Things You Might Like....

Sadly I don't have too much knitting or crochet to show you today (or at least anything that looks remotely exciting!) but I've read a lot of really great posts this week on other blogs so I thought I'd share them with you...

First off is Crochetbug who is putting together a cookieghan (an afghan made up of cookie motifs) and you can see her progress here


Then there's this from Susan at Susan's Hippie Crochet


Living in South Africa I LOVE chameleons and these are very sweet appliques. Susan blogs about them here and the pattern is available at her Etsy shop here.

And then there's Kate at Fox's Lane


She is absolutely one of my most favourite blogs - she's a farmer's wife and her writings are very witty and just so entertaining. Oh yes, and she has the most gorgeous caravan! At the moment, she's just had the painters in so please pop over and visit her. I'm sure you'll end up following too.........

And then this week I stumbled across this tutorial to make a teepee!!!! Looks like just the thing for summer fun in the garden!!!!


And finally for the gardeners among you Veggiegobbler wrote about a guy in Australia who is trying to grow 80% of the food he and his family need. Self-sufficiency has always fascinated me so I zoomed across to his blog Zucchini Island to have a look. Please pop over if you can cos it's really inspiring and if you like the idea of homegrown fruit and veg, this would be a great place to start!



So, I hope you enjoyed my offerings. Have you found anything truly fab on the web recently? If so, please share......
Til soon.
