I'm trying really hard to understand scheduling a post on blogger.

I failed with my purple day post (it came out prematurely) so I'm re-trying at the risk of spamming my twitterfeed with this one.

Feast your eyes on these little beauties while I try out another scheduled post.

I've finally taken the plunge and crocheted with sterling silver.


For some reason working with this metal has been extremely off-putting but last night I couldn't resist the call from my wire drawer. Ever since seeing curbsidetreasure's treasury poster entry here I've been inspired into a white phase.

So I cooked up a bead soup of white jasper, howlite, glass, shell and crystal and took it, a pack of fine gauge sterling wire and my trusty hook down to a girls' crafting night out. While three of the ladies knitted and the hostess embroidered, I knotted myself into 20 feet of sterling wire with beads attached. I then extricated myself, tumbled the resulting mesh and this morning it looks v purdy!

Keep checking the flickr gallery for the completed cuff and here for on sale eventually!
