Talented Tuesday Link Party – No.8

December 16, 2014December 16, 2014Blogging2 Comments

Welcome to Talented Tuesday No. 8!

This week, we have all been busy sharing little bits of Christmas with you all… you may notice that our hostess projects for this week are themed because it’s almost CHRISTMAS!! I am preparing for our parents and my brother to visit for 3 weeks. Though they are not staying with us, we have still tried to be as Christmassy as possible. Adam’s parents arrive tonight and mine arrive tomorrow with my brother. :-0 Next week, we are skipping a link up with it being so close to Christmas. Our next Talented Tuesday link party will be on the 30th December! Make sure to follow us below and keep up to date with what we are getting up to over the Christmas period. 🙂

The first project started quite a few weeks ago and has taken me a lot of time of on/off crocheting! These little crochet Christmas sets for Santa & Rudolph are from the Molly Makes Handmade Christmas book.
I am still new to crochet but found these instructions easy to follow, and I’m very pleased with how they have turned out! A couple of these sets have gone to the UK for Christmas presents, and we have kept one too!
