Advent Calendar 3, Days Left 22

Pretty, pretty.


I made a crocheted angel this year - is this the start of another collection? It only took a short time to make from this pattern using cotton yarn and a size 3.5mm hook (I think!) Here it is after being soaked in a solution of PVA glue to stiffen it. It may take a fair while to dry out - I hope it's dry in time for this Christmas.


I shall show you it made up when it finally dries.

Found the stocking yet?


I am linking my Advent Garland to KC's Court again this year for a really Advent Bloggy Christmas.

  1. The angels looking good. I tried some stars a couple of years ago and they were a flop, even with PVA, what's the secret? Mine also turned a horrible shade of brown. Must have been inferior glue! Suzy x

  2. Does the PVA make it stiff enough to free stand? Very pretty angel :)
