Lucky Find

Just a very quick post.  Got home last night and was doing some tidying today when I found a shuttle had fallen down behind my desk…  I pick it up and what does the bobbin happen to contain?  Yes, a full bobbin's worth of cream Lizbeth, just the one I was needing to complete my doily!


Hardly worth a post you may say but I was so pleased.  

I ended up leaving the little blue crochet bag behind to be completed when I'm next there on holiday.  I wasn't happy enough with it and instead have ordered some nylon thread to try another bag with.  I also found another interesting crochet stitch I want to try - that's one fun thing about crochet, there are so many different stitches to try!

Best wishes,
Frivole

  3. That is so great that you found more of the thread you need and it's even already on a shuttle! How cool is that??

    1. Just had a quick try Madtatter and it's not working out at the moment! I frustratingly do not understand how the pattern is written but hopefully I'll figure it out eventually.

  5. I don't need to read books at all, there are so many climaxes and cliff hangers with tatting and following blogs ha ha, I do hope it is just the excitement of finding the thread unless it is a slightly different size thread ???

  7. Great find, well done and at least you won't have to buy a new ball that might have been slightly different colour shade.
