Ceramic and Japanese ink necklaces

Fairfield Primary School had a Maker's Market yesterday, and I made these little necklaces to sell.  They are made from clay and printed with Japanese ink.  I think this Christmas will be the 'jewellery' Christmas.

Knitted dishwashing cloths and scourers

Last Christmas was the year of the handmade dishcloth.  However, my enthusiasm stretched over the Christmas holidays and since then I have sporadically knitted away as I have come across balls of cotton in op shops.  Here is my current collection of knitted cloths and scourers.  I have done double yarn knitting to ensure they last longer.  Warning that knitting jute is quite scratchy on your hands!
