a visit to crochet heaven...

it's funny thing how things work out, once upon a time I taught a crochet workshop, just the one, and two friends came and for one of those friends it put her back on the road to crochet...and my oh my how she has learnt and practised and hooked her way... and now she IS  Lusciously Loopy! 

...and I couldn't be more delighted cos I never wish to teach anyone else to crochet, it was obviously meant to be just for her...so when I was at her home recently I asked nicely if I could share some of her creativity on my blog...
and here she is..
Lusciously Loopy...at home
ok actually that's Socks the cat sitting next to an early model crochet rug...


no really this is Lynn..., sitting in the lovely crafty corner she's made for herself, just so many inspiring things to look at!












and everywhere there's some of Lynn's magic...she is a whizz at making her home look lovely (and so welcoming) and has a designer's eye, crocheting lovely items in gorgeous yarns like cashmere and merino wool, bamboo, cotton...and such an eye for colour too...it is interesting that I call myself an artist, but she has an artist's eye for colour and form and beauty...








 
and I have been delighted with my pincushion in deep blue and pink...


and my four old school friends all loved their brooches...more of Lynn's handiwork...


oh and as it was meditation morning where 4 of us get together to meditate ie catch up and natter and sort out our lives and put the world to rights...and then sit for a while and quieten our busy minds... we had tea and 'meditation flapjack', delicious and guilt free...

so all in all a wonderful morning with a feast for the eyes and food for the soul!

I do hope you've enjoyed this virtual tour of Lynn's creative corner ...and you may like to visit her blog here...


ps
don't good friends just make the world go round?!
