Luisa Elephant




From the book Animal Friends of Pica Pau 2 I made the elephant this week. The original wears trousers and a hat, but I gave Luisa a skirt and a hair flower.
I made her for a four year old who loves elephants, so I hope she will live happily ever after with Luisa!



Pattern: Luisa Elephant from  Animal Friends of Pica Pau 2 by Yan Schenkel

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

Delft Blue Crochet Vase

Image
 Since I found the Delft Blue tiles that I got from my grandmother again in a moving box that still was unpacked, I wanted them to use in my interior. I painted the frames black and hung them above the windows. Starting with the tiles my living room slowly but certainly got more and more blue in it. While searching for more nice pieces for my house I got inspired by some beautiful vases and wanted to try a combination of my most favorite craft of all and my new favorite color: crochet and blue. This came out:   ~*~ Rosie the Fawn was featured by Creative Jewish Mom this week!

Chill & Chunky Blanket

Image
 One of my friends asked me to crochet a little baby blanket that she wants to give as a baby present to someone else. I showed her two pictues of blankets I made recently to choose from, but she wasn't sure which one she liked the most. I offered to crochet both blankets for her so she could see them for real to make the choosing easier. The one she doesn't choose I can give to one of my expecting colleagues. Here's the first blanket.   I made this blanket two times before in mint and dusky pink (see here and here ). This one is in baby pink with an ecru edge.     Pattern : Chill & Chunky Blanket from KOEL Magazine Issue #6 Yarn : Julia Baby Pink by Zeeman
