I'm still up to the usual, chipping away on a jug cover or two. This one is being blocked and will be given as a gift today.
When time permits, I am also playing around with some Habu stainless steel. I bought some a few weeks ago and have been having a bit of a play.
There's pattern-followed play...
and some free form...
It's so very fine and therefore lovely and delicate to play with. The special thing about the stainless steel Habu is that it has a "memory", meaning it you can stretch it or crush it and it will keep it's shape. It's so much fun.
I have a few interesting ideas I'm toying with. Hopefully they will make a show in this space soon.

Ooh, the stainless steel is intriguing. I especially like the black freeform version.
Just super love the stainless steel. Looking forward to watching this adventure progress.

So beautiful. I love your jug covers very much. you are very clever!
I never thought I'd be saying that "stainless steel" looked so delicate and soft! Like the finest, most beautiful spider web Melanie - gorgeous ;) x
Good grief, amazing detail, insanely lovely!! Love Posie
Yet another fabulous jug cover. I think I need to commission one from you for a friend... (one who has jugs, snicker snicker). Let's chat. As for that Habu, looks WICKED, don't let Tania see it or she'll be acting all crazy-like.
Stainless steal... wow!! I do like the purple jug cover but the black ones look so 'delicate gothic' like.

I can't believe that's stainless steel....you have made it look so gorgeous...
I love that purple jug cover! I can't believe the other ones are stainless steel. Brilliant!
oh my Melanie these are sooooo beautiful and the jug cover at the top is divine such pretty colours
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. 'nuff said.
Wow - stainless steel. What a brilliant idea. Is it tricky to work with? I imagine that it is... but who knows. How creative are you to even think of it. Brilliant.
Love the new look blog header too. You've got such great style.
So so delicate - I dont know how you do such teeny tiny things...
Lady, I admire your Habu-ing. I imagine there would be a smidge more control doing the crochet thing, but I reckon I'll sit back and admire - knitting the stuff with a single strand Does My Head In. Not to mention the eyeballs!
. I love your jug covers very much. you are very clever!
