Hello exhibitioners, with a little prodding the moment has come where I have become intrinsically motivated to crochet again. Perhaps it was Bec posting her sweet cuppie cake. Perhaps it was this cool spell after the heat of the last 2 weeks. or... it may just be quite simply for fear that if I don't crochet now it will suddenly be March and I will not have a thing to show for it!
My plan for the fringe involves crocheting cans of food. Some ideas are
- canned baby carrots
- canned peas
- canned SPAM (eeeeew!)
- canned corn
- canned pineapple rings
- tinned sardines
Why cans of food? I don't quite know, it just came to me. I Googled it and found a couple of inspiring crochet cans of food but not many. I like that it's not a commonly crocheted thing :)
So here are some photos of the first can - Canned Peas. I will embroider the label onto felt or straight onto the can - not too sure which will work/look better :S
More to come soon (I hope!). I hope to be putting some snaps up in the next few weeks on my blog thrift.nest.sew, do pop by to see how my motivation and eagerness is going x
Ooh I love the idea!! I think I'm going to do food too, a woollen high tea or something like that. Those peas in their pods are so cute!
