CROCHET - NO HOLES - detailed pics
Crochet completed in rounds without turning over, but with no holes to create corners. Makes a smooth dense crochet fabric in double crochet without the ridges you get if you turn the work over and work back and forth. Makes a very warm rug from very cheap acrylic yarn!

Pyramid purse - overlapped opening
Small purse in a pyramid shape with an opening that overlaps so it doesn't require a zip or other fastening. Adapted from a pyramid purse with zip on this site. Sorry it's a bit rough! I just made up a prototype and it worked out so well, had to share!

Almost Christmas eve and I haven't bought or made anything for my partner... *sigh* Too busy painting and sewing carry and library bags to raise money for a local rural volunteer fire brigade whose (don't laugh!) shed and equipment burned down about 18 months ago. I've never painted much, but ...
