So here it is. A work in progress. Wooden beads, blue yarn, what will it be?
I love working with this Scheepjes Cotton 8, it really is becoming one of my favourite yarns. Although, for it to be perfect, it would be DK weight. I just like to use a bigger hook and heavier yarn, so projects work up quicker. But that’s just my instant gratification personality shining through!
I’m busy covering the wooden beads with the yarn. In the past I’ve just made balls and stuffed them with filling, but the roundness was just lacking a bit, and by using a wooden bead it just adds the right amount of weight and shape.
And look who I caught trying to run steal one as I was taking pictures. Isn’t that chubby little hand delicious? No wonder she’s always covered in kisses and cuddles!
It’s nearly finished and ready to be shipped to its new home in America, but you’ll have to wait until next week to see the end result!
Beautiful. I wanted to do one, but I do not know where to buy the balls. Where did you buy yours?
Ohhh, I’m excited to see the end result!
I’m intrigued!
