A few Crochet Stars and a Circle in a Hexgon

Thanks to all for the suggestions to what the hole in the wall could be..l'm afraid it is only a blocked up serving hatch and nothing as exciting as an old oven or fireplace..l wish!
House was built in the 70's, not old enough for something exciting to be hiding behind the plaster except of course some illegal wiring...that was chopped in half so the wall lights no longer work...oooops!
Good job we have a junction box that trips when the electricity in cut hey?

MADE A FEW MORE STARS..
So quick to make...a perfect Christmas Crochet project as cute scarves for presents or simple garlands and decorations

CIRCLE IN A HEXAGON PATTERN
No Crochet bobbles this time but they could be added hehe

and just a simple corner join as you go for this one

EDGES CURLING ON YOUR CROCHET?
With the new stash of used up colours arriving l have FINALLY finished the bathroom rug too with guess what?.........
Of course a row of bobbles, these bobbles are a great way of finishing things off so they don't curl
every other stitch so that is......
SC in the first st, then a cluster of 2 trebles in the next st, then repeat until round complete
The Booble Stitch is quite heavy so it weights the edge....
Looks great and now NO CURL, still could do with blocking but at least the bath mat is finished at last

Have a wonderful Weekend everyone

 Hope you are all enjoying this Indian Summer we are having in the UK....marvellous hey? 
hugs to all xx

hehehehe spot the boob?..always pays to read what you write don't you think?

  5. Bobbles as a border, what a great idea! I guess I should've realized that when everyone started using pom-pom yarn as borders! This is much better!

  6. Suz, once again I have to say I don't know how you do it. So much beautiful crochet, I barely have time to crochet a row on my sons big chocolate yarn suck blanket. You are an inspiration.

  7. Very pretty Suz! I just read Attic's blog post, and she too said the summer has been remarkable in UK. I don't know if you are anywhere near her or not. But how nice for you!

  8. I want to lay on that mat staring at that wall paper for hours! Absolutely perfect together!! And the corner join for those hexagons gives it a whole different "feel". Love it all :)

  9. Bath mat looks good as does the hexagons. I had to read back up from the bottom for your mistake. It took some finding.
