Purple cotton top

I made this pattern again. I used 8 skeins ice yarn tube cotton and 4mm needles. I had 22cm of yarn left over. 

T shirt top

I made this Pattern 10 cm longer. I used 8 skeins of Ice Yarn tube cotton in navy, blue and white and 4mm needles. 

Revamped hat

My mum gave me this hat years ago. The brim had become tatty so I revamped it. I used 4 threads of Coats Virtuoso cotton in hot pink with a 3mm hook and added a chained double band. 

Table runner

I made this filet in the 1990s. I found it last week when I had a clear out of my storage cupboard. It was a pattern from a Crochet Monthly magazine on a 1.75mm hook with cotton thread. 

Kitchen Mat

I made a bag from these motifs originally, however as I used it once only, decided to recycle it. I sewed it onto a piece of leftover carpet to make a comfy mat to stand on when prepping meals.
