Last year we had squares from South Africa
from Laura of My House in Africa
This year Christelle of Haak-en-Sikie
has sent us 2 gorgeous little squares to
keep South Africa in the running!
Apparently Christelle was on holiday
in Austria when she sent her squares..
Do you think she was organised enough
to make them in SA and take them on
holiday with her... or did she make them
in Austria?
Both squares are from a pattern called,
'Ingrid tea Cosy' which is on Christelle's
friend's blog I Love Pom-poms...
Another beautiful blog to discover too!
The yarn Christelle has used is from a
locally produced cotton called 'Vinnis'.
How I wish there was a locally produced
yarn in Oxford, UK! The top square is made
with Vinnis Nikkim and the bottom one
is made using Vinnis Serina which is an
organic bamboo.

Christelle also hosts a crochet group on
Facebook called 'Ons Hekel' (We Crochet)
They make some amazing crochet articles.
There are 946 members!

Send me up to 4 squares by

A small note from me: I have listed 10 balls
of scarf yarn (the one ball makes one scarf
type) on Ebay UK.. the auctions end in three days
and they are all starting at 99p... go get yourself
a bargain! I sell as oxfordglass.
Hugs, Jill x
Pretty squares with the colours of nature.
