Here's the New Thing I was working on yesterday and finished today. I was lucky enough to be given a Kindle at the weekend as it was an unwanted gift. The cover was pretty bulky so I decided what it really needed was a stripy crocheted one.
I love using stash yarn, it feels like getting something for free! It was simple to make, cost next to nothing and has bought some rainbow stripes into the world.
There were more rainbows today in the form of these cute little windmills, 3 for £1 in the pound shop. Once the high winds have died down they'll be taking up residence in the pots in my garden and will add a little colour to tide me over until the flowers start blooming.
I hope the grey weather isn't getting you down and that you're finding little rainbows too.
Love your little kindle cover - so bright and cheery!

Your kindle cover is fab! I agree that using up the stash feels like getting things for free. No rainbows here , more like a total white-out as I've been giving the lounge walls another coat of white paint.
ReplyDeleteLucky you being given a Kindle. The cover you've made is wonderful, lovely and bright and cheery. I love the little windmills too, I shall look out for some of those myself, they'll really brighten up the pots until the flowers are in bloom.
