Crochet bangle...



...or bracelet? Can I use both words or is one of them better describing this little crochet thing? :)

I made this one by crocheting around a plastic ring. I got the ring as I bought a scarf. The store was closing so you got also the stuff they used for hanging up the scarfs and other stuff. It fits perfectly as a bangle :)

The crochet was made really tight so I could create the little wave like structure on the outside. It reminds me of the fin around the head of a calamar ^^


This is Grusel, one of my little black devils. Every one of my three black cats knows that they get the best effect with their shiny fur by lying on bright fabrics! 

And yes, there is an egyptian cat goddess in the background. It was a present for me, an replica from a museum :)

The text on the base says:

Egyptian cat:
The ancient egyptian cat is sacred to Bast, the goddess of love, fertility and joy. These cats were characteristically upright, confident of their power and beauty.

Suits for my little (not so little for cats) ones :)

  2. crochelet? ;)
    I gotta try this, love the wavy effect!
    I swear my cats know how to look their best, too. I wonder if they practice being cute secretly and then show off their skills?
    One of my rats was named Bastet- she was unaware of the irony, but her grace and beauty certainly honoured her namesake.
