Freeform Friday

 Thanks for joining me on the freeform Friday! Glad to see you!

There's not much for me to write today, I have been busy crocheting a blanket, and trying to write the patterns for the hat and cowl that I previously promised!
 
I will get them done.
 
So I thought i would show you some work from Prudence Mapstone.
 
Her  work is so colourful and exciting!
 
 
And as I think " you can't have enough bling!" She uses lots of sparkly threads and they just add that certain something to her work
 

I love all of the bullion stitches in the above picture - they are such fun to do, once you are shown.

So come on, join in and show what you have done:

Freeform Friday

Welcome to Freeform Friday again!!

I'm glad you are here!

Today, I thought I would show you some freeform books, just in case you are becoming more interested and would like to know more.

Apart from our own wonderful Prudence Mapstone, she is also available on Etsy, Pinterest and also on  Ravelry.

She is a very busy girl, our prudence and of course her books are second to none. Unfortunately, I have loaned my copies to a friend, so I can't show them to you tonight!

But of course, there are other books that are also very interesting, such as Renate Kirkpatrick's "Freeform Crochet and Beyond"



Renate takes you through how to scrumble, exercises to do



She explains making bags and clothing, and gives some patterns at the back of her book:


Then there is Jenny Dowde, and her "Freeform Knitting and Crochet".  Jenny is also on Ravelry


Jenny's book is also laid out as usual, with patterns for clothing and other items


and she continues with ideas for practice.


So if you are interested, I highly recommend getting yur hands on these books and working through them - you will not regret it, I promise.

So now, on with the Linky List!

Here is another small free form scrumble I did some time ago:



I rather like the colours on this one

Freeform Friday


Welcome to freeform Friday!

Today I would like to show you my knitting back that I am making with scrumbles

The knitting bag is at the back - it has simply been knitted up quickly using Noro  yarn.  I am currently crocheting a band aroung the back as a gusset, and then the scrumbles go on the front. Then the handle, and it's done.


The scrumbles are all in the front, some have been joined together but it is a work in progress.

I must say that I have been working on and off on this for at least 6 months!! I'm not in any hurry!

So why not join in and show us what you are up to with your freeforming.... Lets start supporting one another!!

I can't wait to see what you have done.

Freeform Friday

I'm going to kick off my Freeform Fridays today.

I will make this a linky day, so that you can post a picture of your freeform scrumbles work plus your latest finish as well, then we can all see what each of us is doing.  We can keep up with each other, and encourage one another when we need to.

Good idea?

Then join in on Fridays, won't you?Tell your friends to drop by and join in with us as well?

I'll start with an old piece I did quite some time ago, but I do like it:


It's my little underwater coral scene, I love it!! I also have some more crochet and freeform work HERE if you would like to take a look.


So come on now, join in and show us your Freeform this Friday using the list!
