Do you talk to yourself when crafting?

I thought this craft joke was a bit of fun 🙂 I certainly talk to myself but not sure I would call myself an expert just yet.

This week’s Top 10 in Craft is all about Crafts for Adults and there are so many wonderful projects to enjoy!

The Persian Tile Blanket designed by Jane Crowfoot is stunning. A project I’d love to do in the future.

Do you love succulents? The vertical wall paper craft planter is adorable.

But first what craftiness have I been up to? …

On My Needles

Having learnt how to knit without a cable needle, I was keen to try out another pattern that included cables.

This time I learnt how to knit a 3 stitch left crossing cable.

The Natte Dishcloth by designer Joyce Fassbender available for free at Knitpicks creates a small and pretty cloth.

I loved the color of the yarn used in the photo on Knitpicks. Fortunately I was able to find a very similar color.

Having only 34 stitches on the needles meant it knitted up quickly.

My next project is the Nordic Dishcloth by designer Allison Griffith, a free pattern published on Knitpicks.
