Little Crochet Presents

As you could read in my previous post, I’ve just spent some time in France, enjoying a relaxing week full of yoga, friendship, beautiful nature, and fabulous food (+ wine ….).

These two photo collages should give you an idea how wonderful last week was…….

Knowing most of the participants from yoga weeks in previous years, I thought it would be fun to bring a little crochet present for everyone…….

I had no problem deciding what to make for the (9) women ….. flower brooches!

Our excellent host and cook being a man, I thought Annemarie Arts’ Chef (from her book (“Grappige Gelukspoppetjes & Co” – in Dutch only, I’m afraid) would be an appropriate little present for him. And for the other man in our group I crocheted a key chain too, a four leaf clover (free pattern here – I made the pattern twice, single crocheting them together, filling it up with some fiberfill, added a little stem – using this technique – plus a ring, and ta-dah).
They were all received well, being a nice bonus to the fun I had making them!

Love,
Marianne xx
