Welcome


Hello, my name is Dionne and I have been crafting for a very long time. As a very young child my mother tried to teach me to knit, it was a disaster. However, it must have sparked an interest in making things and, partly to prove that I was not totally useless and partly because I really wanted to make things, I taught myself to crochet. Over the years I have developed a love of cross stitch and all types of paper craft ..... I eventually even taught myself to knit.


I am married to a very understanding man, thank goodness, because I spend all my time either crafting, thinking about crafting or talking about crafting. I am hopeless at housework and dinner is often late!


Thank you for visiting my blog.

A Sheep in Wolves Clothing?

I am back with my second post of the day.

I have a hat and scarf combo to share with you today.  When I made the little lamb scarves I went on the hunt for a scarf pattern for the older children.  I found this Fox Scarf pattern by Gina Michele on Ravelry and the Caron Ribbed Hat pattern on Love Knitting.

I made the fox scarf in grey, making it more of a wolf than a fox and I added eyes and pointy ears to the hat to make it match the scarf.





When the hat is pulled onto the head, the ribbing stretches sideways making the ears stand away from the head.

I'll be back again tomorrow.

      Sadly, my family suffer from large head syndrome (it's not noticable at a glance) and it looks like I shall have to have another go at the hats as they do not fit. Lol!
