this is one of my projects, when finished it will be a shawl/wrap for a friend who has been very poorly~hopefully something she can cuddle up in when having a bad day.
the photos really do not do justice to the colour so i may well take it into the garden tomorrow for another photo shoot.
i bought a set of 12 bamboo hooks recently~the metal ones i have felt too hard in my hand, the bamboo ones feel so much softer and organic and are a joy to use.

what a lovely gift ~ wrapping your friend in love xo
I love bamboo! the clothes and combs are gorgeous too.. I even have bamboo toothbrushes.
you know we could get a little organic/sustainable/recycled/handmade swap going :)
Bamboo forests could be an answer to so many creative issues - as long as they dont fell trees to make room for it. It grows in the hedges here so we have it ' on tap ' for veg plot and fence use. We also buy bamboo paper coffee filtres. I would like to learn the skill of crochet - so versatile. Maybe when we have finished renovating I'll have a go ! Lucky friend - she'll feel so snug and hugged.
rather gorgeous:)
Oh you and that crocheting! I am sooo envious! Looks really lovely :)
