the tiny orange mini cooper

The tiny orange Mini Cooper. This weeks cool crochet project.

Pippa asked if I wanted to make a traditional Christmas sweater for Liam.

So I knitted a tiny tweed spencer and I made a crochet version of our orange Mini Cooper, which he thinks is a really cool car!

On Thursdays Minne & Liam often go for a walk together and sometimes they drop by to bring a kiss (and buy some 'hare' cookies)

A snowy x-mas garland in the attic room.

Actually, it's just my original crochet garland pattern, I simply added a bit of Christmas atmosphere with an embroidered star...

You can find the pattern in my ETSY SHOP.
