An account of the craftwork I get up to, tatting, spinning, knitting, sewing, whatever
All the butterflies are attached and the second food cover is done. I listened to podcasts as I sewed and used white thread throughout and it went quite quickly.
I'm still working on Jane Eborall butterflies for my second food cover. I should have enough by the end of the day and be able to start sewing them to the net.
I showed a picture of the first net to someone else and she asked me to make her a daisy one. So that's been added to my to-do list.
The weather was unseasonably cool on Saturday, but the market was well attended none the less. I was very happy with my sales. I sold the owl tow'l, shown in the previous post, and another towel, which was a big sale. I also sold smaller items - gloves, puppets, jams, beaded key rings... Oh, and two small Kigelia trees that Jack has grown from seed. I like to buy as well as sell at the market, but definitely finished up in the black this month.
I wanted some knitting to do while I was at the market, so cast on for socks on Thursday. In truth, I didn't get much knitting done at the market, but it's always a talking point. And I have finished the socks:
I've tatted a flutter of Jane's SCMR butterflies and am busy sewing them to the food cover. I need to deliver the food cover tomorrow, so I must get on with it.
