Scarf Cowl and Crochet Flowers
I made a few small things this week I found Pom Pom yarn in a parcel of remnants I like to buy. It had a pattern on the label you knit between the little Pom poms. It feels lovely and soft, added crochet flowers to use up my yarn. I love buying remnants usually a parcel as you often find nice things including lace, embroidery silks, knitting book.
I also found this pretty yarn from France which has a mix of acrylic mohair, wool and gold lurex. And luckily I have a few pretty pearl buttons to add too.
I made this cowl using up my oddments of yarns and used a drop stitch pattern with stocking stitch.
I bought a set of these Christmas cake tins as my own was too small fit the cake I made. I included this photo as it goes with the other colours here.
Also I am going to a Christmas Craft Fair just before I go to see my daughters in London for a month to spend Christmas
I made a little bag for myself with remnants too.

A Little Knit and Crochet
I made this little pumpkin which is knitted on three double pointed needles I am pleased how it turned out. And it looks bright and colourful as Autumn decoration! Here is the lovely pattern
I have made two granny squares so far and these just need a zip and lining to make a purse. The blue is a bright turquoise dont know if the colour shows correctly on cumputer screens. I may make a few more for craft fairs. I must say there are a few new ones in Cornwall now! There is Hellys at Helston right by the boating lake and Heartlands in Pool between the towns of Camborne and Redruth and now a craft fair started in Camborne town at a centre indoors, all fabulous crafts, Thursdays and some Saturday's which is already fully booked and am on the reserve list for that one.

Ear Flap Hat and A Craft Fair
I made this hat to add to my collection with this pattern it's knitted with a bulky pure cream new wool and so is quick to knit up. I like how easy it is to add this icord at the end by picking up and knitting the stitches as you go. This should be so warm and cosy to wear.
My fuchsias and pink flowers look good spread out in their pot.
I am at another craft fair at Heartlands this weekend.
