Crochet Fruit de Mer Platter 
Lobster, Prawns, Langoustine, Mussels and a Welk... plus some lemon and leaves. 

A few different sized lobsters... think Goldilocks and the 3 Lobsters... I'm definitely keeping the big teal one, not quite sure what I'll do with the other 2...

And a crochet jumper for me! It's the Kay Crochet 'Bobbilicious' pattern from Etsy - it is a tad bit too small and snug, but I'm hoping it will stretch a bit. I think I might remake it in a medium (and a different colour) in the autumn. 

It's been a bit crochet heavy here, but I have managed one drawing since my last post - this beautiful blackbird, who sadly died after flying into my Dad's study window.

And I finished off this French knot stitching, which will form part of a series of 10 hoops...

This week I've got a couple of commissions to get finished, and then hopefully I'll settle back down to a bit more drawing. I've been finding it really hard to focus on drawing and find the right imagery and subject matter at the minute... Hopefully inspiration will hit again before too long.
