GIFTED GORGEOUSNESS 02/24

 

It's always nice to make gifts, nice too to receive some

and use them in our stitching projects.

It's great and fun to show all this and the perfect place is

on Jo's blog Serendipitous Stitching on the 15th of each month

for the Gifted Gorgeousness post.

For home made birthday cards in February I chose the "donuts box" for  this 2024 start and as I have seven top images for sweet boxes

let's cook!

Here is my last batch of donuts...  with a total of 21.

With means 7 delicious birthdays cards

More progress on the Lady with the unicorn here

An update about the hexagon pullover

We had some fittings with some surprises...

the right sleeve is too short, the striped back would be better a bit larger

I had to remove the cuff to add one more rank of 5 hexagons

and to crochet it again to reach 37 stitches

D3 wants a cuff made with double bridles 

I have also re-crocheted the back adding so more stitches

for a few extra centimeters

and more ranks for the neckline

To adjust the armhole, more stitches to get larger ranks

and to adjust the cuff less stitches on the left sleeve

Next fittings are on next Sunday, I hope the measurements will be right and I'll be able to attach it on the body.

I still have many wool threads to stop and the finish around the waist
