Dreamcatchers

Happy New Year!!!
have you already finalized your NY resolutions?

I like the one I made last year so I am gonna stick with it ;)

And as the kids are growing I am getting at least 6 hours of good night sleep every night I am hopeful I'll be able to do more :)
By more I mean I should actually finish up some of my wip's .. and call 2016 the year of finished projects :)
And to start this year with good omen I will finish this drafted blogpost about dreamcatchers ;)

Random rambling: my little tricksters

* when you love to be naked
And are old enough to know how to take off your clothes ... easy game till mom figures out a solution and "help" you wear something that is hard to get out of .. it works for about a week and then you have grown and can outsmart her again - pee in your pants and mom will have no choice but to help you undress ... (evilgrin)

Sam now, Oli 2 years ago 

When this happens after what seems as an eternity spent trying to dress up that screaming monster I just want to cry ... thank god most of the times we are not in hurry to get somewhere so its just frustrating for me.

* drawing is easy!
especialy when all of the drawing is done by the grownup .. "please draw me a car, tractor, airplane, helicopter ... flower, tree, house ... pig, cow, bunny ... " after you have listened to your mom about hundred times why you should draw at least some of the stuff yourself just keep repeating previous sentence and after a while you can easily say just "NO, you!" and pictures will appear as if from nowhere!

Oli always, Sam sometimes

Bag full of Triangular madness!

Second bag that I have made myself :)
using a pattern of my own. (that is still not written down properly .. it's been almost a year since I started .. soooooo lame to find out I am slower than a slug when it comes to actual work)
btw, I have started two blankets using this triangle pattern .. and of course none of them are close to finishing line (knowing me that's just obvious)

A bit more about my bag.
made 2 sides. about 20x25cm.
crocheted them together making bag bottom and sides. about 4cm wide.
and then made a strap. 130cm long and 3cm wide.

Scrappy Rug

Today I had my first yoga session on my still unfinished new yoga mat :)
It was a bliss ... all those colors inspired me to better myself (I am still pretty bad at all asanas but I love the way I feel after my workout). hopefully tomorrows session will be longer but with two little ones in the home no-one is ever sure of anything ..

how it started ...
I had a bowl with leftover yarn balls collected from frogged jumpers and previous projects. All those incompatible colours and yarn weights kept me thinking what to do? And as always answer was so simple! Take the lightest and thickest yarn and crochet away together!

Random rambling: Cosy living

So far I have been apartment person ... I have lived in quite a few apartments I have loved and called my home ..
Now that we have been living in our new old house about 3 months now I can honestly say - I am a house person ... and we all are hopeful to be able to stay here throughout the winter as well. (heating might be a problem)
