Tom's beannie finished....

Well, the afternoon consisted of me madly crocheting in between sips of tea and water (it's been quite sticky and hot here at the moment).
 I have been desperate to finish Tom's crochet earflap hat for him to wear at the Georgetown Folk Festival as he and his mates are in a band and I wanted him to look his best (not to mention to do some advertising for my crochet skills!!)
 
 I am very happy with how it turned out, it was a mixture of a few patterns, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he gets it!!!!  I was too tired to drive and see him tonight so he will have to wait till the morning to see it!

 Mum's poor Anniversary clock was moved here and there to try and get the perfect photo shot! I think it makes a pretty good hatstand don't you!

 My Tom will now be kept nice and warm in the Winter and even on those cold tassie summer days :)

A busy couple of days before the Georgetown Folk Festival.....

On a sunny day in the week I decided to do a spot of Crochet in the garden, was so nice crocheting with a change of scenery and I think the peace and quiet spurred me on even more to get my project done quicker.

 Here I sat down to crochet my 8 month old nephew "Memphis" a Granny Square ear-flap hat.

Here I had the wool all ready to start the hat, the material I chose this day from spotlight, the material will be used to back a matching scarf.

The album I love, I created it this day when I bought it from the oppie as an old photo album and stuck a crochet picture on the front, I just love the colour of the album.


 Here is the finished hat for my nephew, I can't wait for him to wear this in the winter time

I just love the colours and the style of the earflap hat!!!! I am very pleased with how it turned out :)

   Here is another nephew of mine (my partner's nephew) Finn, he is over from the mainland with his Mum, my partner and I met him and his mum at the park, we had a lovely time and were very lucky that it was such a sunny day too.

This is one of my favourite pics, my partner Tom holding Finn so he can reach some balloons that some children had up for a party at the Burnie at the Burnie Park

Here is the earflap hat that I am making for my Tom, it is a plain beannie pattern that I am crocheting and it will have ear-flaps that I will attach. I bought the wool yday on sale, the blue bobbly wool, I thought it would make a modern touch to the pattern. :)
So that was my week, I am gearing up for the Georgetown Folk Festival tomorrow, My boyfriend will be playing at the "York Cove Centre" I am sooo excited to be checking out the little town and going to some gorgeous tea shops and craft shops, stay posted as I will have some great pics from the event when I get back. I am planning to take my large lens and Nikon Camera :)
