#Handmade - Recycled burlap bags


Two more recycled Burlap bags finished - coffee bags, I think :-)

The first one is really big, but perfect for summer to come with a long strap,
so it's comfy to carry big water bottles (and your knitting) around.

The smaller one is more a basket.
Currently I store my spindle and wool for spinning in there (not that I have tried spinning yet)....

#Handmade - Round jacket


My not so round Emily Bronte Topper finally had his finishing touches.
I might give this one a second try one day with different (more loose) yarn,
since I really like the end result.

Well, you can look at the original free pattern from Lion Brand Yarn, it IS nice ;-)

I DO like wearing my version too though. It turned out square a first and by far not wide enough to make real arms. I just sew together the to end corners with the sides, so I had some arm holes.
Then made a 10 stitch border around (should have used more) by picking up stitches along the way.

#Korea - Grave stones at mountain burial sites in Waegwan


Going down the memory lane :-)
Sorry for the quality. These are 'rescues' from one of my online Sites, the only files left after a Harddrive crash back in the day. I learned the use of 'Backup' the hard way.
