Last fall, a friend expressed her desire to be one of those little old ladies at an old-fashioned quilting bee. This inspired me to send out an invitation to a few more friends to see if they’d like to get together regularly, throughout the winter, to work on crafty projects. The gathering was a success! There were six of us who would regularly attend to work on crocheting, knitting, painting, and some type of Swedish needle binding while snacking on hors d’oeuvres and watching Downton Abbey. We would generally meet at either my or Tomiko’s apartments on Sunday evenings. It’s a great way to make normally individual activities more social, as well as learning new crafts and techniques. One friend last year learned to crochet, while another worked on her knitting. Since we all have different skill levels and know different crafts, we act as a great resource for each other when trying new things.

Last year I was very productive and churned out several scarves and hats. Each picture is a link to the pattern or inspiration – check them out!

DIY Crocheted Slouchy Beanie, Kiku Corner

I also crocheted this grey Slouchy Beanie for myself. I clipped on a pretty pink flower to make it more interesting.

 

DIY: Crocheted Lacy Turquoise Shawl

My office at work is freezing in the winter, so I crocheted this lacy shell shawl out of 100% wool to keep me warm. Check out the free pattern!

 

Crocheted Sunburst Beret

This crocheted yellow Sunburst Beret is a great way to add a punch of colour to a dreary winter outfit.

 

Crochetd Winter White Infinity Scarf

I crocheted this Winter White Crocheted Infinity Scarf out of a silk-wool blend, so it’s super soft but warm as well!

 

I plan to continue this tradition this fall and winter!
