrift-shopping can be a lot of fun--and more expensive than you intend when you keep putting things in your basket! :)
