65 of #100daysofcelticknots is this doodle, drawn 65 of #100daysofcelticknots is this doodle, drawn whilst waiting for my dragons to appear on the next colouring book page. They didn't want to be drawn today ๐Ÿ˜„ I think this pattern would make a lovely hand-carved brooch for a knitted shawl. One day!

She's not on here, so I can show it before it goes! The inner part is made from a gelli and lino printing session I did over a year ago, and have lots of papers to choose from from that. Need to get those printing inks out again, it's been too long!
Finished knitting @nickybarfoot @nickybarfootknits Finished knitting @nickybarfoot @nickybarfootknits Vintage Mittens pattern last night, and love the result! I used stash yarns of Trekking Hand Art (green) and Araucania Ranco (pink). Seeing as it's supposed to get down to -4ยฐC tonight, and snow predicted tomorrow and Tuesday, I'll get use out of them straight away!
The little bit of time I've had each evening for 5 The little bit of time I've had each evening for 57-61 of #100daysofcelticknots has been taken up creating this border on an A4 page for my next page for my colouring book. The border will contain a couple of my dragons very soon! ๐ŸŒž
