Strawberry slippers!
Here are some slippers I crocheted for my pal Anna, which conveniently fold up to Strawberries!!
And here is the recipient wearing her fancy new footwear!?
Marjorie's birthday cake!
Here is a piece of cake I made almost entirely out of stockings for my hero, Marjorie Bligh! After reading Danielle Wood's beautiful book Housewife Superstar I thought it necessary that I crochet a slice of cake and send it to Marjorie for her birthday to show my esteem for her general amazingness!?

colourful crochet baby blanket!
Here's a nice blankie I made recently for a little person who we will meet at the end of March! Modelled here by my little nephew (and cousin to said new little person!) Taylor, aka Tails!?

my knitting debut!
Lately I've been dabbling in a bit of knitting, and here is what I've conjured up:
A Rosey tea cosy for my aptly named friend Rosie!?
Socks for my friend Yoko in Japan!
It turns out socks are really rather difficult, so I was quite please with how they turned out ;)

not the sharpest tool in the shed...
Here are some for the boys to enjoy (that is, enjoy laughing at my unique tool designs - I hear that traditionally spanners don't come with handles, but how many times did you wish that they did, I mean really?! And all presented on this lovely, easy to reach belt!!)
*Note: none of these tools actually work, but they do produce a rather satisfying rattley noise;)
vegie patch!
Here's some fruit and veg I've been harvesting from my crochet garden of late:
I grew quite attached to my broccoli -that was a real labour of love I tells you!

Here's my latest creation, a Saturn V rocket for my friend Helena (who is REALLY into space history, especially the Apollo missions!?)
And here's the happy space cadet herself...
