Here he is! All finished up xxx

Hey everyone! I’m taking a quick break from the crank to show off my latest obsession. I’ve been using my Addi to whip up these "little flowers" and honestly, it is so fun and easy! Last year, I went the traditional route with real flowers for Mother’sDay, but they didn’t last long. This year I’m going for "forever" status! My plan is to knit cozy covers for mason jars pop these beauties on some stems, and tuck them inside. No water required! 🌿 I’m working on a green theme, a purple inspired one, and a pink one. 💖💜💚 I’ve got just 20 more to go before the big day! ⏳ Who else is cranking out some handmade love for Mother’s Day?

It's the same as I made a few weeks ago on my 48 pin Sentro except this is done on my smaller machine. I finished the top with a few rows of crochet to give a neater edge and a bit of contrast colour. Crochet chains plaited to form the straps. I've threaded a crochet chain through the top to act as a closure. I added sequin trim and some pompoms. The tutorial I followed on YouTube for a round bag is by Crafty Turtle Crochet and Knitting Machines. I changed a few things like adding 2 straps and the crochet chain to make it a drawstring bag. I made one of these that had a few tucked stitches which I've kept for myself, it made a great toiletry bag when I was away last weekend.

This is what I'm calling my Criss cross blanket. Made it for my grandson. If I make another one I will make bigger.

Tote bag pattern is in vip patterns. Coin purse, glasses case and key chain ☺️
