WYSIWYG

What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Menocreatikul; More Makerings

Do you remember my wee mate Clarke??? Golly, has he been a help to me these several months. Makes my care works more tolerable and lifts the weight from weary legs when I rest them on him of an evening. 

However, I kept saying I would make him a coat. Not just that, but also a tail, by which I could trail him around the house to wherever he was needed. 

I present you the well-dressed stool!!!


The 'tail' is just a length of single crochet tied to the rise and drop lever underneath. Easily grabbed and then I can 'walk' Clarkie to the required position. Needless to say, I started with no real plan (or pattern) and just followed my instincts. I think this is the definition of yarn-bombing!!!

So, perhaps, I am yarn-bombing my feet? Another pair of slippers, resembling ballet pumps...

    Hi Yam than goodness you have Clarke close by anytime you need him and he is dressed to the 9's too. I love his attire.
    In your 2nd slipper shot I think you are doing a very excellent ballet pose and well done on the fun mixture of yarns and it appears the are matched nicely to your top.
    Sending lots of hugs and purrs that you and Clarke get to spend some much needed '2(feet) one 1(Clarke' time tonight

    Very clever. The crochet ballet pumps are a hit. Beautifully modelled too!
    Cheers, Gail.
    PS Bertie wants to know if you've seen the new story about the St Bernard who collapsed on Scafell Pike and had to be stretchered off by the Mountain Rescue? https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/jul/26/st-bernard-dog-rescued-after-collapsing-on-scafell-pike

    You made me laugh out loud, and that's wonderful. I cannot call such lovely needlework "yarnbombing"!

    Your feet suggest you are practicing Tai Chi. Happy centering. (Centred humans make me feel very relaxed.) Furrings and Purrings. Mr T

    Oh my gosh what a cute stool. And at first I thought this was just going to be a post about a stool but then I kept scrolling and reading and there was all those adorable slippers and the last two photos I just love love love love love. I like this pair a lot I love strappy sandals these are strappy slippers. Strappy slippers are really much hippers. That's the start of my next rap song

    I'm loving this 'bombing'. OOooh! you better keep an eye on Clarke --with that tail, he may get idea;)
    Question: Why is he called Clarke? Is there a post I could read to find out?
    Cute as a button slippers--drooling.
