A different day for me at the Reay School. Caught up with old friends, made new ones and had a lovely few hours in the very hot, wonderful sunshine. People loved my work. Had put in a good amount of hours making hair things in beautiful colours but the mandala pendants sold far better than anything else. All in all a success with children, parents and staff. Hope to go back to Reay School soon to do some beginner crochet workshops for the children, when they come back in September. It's very encouraging to see how many of them are interested in learning the skill. One up for the children. The love of crochet is for all ages

More bag pendants/ bags with long string
More bags with long string or pendant bags, as I call them. Different designs, colourful and simple but very pleasant to the eye. Some are based in traditional patterns, like the square bags and the lace ones. Hope you like these. They have many uses. The very small, simple bags are ideal for usb keys/memory sticks. Can also be made to order. I do accept commisssions. Please do contact me here.
Crochet bag pendants/ bags with long string
These bags have a long string so they can be worn around the neck. Some are ideal for a crystal, but you can use them with money, keys, keepsakes, etc. In many different colours and designs. 100% cotton thread. Handmade by Anabela Fern.
More crochet bags in various colours
I love making little crochet bags. They look great and can be so very useful. Ideal for keeping jewellery safe from damage, they can also be used to keep crystals, mementos and keepsakes of all kinds. They make very original gift bags for a special person or occasion. Here in red/dark red, red, golden/white mix, more red, red/ green/ yellow mix, pink, and white. 100% cotton thread. Handmade by Anabela Fern
Crochet lighter socks in various colours
These very nice and useful lighter socks have long strings so you can hang them around your neck. People are always losing their lighters, this makes it so much easier to hang on to them. The string can be removed very easily. In various colours: lime green, pink, green, blue mix, purple/blue mix, rainbow mix, orange/white. 100% cotton thread as all other crochet items. Handmade by Anabela Fern
