Hi Judy from Witchpeacecraft, welcome to this week that was a catch up and update on a few things that I've been doing but not a lot. We had a lot of rain this week which caused a localised flooding and it made life difficult to get around for workshopping etc. Today is Sunday the 25th of April and it is Anzac Day. We commemorate our fallen veterans, our current veterans and remember them. It made it very difficult this morning to do a light-up your driveway, dawn service here. It was thundering down with rain and we gave up and decided to come inside and watch it on television. Anzac Day is important to think and I, things grandfather was fought at Gallipoli and my dad was in Italy during the Second World War. Say yes. For those of you who don't know what Anzac is about, I will Anzac days about if I find a link I'll leave it in the description below. I will put links in the description below to all channels mentioned hopefully and all things that I talk about. So let's get started. My cows catch up on my cows. Nansnecks knots, lack of the jaw cow. I am really enjoying this. I love it. I like the way the lapgann is turning out. It's beautiful. My colour this week was the light blue. Number seven. I don't know when I will stop. I just love it so much. So this is my lap card with the eight colours picked and black was number nine. My base colour that's why I call it my licorice blanket and as you can see number seven is the light blue. However we have not had number four yet. We keep repeating some of the others but number four is missing in action which is a lovely peach colour for me. She did show that it was in the barrel but it's just not coming out or getting picked and maybe that's when I'll stop when we finally do number four. But yeah that is my lap card and Nansnecks knots, lack of the jaw number three. She does the number four. I'm probably going to be keen to join that because I have really enjoyed doing this. It is one of my favourite cows. So the other one I joined knowing that cows weren't really my thing was Zeta's place, calendar cow and she's doing cows but we can do anything. I couldn't find a cow for April I wanted to do but I took the pictures of a April calendar and interpreted them into a tea cozy. I need tea cozy from my main markets because I sold so many at my April market. I did this pattern and if you can see it's got some like kiss crosses there just watching television. I did make pattern notes in case I ever wanted to do it again but it's just sort of something that came out of my head and trying to be creative with a picture for April. It is made in pure wool. This is my stash yarn and this was yarn that was gifted to me by Janice and it's doubled up for extra thickness. It's eight ply or three weight, two strands of each colour. So yes I'll put a picture of Zeta's calendar for April and you can tell me if I interpreted the colours correctly in the comments below. Let me know what you think. I don't know if I like this thickness. I may do this pattern a bit thinner but yeah that was my tea cozy for the calendar cow for April. The stitch along cow with crochet nana aka Michelle. Olivia's stitch along. I am way behind. Made me because I find it hard when I don't know some of the stitches and I have to go and do a tutorial to learn them. I've decided as of yesterday I'm going to completely restart this again and do it a different way. I have no doubt when I put my mind to it I will catch up but yeah I am behind in that so there's no real update then other than I've forgotten to catch up on it. Finished objects. Well the April market was so successful selling 29 tea towels with crochet tubbers. That's the other thing I've been doing this week making tea towel tubbers in different colors, bathroom ones, kitchen ones. I've made five this week. The aim was to make one a day but I got a little tired of it so I might have got five not seven. I did however experiment and did it a different way and use my edge tool, the sharp tool. It takes a bit of getting used to and a bit of practice. I definitely need to wear a thimble because I stabbed myself a couple of times but yeah I didn't mind it. I did them the way I normally do and then I did a couple with the edge tool. I think the edge tool makes it quicker but yeah it depends on the weight of the fabric but I did do five tea towels and they don't excite me. Just a means to an end because I do sell so many of them on my market store. The Bilby pattern giveaway penny, a little bit so yarn and no catch your name. Ella have claimed their prizes which is nice. Thank you to everyone who joined in that little giveaway. It was so nice to see and yes their patterns will be on their way in the mail hopefully by Tuesday because my laser public holiday here and along with this there's no more flooding and a risk constant rain today. Hopefully I can get to a post office and send them on their way because they'll take a while to get there because one's going to Canada and one is going to USA. I have been tidying up my stash yarn and what I decided was on our rear aims this shelf is this is yarn that has been sent to me over a couple of years as gifts or I've wanted in a giveaway. Mainly gifts and I thought it's really remiss of me not to use that yarn on a project that I want to make something nice with and I have decided during my own going to find projects for some of this yarn. This yarn I have already decided on the project so to probably be first off the ranks this was sent to me as a random act of kindness by Sherry from Sherry's bag of Olig and yes I didn't even take them out of the plastic and I decided yes that will be first off the rank. Having said that I have one wall of hobby lobbies I love this yarn in yellow that was sent to me probably in my first hacky mail from Janet LaPray and every time I go to use it I go oh I can't use it I see I need a hobby lobby yarn I have and I've put it back I will have to use it one day but I think it will break my heart not to have at least one ball of hobby lobby yarn in my stash. The other thing I decided while hiding up my stash rather than do a scorched earth giveaway I just picked two people I want to send caramel to they will get some of my stash yarn that is new not used that I paid for and I'm going to send that two lots of caramel this week if I can get to a post office just pick two people I be meaning to do it for a while and these two people keep popping into my head so hopefully they'll get a nice surprise and then we'll put us back on their day I want to thank all those subscribers I keep getting to the went back and watched all my old videos and gave me my watch time back that I lost due to a copyright question it was really nice of you some people just watched everything others watched a few there are too many of you to single anyone out but it was really nice and I really appreciate it I got my watch time back up and it's not great it's I don't do lives it's really not something I've really given much thought to I may do one one day but it's always different with time changes me being in the summer summer hemisphere and a lot of people that subscribe we're in the northern hemisphere but you never know I do try and catch some lives especially my lunch hour work I have often dropped in on left is right send Sandy for a quick hello and a thumbs up crocheting me pink kelly I think I've dropped in on her and given her a thumbs up and said a quick hello while I'm having lunch it's always nice to let people know you're there I do try and watch some replay of lives but that's when time is permitting like today with all the rain the only thing I want to remind you of it is the best day make long April is coming to an end so make sure you post your pictures on Facebook or Instagram or email them to me it would be awesome so far pink is leading the way for the most popular color but we will see when we get to the end of April because May is my birthday month and I'm really excited about May coming along yes my birthday month is May and it's things birthday month as well so guys thank you for watching take care stay safe and remember make sure you have one crafty day maybe with a cup of tea bye for now you
