If anyone can do catch up on This Morning, there were some nice, easy wreaths being made which were lovely.

I want to try that as I wouldn't need a sewing machine. Cute.

Well am still on with the part knitted aran cardiI founddin the eaves, have never before had a pattern that I a made loads of mistakes, b constantly had to check the pattern, c had to rip out parts several times and have 2 fronts both bottom half lefts but a right and Left shaping, am seriously considering sewing it up as is when finished am totally p***ed off , sorry fed up, with it. Should have been finished weeks go.
Might start another for John, it will NOT be this pattern though and just do a little bit at a time of the one for me, but suspect it will never get finished it's a lovely colour too.
Could I pretend it is meant to look odd?

I quite fancy making a bauble wreath.
I saw one on the Crafty Campers faceache page then saw Captain Y 's pictures of his baubles on display on the MT which gave me the nudge so I have ordered some polystyrene hoops off t'interweb (local shop doesn't have any) and will dig out the baubles we don't use.
Maybe I should finish the rag wreaths and Christmas masks I'm in the middle of making first though.......

Here is Alan's he made it using a wire coat hanger.

This is a free bunny pattern

Tarragon the Gentle Dragon pattern by Knit-a- Zoo

Mythology or reality? The reality is that Tarragon is a dragon with a tender heart and an obscure predilection for French cuisine. He will only blow fire for bbq-ing some sausages - to eat with lots of onions and garlic sauce!

Ravelry is always a good place to look . Please let us see when you have made it !

Jenben the deramores bunny is coming up with error 404, i will do a search.
thank both you and Janine for the dragon pattern, am not good with 4 needles, but assume it could be done on a circular one.
Must have patterns for dozens of animals, but no bunny, except for a foot high bride rabbit

 

[Janine]

Not sure if this has been linked to before but there are some nice, free patterns..

I will let him know you like his baubles

I’m very impressed with Alan’s prowess in arranging his baubles so beautifully. How are they attached?

I’ve made a start on mine but am running out of some essential items (baubles) as I underestimated how many it would take. So I‘m off to B&M to get more.

He simply threaded them over the unwound wire coat hanger, then rewound the coat hanger.

Here you are Joy movan.
Pat has knitted these hare brained Hares and a chimney sweep Rabbit during the current restriction, the Hares are for our last 4 great grandchildren and the chimney sweep Rabbit is for our own fireplace.

John.
