Mindfulness in Red, White and Green

"One of the reasons crochet is so relaxing is because it allows us to achieve mindfulness, the state of being in which we are fully immersed in the present moment. This gives the mind a much-needed break from worries about the past and future, allowing the brain and body to both rejuvenate themselves."


Christmas crochet is created in November!


Upper left: Tabletop Mandala, measuring 50 cm across
Upper right: close-up of the stitches. Can you see the heart shapes?
Lower left: smaller doily to give as a gift with a red Amaryllis plant
in a big pot.  The smaller squares are coasters, always useful for mugs and vases.


I hope you are having a lovely weekend. We are sitting under a heavy, light grey stretch of stratus clouds which are uniform and flat giving the sky an impenetrable opaque look! It's candle and fairy lights weather and imagining that I have a log fire burning in the imagined fireplace!
