Making Sweet Little

    This week I have been busy making sweet little, little sweet things. Pineapple, watermelon, strawberry, and ice-cream down. Just need to do make a cheese burger, and attach pins to the back of these felt brooches. Wonder what else I'll be making...

We All Scream For Ice Cream

    Wow! That didn't take very long to do. Last week I mentioned a food crochet project that I would begin [as per this link]. It was an ice cream cone for my daughter.
    I began the crochet work on Friday and finished the thing just last night. Then leaving the toy on Gwen's little table it was the first thing she noticed when she got out of bed this morning. She immediately picked it up and exclaimed “ice cream cone”.
    I have seen Gwen pretend to lick the ice cream. So thankfully the toy version appears to cure her desire for the real thing.

    For anyone interested I followed the crochet instructions for this ice cream cone from the book Tasty Crochet by Rose Langlitz. You can also visit Rose's blog at tastycrochet.blogspot.com

My Creative Space

    Or, otherwise known as the ice cream entry.

    My daughter's latest obsession has been ice cream. Which is funny considering her limited exposure to any form of candy. So this morning my husband suggested I crochet an ice cream cone for Gwen to play with.
    Gwen and I just returned from the wool and knitting shop with a 4 mm crochet hook and 4 different yarns to produce the below pictured ice cream cone.
    If it is not too difficult I might even try making two ice cream cones.
    Mmmm! All this talk about ice cream and now I just want to eat a cornetto.

Straying a little from the instructions — I will use Dazzle yarn.
