Images from Port Willunga Beach

I seem to have a head full of craft ideas and projects but nothing in a finished state to share photos of just yet. I'm working on knitting another pair of newborn booties for a friend whose baby is due in November, also another plain vest (similar to the ones made here and here), but with some lovely light blue wool with little brown speckles in it. I have plans to start a cross-stitch tea-towel but am still deciding on the exact details of the design. I'll post pics of these projects when they are finished. For the moment here's a few photos taken down at Port Willunga Beach over the last week or so. I love going for walks and runs down at this beautiful beach, and I usually bring my camera with me to capture some of the ever-changing scenes.

Bathurst Beanie

Well things have been a bit crazy and busy lately, so I haven't managed to find much time to do any craft, let alone write about it on my blog! But this week I have started to make time for craft again - I really miss it when I haven't got at least one project one the go! I have been slowly working on my crochet blanket, just doing a square here and there (I've finished 10 squares now). In preparation for our Bathurst camping trip, I also started making a beanie for myself this week, and have just finished it. It was a very easy pattern. The beanie is nice and snug and warm. I made it with a multicoloured yarn that is a mix of blues and greens called "Scottish meadows".

Also, towards the end of August I planted some of the seeds for my purple carrots, assorted carrots, scarlet runner beans and purple-podded peas. They have just started to sprout this week...can't wait until they are big enough to harvest! :-)
