Busy

Hi everyone.
Did ya miss me.... things have gone a bit busy here at Lewis Acres and I'm sorry I've not been popping in here to update you on my stitcheries.
Truth is that I haven't had time to do anything other than my major artwork that is for the IFFFG (International Free Form Fiberart Guild) which goes in a book and an online gallery next month, and once again, I am editing the book.
I will share it with you when it has all 'gone-live' but until then, no one but me sees all the entries.

I can tell you the theme and title of the book though: Ocean - The Color of Water

It's autumn here in New Zealand and farm 'stuff' is also keeping me on my toes, but yesterday I was urgently in need of a little crochet therapy to brush away the stress, and I created this little fluffy scarf/neck warmer made from stitching with four yarns at once and a huge hook.


A Fluffy scarf - (for a fluffy brain)

I might add some tassels or beads to the ends later.

The four yarns used are pictured here.
An eyelash yarn, a 'hairy' yarn, a dishcloth cotton and a wool yarn.


Right then, back to work I go. 
We've been saving some apples on the trees for the birds. This is a Silver-eye enjoying an apple that the Rosella's had started.
