I have had the old crochet hook out again.
It's hard to find things to crochet.
That are kind of socially acceptable.
I do realise that it is not everyone's cup of tea.
I think in the right circumstances.
And, when paired with an old wrinkly nightie from the dress up box.
It can look quite pretty.

I think they are fabulous. Like you say, crochet is not for everyone, we really don;t do doilies anymore, but who wouldn't just love crochet hangers...I really like all the little flower embellishments.
ReplyDeleteI love crocheted hangers. I use them to hang my winter cardigans. Sounds very Granny, doesn't it? And that nightie. Did you mean your personal dress up box...or the kids?? xx
ReplyDeleteCheck this out http://www.bcbusinessonline.ca/profiles-and-spotlights/people/anna-kosturova-queen-of-less This gal crochets bikinis and swim suits and they have been on the covers of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue! I couldn't wear one but she makes lots of money selling these.....
ReplyDeleteI do love the hangers though.
Brismod you cheeky thing! That would be the children's dress up box.
ReplyDeleteha, i loved your cheekiness, i think i'm using that aussie term correctly. i agree, this art isn't for the masses anymore but your photographs with the white nightie look quite romantic. and anything someone 'crafts' is always amazing to me since i've never crafted anything~
ReplyDeleteThey're gorgeous! You are very clever :)

Are you kidding! I think crocheted coathangers are the ants pants! Are yours are very pretty and covetable (and I don't use that word much!) Bit worried about you catching cold in that flimsy little nightie though :)
ReplyDeleteI think you're so clever! I can only do the most basic crochet .... I am waiting for mum's next visit to improve my skills! I love those hangers, so pretty! X
ReplyDeleteI wish I could crochet like that! Very clever of you Deb. Much better for your clothes as well especially woollens as Anita suggests. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThey are just lovely, I love crochet, have only done a little but would love to do more.
