For those of you following my blog for a while and reading about my hesitations weather to work with stones or not, this design will probably come as a surprise, or maybe not? I actually decide to stop wanting to decide... meaning? I decided to explore it when it crosses my life, which it obviously does... from time to time :) so here are the very first birds from a larger collection of crocheted potion bags with a stone. The stones I picked for my very first designs are large pale amethyst, onyx coins in a mat finish and light turquoise coins. I was looking for a design where the stones wont necessarily win over the knitting....where both get to contribute to the relationship and relate to each other. The amethyst potion bags have 3 versions, one in silver, one in gold and the third in my favorite oxidized silver (aren't gray and pale purple perfect together ?) I hope you'll enjoy it :)
