Owls... and more...

There are a lot of crochet Owl Hats on the internet... Of course, I couldn't resist and made two of them - for my daughters! For the first - Alisha's Owl - I used this lovely description, also I stole the color combination (I do it often lately)  :))

Alisha's Owl Hat_1

Made in Hdc with a 4 mm hook and Stylecraft Special DK acrylic yarn.
Wooden buttons for the eyes.
Now looking at the photo I think the bigger eyes size will be better.

For the second - Anastasia's Owl - I used this pattern. I picked the colors of the hat according to Anastasia's winter coat coloration.

This hat is crocheted in Dc with a 5,5 mm hook and King Cole Big Value Chunky acrylic yarn.

And... and... and... I'm thrilled because I got my first order for three hats! plus matching scarves. So I was a little busy last week crocheting them. Now they are finished and I can relax... 

Here they are.

Sometimes I feel tired to crochet and I dream of finishing all my projects and resting maybe for a week... But crocheting I come up with more and more new projects ...  :))

Have a wonderful week

Triangle Garland!

   I've finished my triangle garland! First I attached it to window blinds at my playroom and then I realized I didn't took any pictures of the finished garland. So I had to do it by jumping around the window :)
A bunch of pictures for you...

   The triangle above was decorated on the reverse side of it.  You can see the green DC border's wrong side. haha...
Are you enjoyed the pictures? Now a few statistic. The yarn I used is Stylecraft Special  DK acrylic yarn, I usually buy at Deramores online yarn shop. The 4 mm/G hook. My favorite. The total amount of needed yarn is 115 g.
   As I already wrote I made 12 triangles, but I needed only 9. So three of them were chosen as usual with my eyes closed. :)
Here they are, unnecessary:

   The marvelous wooden beads I got from eBay as well as 23mm resin buttons.

   A few weeks ago I bought round handles for a bag and yesterday I started crochet the striped bag. The  pattern I found on Ravelry.

Garland WIP

 Last week I'm crocheting several projects at the same time. One of them is here.
A lot of bright colors I like!


What a fun to crochet with these colors!


My flower-wheel!


The bunting should have only 9 triangles. I made 12. So I must make a choice. It is not easy for me because I love all of triangles with all of colors combination! Therefore I'll use my favorite method - choose with my eyes closed.  :))  It works!


The triangle bunting is almost done. I need to hide the ends and add a little decoration and attach the bunting somewhere at my kids' playroom.
At the right side of the picture above you could seee another WIP - the flowers in the plastic bag will be squares for... I no idea for what!  haha
Have a sunny day all of you as well as we have already 5th sunny day running!
Your Olga!
Hug you!
