Wow - the first of February - I didn't mind that January flew by - I'm enjoying the extra hours of daylight!
I was all set to whine about my difficulty trying to crochet a mobious wrap when suddenly the pattern worked out - go figure! Instead, I'll show you an African Flower that I recently crocheted with cotton yarn. Since I have a lot of pincushions I made it into a lid cover.
For the Celtic/Gaelic/Pagan celebration of February and the first awakenings of spring - Imbolc - this is a design by the Primitive Hare.

Oh Kate, what a sweet and charming lid cover! I just love how colorful it is :)
Thanks for sharing and have a most wonderful day! Hugs!
Wonderful pieces, it has been a long time since I did any crochet, not sure if my brain could follow along now;)

Hi Kate, didn't know anything about Imbolc so I had to look it up - Mr Google knows everything!
It's nice to see the beginnings of spring. The lid cover is wonderful too.
Your crocheted African flower looks wonderful as a lid cover. And well done successfully completing the möbius shawl! Love your latest stitchery.
What I like best about February is the fact that the sun comes up a little earlier each morning and sets a little later each evening. That promises spring, you are right. This week you could think that easily because we are having plus temperatures, even during the nights - after several weeks with temps of -15°C during the night and sometimes even during the day. Not what I prefer, lol.
Great projects that you finished, Kate. I love that lid cover a lot, so colourful. And your stitched piece looks great, too. The Primitive Hare has several of these Celtic/Gaelic designs and some of them are also in my stash.
The lid cover looks great! Such a good idea!
i love the little lamb, too! Thank you for the link!
Have a wonderful February! :o)
Love your lid cover, Kate! It is a lovely addition to your pincushion collection. Sweet lamb and thank you for sharing the link! Enjoy your day!
African flower is on my list to learn. I've just finished a crocheted hexagon afghan...taking ages to stitch them together but so happy with it. Love the Primitive Hare too and your little sayings. Happy stitching to you!
note to myself: learn to crocher ^^
Very pretty lid cover, mmmm I think I need to go and make one!
