Remember that on that pleasing Pippi pattern day I spotted a kettle-holder I felt an urge to make myself? As luck would have it, when we did a little post-afternoon-tea-walk-around in Söderköping I stumbled over a yarn shop that had both the pattern and the yarn for it.
It's a super-easy pattern and I think the result is quite fetching. But as my hand is still sore - I'm still hoping I will be able to rest it away, but it's now on its third week of soreness so I'm guessing that a doctor's visit might be a thing for next week if it's not better by the weekend. Although I have to say, a bit of whining in blog has been known to miraculously heal all sorts of ailments... - it took *forever* to finish.
When hand is better I'm thinking it would be a nice thing to make another kettle-holder like this and have a little summer give-away here in blog. Not now, not in this post, but a real give-away-post when hand is able to crochet properly again. Would that be of any interest to an blog-reader I wonder?
Hi Pia; bespoke kettleholder is very cute and does the trick from fingers getting burned. It is also comforting to use such a pretty handmade "thing"! What is the trouble with your hand? Hope it will heal soon.
ReplyDeleteNow I want to peruse your earlier posts, as I have missed many due to my absence from blogging and a kind of apathy...I have blown now the cobwebs for a while. Hope you are happy and singing....Trudi.
Den är jättesnygg!
ReplyDeleteThe kettle holder is a joy. And I love the elegant hands holding it to display it. And the ring.
ReplyDeleteHope your hand settles soon.
You take care of your hand first! Try icing it, you never know....
ReplyDeleteDarling!
ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteSorry in advance for the off-topic message... :-) I work at Fazer, and I noticed some of your awesome Dumle pictures on your Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/piaktw/5752623668/) photo album. I also take care of our Dumle Facebook page (facebook.com/dumle) and I was wondering if you would be willing to let us use some of those Dumle pics in a couple of our status updates? :-) We could totally send you some Dumle candies in return (as a thank you for taking such beautiful Dumle pictures! :).
