Matching piece



Spoiled myself with a beautiful delicate tricot 'knitted marvel' from
the new Cora Kemperman collection. 
Made a matching necklace for it.
Too bad the color on the picture isn't a 100 % good.

Exercise in balance


Inspired by the blogpost from ArtMind about making a
combination of her famous sculptures "feelings"
one called : stress in balance (awesome how she did this)n
I thought I would like to give the 'balance'
a 'crochet' try too (and leave the stress behind )
