Αυτό που λέει ο τίτλος βασικά! Σήμερα έχουμε φωτογραφίες που μου έστειλε η φίλη μου η Βερόνικα, από το πρότζεκτ: "κουβέρτα" που έχει ξεκινήσει εδώ και καιρό- και τώρα κοντεύει να τελειώσει. Με το που τις είδα σκέφτηκα ότι πρέπει να τις μοιραστώ μαζί σας!
όπως βλέπετε είναι σαν patchwork, από διάφορα πλεγμένα με βελόνες κομμάτια. Πολύ αρτιστίκ! :Ρ
απ'ότι φαίνεται η Βερόνικα πλέκει ΚΑΙ το καλοκαίρι ^_^ με δροσερά αναψυκτικά παρέα.
Πώς σας φαίνεται;
December is finally here!!
this means holiday mood, mittens and snow!Christmas tree with with extra festive accessories and tree ornaments! Sweet preparations in front of the open fire! Handmade presents and Christmas bazaars!
Double Crochets couldn't wait to feel this mood!! :) we are already creating unigue pieces for the next Past Tense bazaar and cannot wait for all of you to see them!
Besides, crochet and knitting couldn't fit more in this festive mood! What would be better than sweater weather with tea, cinnamon cookies and yarn crafts?
Well the perfect music has to be there also.
What I love listening to while crocheting during Christmas is "A Charlie Brown Christmas", an album by the Vince Guaraldi Trio, released in 1965. It is among the most popular Christmas music albums of all time and one of my favourites!
If you are not the biggest fan of jazz or Snoopy (if this can be possible..), here is another really nice Christmas playlist:
Even the most demanding could not resist to get in the mood.
So let's get started! Pick your favourite yarn, your hooks and needles and make some Christmas presents!
What music do you usually listen to while creating for your loved ones? And what would be your playlist for Christmas crocheting?
Panagiota and myself, are crazy busy bees at this time of year, and we find it hard to save time for crocheting/knitting, that's the main reason why you can find us crocheting/knitting at the strangest places! Most commonly you will meet us crocheting in the bus, the metro, at bus stations. The second most common place is the cafeterias, and lastly in parks, public spaces and benches! Wherever we have some time to spend it crafting, usually while doing something else, we just do it.
Here are some photos of needle work actually happening, and some photos of us exaggerating with the concept of strange places, just for fun!
double crochet's club meetings, at a cafeteria
at the Athens Concert Hall
at a fashion show of Athens Xclusive fashion designers week
at the Greek Parliament
at a park on knit in public day
by the sea!
and a member of our club, knitting at a common place, dressed in a strange way!
So these were our lovely strange places to crochet/knit documented until now!! We are planning to shoot more photos at strange locations while crafting, and we might shoot some more peculiar dressed people to crochet/knit. If you meet us somewhere that you wouldn't expect, please do say hi!
