I've Made Friday Week 25

I hope you are all having a good week!

I hope Friday is just as good!

I know I showed you some of the hats the other

day but here they are again if you hadn't seen them.

The hats I've made this week:

(patterns for purchase are linked to each picture)

Ladybird

  

                                Frog Hat Newborn                                      Frog Hat 3-6mnths

 Frog Hat 6-12 months

   

                           Meerkat Hat                                                       Bear Hat

Mouse Hat

Then there are the hats I've finished for me:

This is my folded hat. 

It was based slightly on the pattern I bought the other week

and didn't work for me.

It's difficult to see in this light but it has a folded part at the front.

I'm planning on finding a beautiful pin or button to go on the side

or maybe a flower.

If I decide I like it I might make it in another colour as well

so you can see the design better.

This is an eyelit cloche 

that I bought the pattern of from etsy.

The pattern also includes a flower & a brim if you want it as well 

And this is the Julia cloche hat

that I have finished :-)

I bought the pattern at Ravelry

I altered the pattern slightly as I wanted a removable brim

  

                        Without                                               With

I'm also thinking of making a white flower that I can attach if I want but I haven't decided yet.

By the way all the hats are in black as I am wearing a black and white dress.

This is a last minute add and I'm afraid the pictures aren't brilliant.
I just couldn't wait to show you.

My chicken hat.

Little Red already wanted it before I'd even finished it.

This is a quick update with better pictures

This week I read:

Kindle:

Book:
 

I've got a bit of a mixed review for this one.

The author is a good writer

& I am sure that a different story would be a better read.

The basics of the story is it's about 

a thirteen yr old boy called Aaron.

His life has changed for the worse since his dad died.

He overhears a bank robbing gang

and from there things take a turn for the worse.

Some people love the book

but I just couldn't accept the story as it just got 

more and more far-fetched!

The worse it got the angrier I got with the story.

I carried on reading as the writing is good

& I hate not finishing a book.

In some ways I wish I hadn't.

The ending was so sickly sweet & unbelievable!

Sorry but this isn't one for me.

I give this book 2 out of 5

Now it's your turn

It doesn't have to be crocheting

anything you've made is more than welcome!
