it will probably come as no surprise that i’ve become addicted to pinterest over the christmas break
i’ve just made a new ‘pinboard’ to showcase crochet ideas and gifts – mine and other people’s

i love experimenting … i made two crochet cuffs featuring beads and hardware
however, one cuff sold before i had a chance to photograph it
this one i got in time
the beads are sustainable wood
the buttons are from my stash and the washers came from the hardware section at our local supermarket
for sale – click here
after not doing any scrumbling for a while (too busy with subversive and other crochet), here are 2 which i made for a freeform crochet round robin
i took these photos with my phone … not the best quality, but you get the picture <=)
this one is going to someone who wanted pinks with a touch of red –
and this one is for a person who just loves aqua and orange –
the flowers are loosely arranged – the recipient can then add them wherever they like
i’m sending the beads as an extra little gift, for embellishment …

i just love the work of this dutch artist … it’s so nice to know there are more people who do subversive crochet + stitch
my parents were dutch so i feel a link to her and her work in more ways than one …
some pictures to tempt you –
here’s the link to her website – check out the gallery and other links, and don’t be put off by it being in dutch … the art speaks for itself –
