Cake and Crochet

Little pink "jazzie" cakes which Miss M and I made together yesterday. Unashamedly girlie! Not that it put G off in the slightest, he happily devoured a couple of them...

I spent an enjoyable few hours yesterday working on a few crochet projects. The little red bow has a little hair clip attached and Miss M is happily wearing it in her hair at this very moment! I have also started on my crochet bag which I wrote about in this post...

So crochet and cake, combine very well to make a perfect Saturday don't you think?!

 

Thank you for the lovely comments on my little elephant brooch! You have all convinced me, and as well as making one for Miss M, I will also most definitely make one for myself too!

  1. I love the little teacosy. How did you make the flowers? I am just starting to teach myself crochet, but would love to make some flowers to jazz a few things up.

    Thanks, Amy

  2. Deeeeelicious - and that looks like a good size china cup - perfect! Glad to see you're crocheting the bag from Granny Chic - I've just finished mine and am tempted to start another as it was a breeze to do. Looking forward to seeing it finished x Jane

  17. Great shots of a perfect day. The cakes look really yummy, will have to buy some jazzies now (but I prefer the milk chocolate ones). The tea cosy looks brilliant, will have to make one. Have a great week. xx

  20. Those little pink cakes look so dainty and feminine - beautiful - shame to eat them! And of course the crochet goes very well with them - doesn't crochet go with everything, just cause we say so!!!
    Happy week to you!
