The 8th Gem: December 2013

Just a little Christmas Crochet

A Linen mix to go with my Christmas Holiday outfits....

tried to make a blue bag before i went away, but didn't manage to finish, so i took some Linen/cotton mix with me to make something while in Lanzarote for Christmas.

Using the same motif design..

had to make something to wear as my luggage would have been over the weight limit coming back.

as I bought a kilo of yummy cotton yarn...and only 2.50 euros for a 100grms.

next time I will bring back lots more...such a great price and so many gorgeous colours too.

hope you all had a fantastic Christmas
