Strawberries
No cream, but the food cover could well be used to keep flies out of a cream jug! The strawberry pattern is Ninetta's, links in the previous post. The butterfly is Jane Eborall's.

On Ninetta's Diet Again

Finishes
I finished tatting butterflies and some dragonflies and then made a concerted effort to finish the cardigan I was asked to knit.
It's very bulky, not my favourite kind of garment or knitting, but now it's done I can get on with other things without feeling it weighing on me!

Merry Christmas
The picture shows one of the projects we did in a craft group at a retirement home. They are recycled thread cones.

Thread Size
I'm working on an order for tatted butterflies. The order says size and colour immaterial, so, just for fun, I've made a series of white butterflies in different size thread - 80, 40, 20 and 10. The pattern is Jane Eborall's SCMR butterfly. Now I had better use some of the many colours I have in stock.

Time To Tat
