Happy Birthday ...

Hello

Just popping in with some quick birthday cards...

This first one I am entering in the 'Less is More' challenge HERE.  I also need to give credit for the inspiration of this card to the wonderfully talented Christina for THIS card.

I have tried this style of card before HERE, and for some reason needed to try another one.  I really do love using names on cards for kids, but sometimes you just can't fit it in anywhere.  This is my solution...

Have a great Easter

Crochet {two}

Hello

Here is another crochet project that I was asked to do a couple of weeks before Christmas.  A Christening Shawl.   It needed to be done before I went away and I had no pattern, but I did have a chrochet shawl that my oldest son recieved when he was born, so I copied that.

I am sorry but I don't have the exact measurements, and I was so rushed with it, I didn't write the pattern down ...

Fortunately I was able to work out the correct stitches and did more rows on each section as the yarn and crochet hook were a different size.

Yarn:  'Spring clour' Cotton (Benidgo Wool Mills)

Hook:  4.5 mm

Thanks for stopping by

and have a great day!
