My Creative space on the road....

When we left on our road trip I decided to take only one project, a rather large granny stripe blanket.


As you can imagine the weather has been way to warm to sit with a huge afghan on your lap whilst you add extra rows.


The bag of yarn was pretty much ignored until I developed an urge to 'make' something. This urge came on in Broome.


Potholders were a good choice- small and quick!





Our lovely friend, Tayla also showed Ella how to do French knitting. 


Great for travelling! Thanks Tayla....Ella has really enjoyed it!


Linking up with Kirsty's My Creative Space today....

  1. Next is to think of creative ways to use the many metres of French knitting. There are always the circle rug or dreadlocks wigs.

  3. Your pot holders look great and colourful. I love smaller craft projects, definitely more ideal than the afghan rug in the heat. The finger knitting looks like it's going well too. :)

  6. Gorgeous colours and so much more sensible in the heat, plus you get that feeling of rapid completion which is also great.melx
