A lot of colour

My new project



It took me a while till I'll found a new project. It will be a nice crochet blanket I hope sooner than later. I'll give up dates on it.

Now it's done and somebody claimed it already!!

Out of T-shirts

Out of T- shirts

My next tutorial is a rug out of old T-shirts. It was a long battle till I finished it up. At the end I start to dislike it, because it was not done quick enough. Sometimes I'm not very patient in my craft and a lot of my stuff goes into the trash it makes me just mad. I know not the smartest move but at this moment I cant just stop my temper. I wish you good luck with this one and a lot of fun.

 

You need:

 

A stash of T-shirt yarn

crochet hook

a sewing needle

fishing line

and a scissor

 

 

 

 

 

 

you chain between 35 and 65 it depends how big you wanna have your flower. I had different sizes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the next row is just out of single crochet stitches

 

 

 



next row is 1 sc in next stitch, 2 sc in next st,2 dc in next st 2 tr in next stitch, 2 dc in next st,2 sc in next st, rep after 2 sc

 

 

at the end wave the ends in

Begin from one side and start to sew the flower together like a spiral

 

 



at the end you sew all flowers together,

 

yes you need a lot flowers but it looks great in kimmy's room

How to cut a bottle, don't do it like i did

How to cut a bottle

Well, that is my first time to blog something. I'm not a pro in that kinda stuff so excuse me.
 I was searching the web for new ideas and I'll come across this interesting tutorial for a couple days ago. Today was the day to try it.

All what you need is a cotton string, nail polish and of course a bottle.
Mine was a leftover from my brother in laws visit as we cooked gluhwein in march.

Of course I didn't had a cotton string so I'll graped my sewing stuff and tried it with this one. First the string wouldn't burn so I soaked it wicked good. Bad idea I almost burned my kitchen down but the bottle was OK.

After I recovered from this experiment (and I didn't looked like Casper anymore) I'll tryed it with a yarn string from my stash.
Like the girl in the video, put the string 7 times around the bottle soaked it good (probably to good, because my bottle was on fire) in nail polish lid it on fire and put it in a sink with cold water.

 I love my new cut bottle, but the thing is, if you got the idea to do stuff like that your kids need to be in bed your partner or husband he need to be out of the house, he probably will freak out and start to scream like a sissi if he sees a burning bottle in your hand.
