My X-mas Tree

And after all the X-mas trees you probably already saw, this one is mine:


As you could read before, I've been busy crocheting snowflakes and now you can see where they did go: there all in my tree!

    I think it is great you took the time to make your ornaments. You think your tree is decorated differently, I do not even have one.

    Your Christmas tree is looking great! I love the snowflakes together with the white baubles. We will decorate our Christmas tree not before Christmas Eve, although I would prefer to do it earlier! :)
    Merry Christmas!!!

    I love your Christmas tree. And it is very important to me that it is a Christmas tree since it is the birth of Christ we celebrate..

    Beatiful snowflakes. My sis sent me a lovely one from Ireland last year and still want to try it myself.

Plague Doctor (free pattern)

Image
  In the last months I saw him on social media regularly: the Plague Doctor, often accompanied by the words 'Wash Your Hands'. I doubt that plague doctors ever said that, because in their time running water wasn't available for everyone. Besides: people didn't know about bacteria and viruses back in the days, so washing your hands wasn't common use.  People knew you could get sick by having contact with another sick person, though. The plague doctor wore a leather gown, a mask with glass sight holes and a beak that was stuffed with flowers and herbs to hide the stench of reeking wounds, all to protect him from contamination by sick people.The long stick was for poking people to see if they had the plague and if they were still alive. In a way his gear looks like what we are still wearing nowadays when we have contact with people that are infected by dangerous contagious diseases. In my hospital we wear protecting gowns, special masks and goggles and glo...

Crochet Fly Curtain

Image
Last week I saw this nice book, called Haken & Kleur (meaning Crochet & Color in Dutch; here's the blog of one of the authors with a link to where you can buy the book), full of crochet patterns. I bought it and after just a little bit of paging my choice fell on the Fly Curtain. I só need a fly curtain. When I do not close my door my house is invaded by flies, mosquitoes, bees and wasps.  I started to crochet, but when the weather got better and better the amount of bugs in my house increased faster and faster, so I had to speed up my crocheting. But here's my bug remedy, just in time for summer.     www.betweennapsontheporch.net Fortuitous coincidence: I got rid off all my yarn surplus!
