Yesterday as the weather was OK I decided to go to Liverpool via the ferry. This means finding my way to the ferry terminal at Seacombe which I am not very good at. I have yet to master the art of geting though Birkenhead without getting in the 'tunnel only' lanes. The last time I went there I ended up taking an unintentional trip through both both the Wallesey Tunnel and the Queensway Tunnel. Managed a bit better this time though and caught the ferry OK. (The Royal Iris which apparantly was commandered and saw active service during the war). |
Determined to do some crocheted flowers in mohair, spring colours. Checked out some ideas on You Tube and made a start. First one not too good, (top left) second better but a bit small (top right) so made the next one bigger. This one seemed OK so wrote the pattern down so I could repeat. Made the last two into brooches for sale (bottom two). | Walked through the re-furbished Albert Dock which I always find fascinating. Popped into one of the shops and found a nice pair of navy leather gloves which I have been looking out for for a while, and at just £5 they were a bargain! Back through the town to the ferry and home to do some crafting. |
