Royal fun and imperfect crochet

shhh its all happening on tv...
waving a Brit flag with aher princess crown, ha!
THE moment captured with the minx, a much lovelier princess, at the front....


yeahhh mummy's first crocheted dress fits!
Made with cotton crochet on size 6 hook and a floral vintage pillow. Patchwork ruffles at the hem. imperfect dress because the stitches are big and lose and would have been tighter with a smaller crochet hook. But I am impatient, so that 'll teach me to want speed over precision. Wont repeat that mistake on her next granny square dress, my current project.
Our little summer ritual: a pose in the garden in front of pretty flowers.

Crocheted circles below.
Another view of the vintage collar I will be selling on Etsy soon. I am also working on crocheted collars, experimenting with different patterns and learning about lace crochet at the moment.
A bientot!
