upcycling........


Yes we Indians are sentimental a lot. That’s why this cross-stitch calendar made years back for my children was stacked in my head-box of the BED...WHEN MY CHILDREN WERE KIDS ..THEY TRIED THEIR BEST TO ROLL-UP THE DATES ON CALENDER EVERY DAY.........
THIS TIME.............on Holi cleaning i dug it out ......and i decided to mount it on the rug....which seems little-bit shabby.....yet not torndddddddddddd......
Let see .How the rug will turned out with these fairies with wings and balloons on their hands...........







meanwhile inspired with this link of flower blanket...... Blanket i will make one with my newly created yarn stash.

John Lewis & Partners Christmas Ad 2018 - #EltonJohnLewis ��

A meshy stole ,recycling of grain sac and cable wire.





Don't worry, they're intentional.
 
Here are some photos of blocked crocheted stole

It takes just one and a half ball of baroque cotton yarn No.8 in black,  and measures approximately 100"X24" after blocking.

You could use acrylic or wool yarn, or more balls of the baroque cotton yarn.


Yes, those photos are both the same stole. The lower picture, shot without flash, shows the texture nicely. The upper picture, shot with flash, shows the holes being blocked open and is a more accurate representation of the colors of tassels in the yarn (though it's somewhat less orange than it appears).
 
 
 


The pattern should be available very soon on upcoming posts in this blog only.
