Lace poncho for a girl

I finished Poncho N:o 2 this morning.
 
 
Here is the lace pattern I repeated  (46 rounds).
 
 
Six yellow rounds, two flashy pink ones, six yellow ones, two baby pink ones, six yellow rounds ...
 
 
Until I had these two rectangular pieces.

 
Sewn together.

 
Finishing all the ends..... (toughest job!)
 
 
After 16 hours of crocheting, 200g of yellow yarn, 60g of flashy pink one and less that 50g of baby pink - Done!

Linen summer blouse

My first week of summer holidays has started off well. Once the sun was gone for a day or two I had time to finish this little summer blouse.



It is made out of linen yarn, I found in a mysterious bag full of yarn, I had hidden in my closet.

 
The toughest part was to figure out where the yarn starts.


 
Please, yarn makers, make it easier for us!


Front and back pieces.
 
 
Sleeves. I made the sleeves a bit bigger to give them this loose summerish look.



The outcome is pretty sweet, I think. So quick and so easy to crotchet.

 
Now the BIG question is: What next?
