My creative space…
I needed another “on the go” project.
Just a bit of meditative back & forth with a big hook & some lovely silky soft bamboo.
I’m calling it the peacock blanket.

I dyed some bamboo thread a while ago it was lovely and soft. Haven't done anything with it yet .. will get there. Hopefully this week I will have time to visit the other creative spaces, school holiday's is still in full swing and it is my son's birthday on the weekend and the World just stops for that.

Hi kirsty. I just had a look at your calender that "nobody would look at". kids are so good for the ego. I love August (the very comfy looking glasses) and November (the cocktail) and what is in your mouth in Feb??? Tell your son not to understimate the appeal of quirkiness!!!

..Ahem… if you need another "on the go" project I know of a GREAT unfinished /possibly never to be completed or perhaps in time for her moving out blanket I started for Busy about 1000 years ago…it is crocheted, there is a picture of it in my header, it still looks exactly the same 6 months later…

Lovely, nice to spend some joyful time to relax:) Love the colours, I lived on a farm once with a peacock called Charlie, what a character! Love the bamboo too, isn't it sooo soft
Enjoy!

Scrummy colours. Although I couldn’t fail to notice that you are not weaving in ends as you go. Just sayin'…
Mel

Yes I need an on-the-go project myself. Today I found myself at the Dr's surgery for half an hour WITH NOTHING TO DO! What a massive waste of crafty opportunity!
Hey and nice one on the notebook diary. It looks great.

Such scrumptious colours!
I just love bamboo yarn, I made some hats for my bub before she was born (and they all turned out to be waaaay to small), and would just rub them on my cheek to feel their softness.

Love the colours you are using and if I didn't have two throws, a baby blanket, a hat, a scarf and two thistles on the go I would certainly start another project in your colours.
