Crochet Christmas tree angel, video tutorial
In the late 80's I decided to make a quick-t-crochet angel for Christmas tree. I was then working in Northern ireland as a craftsperson. I noticed how much people wanted to decorate their homes for Christmas. Over the years i have made hundreds of these, if not over a thousand. Many of the come put every Christmas time in Ireland, Finlad as well as many other countries. I have used these to send to friends instead of Christmas cards.
Now I decided to finally make instructions for crocheting the angel. This time the pattern is only on video. I want to see how many hits it will get. Making video tutorials is fun! Enjoy my accent that is a mix of Finnish and Northern Irish :)

Crochet circles for staircase
My daughter has a yoga and dance hall with a boring staircase leading up to it. She wanted something bright, colourful and handmade for it. I decided to make crochet circles. Each circle is different.
Many more are needed because the staircase is high. But this is a good start!
Corner of the mirror:
A couple of photos of the room itself. My daughter loves just as bright colours as I do!
This project taught me also not to take anything for granted. The girls had glued some of the circles with the wrong side facing up. I had forgotten that if someone doesn't crochet, they don't know which side is right or wrong! But I didn't turn them, the paint would have come with them!
