Hedgerow Harvest

note - the calyx on the semi ripe berries is a paler green than the calyx on the ripe ones.

Those Blackberries have turned out perfect Jenny,looks absolutely marvellous

 

so clever Jen those blackberries look so real if you dint know better you would think they are

 

Thank you everyone. If it made you smile, that's all that matters,
Jenny

 

That's lovely Jenny. Don't let Scrungee see it, he's already picked his area clean of blackberries.

 

A new little cosy for our own early morning teapot. To blend in with the kitchen colours:

Its very cute and the colours are beautiful

I have been working on xmas products for my shop. So made snowflake trellis with the idea being you wont see them in summer under a deciduous climber and come winter you have decorations already up lol

 

They look great Dips. Would look pretty in white/silver yarn too maybe ?
Jenny

 

Yeh they would but then i couldn't sell them as a garden trellis

Unfortunately the polypropylene twine only comes in blue, red, green and yellow

Which is frustrating as silver would look amazing. I can get white polypropylene twine but it looks horrible crocheted up

 

For the Follow the Herring project, ladies were cutting the tube of a white carrier bag into a continuous thin strip and crocheting it up to form waves that broke over the front of the herring boat's bow,
maybe it might work for white snow flakes?
Jenny?

 

That sounds wickid. It might work but i think they would disintegrate quite quickly outside which would be no good as a trellis.

I really wish i could get silver glittery polypropylene twine that would be amazing.

 

Would this be too floppy?

Does lurex rot?

And possibly i currently use 2mm thickness i think

Which keeps them sturdy but flexible
