This winter seems long, dark and cold.
Nights are spent by the fire ripping up old clothes
and crocheting them into
weird floppy baskets.
weird floppy baskets.
i salvaged this from the bin at work
an interesting technique
has anyone seen it before?
you kind of over sew in different colours
then clip the yarn so it makes
sort of a rag rug but with wool

I've never heard of that technique but I love the sound of it -- it's wonderful to learn something new.
And your work and your sister's work side by side on your father's mantle is lovely -- like you both planned your work that way without talking about it!
wow, i love your floppy pot, kate.

Kate, I love the image of you crocheting by the fire. Keep warm and snug. Spring will come!
fabulous floppy pots :)
such a beautiful poignancy in the mantle placing.

oooh i like both your pots :))!
You can tell you're sisters! Those pots and painting look 'related'!!
Love the things you are making. I used to crochet and even embroider when I was about 10 years old but then somehow my sewing ability just stalled...
Interesting that the painting and the pots have something similar going on, an appearance of dissolving from their solid state.
Another inspiring post. love the floppy pot! and you and your sister's work . . . yummy!
Yes!
That last picture is a keeper. Just a perfect vignette!
