Good morning all.
Pop over to Sarah's Craft Shed and link up if you want to join in with our desk share. We are a friendly bunch!
I've had quite a busy week.
Above you can see some of the fluff and yarns that I dyed for Max. She always needs lots of textural bits and bobs for the undergrowth and hedgerows etc in her Tilly Tea Dance artwork.
Next, I used some of my denim to make a book cover. The little sheep landscape was on one of Maxine's Christmas cards for us. So, I am recycling it on the little pen pocket and will give it to her Dad for Christma. It is made with bits of his old jeans after all.😀
And then, I knitted this little sprout chocolate orange cover. It took ages and I won't be making another! I think Ben will like it as he also loves sprouts.
And lastly, I fancied knitting another twiddle mitt. I haven't made one for ages . The colours don't show up well here. The stripes beside the bobbles are grey with a lurex thread so it looks like snow. I will add a few winter theme twiddly bits later
So that's me for this week
Have a good week all!

I'm sure the sprout will be a winner. I love the colours of the latest twiddler.

So much fabric and yarn goodness on your blog today! The denim book cover is brilliant, especially with the Tilly upcycling as well and that sprout made me laugh, I’m sure Ben will really appreciate it! I didn’t think I’d appreciate the extension table being on but it works on so many levels so I’ll probably keep it there especially for bag making, stops everything dragging downwards!

I have seen little knitted covers like that before but not a sprout and that is brilliant, love it to bits. Looks like you've had a busy week, well done. Have a great woyww. Hugs Angela x10x
Loved all your different yarn pics today. I know someone who would love that sprout but if it was so fiddly probably won't make one!! I have lots of projects ready to start anyway!!
Happy WOYWW! Susan #7
Look forward to seeing the twiddler complete. Glad you made another.
Absolutely love the cover for the book, denim and the card from Maxine work so well together.

Take care and happy WOYWW

You have been busy! Your sprout is cute and I love your book cover, another great twiddler in the making. Happy WOYWW. Angela #13
Love the sprout cover and I am sure Ben will too Jo. That book cover is lovely and Max's picture is the perfect finishing touch. Happy belated WOYWW. Sarah
I love the blue jean book, and great re-use of a card! That sprout is so cute! But I can imagine the work it took to make it. Ben is a lucky boy to get a one-of-a-kind sprout! Your Twiddle mitt is coming along nicely! Have a wonderful week! Lindart #15
Some super makes this week, love the dying. I was at a textile (online) retreat last week and there was a lot of book covers in that although I didn't get that far with my samples. So love the sheep and have put a needle felting kit on my Christmas list this year. Love the sprout, love sprouts too but my son hates them. Adore the colour combo for the twiddle mitt, it's lovely.

...and your return comment made my heart sing too.
