Something New

I thought I'd start something new as I've become board of stitching so I've picked up my knitting to help my mum with an order from work.
This is the beginnings of a baby cardigan from a SIRDAR pattern in double knit, it took four tries to get this pattern right and i almost gave up but I'm glad to say i stuck to it and its coming
along lovely.
We have had some weird weather lately one minute its raining hard enough to break windows and the next its sunny and theirs not a cloud in the sky strange and really awkward when you wanna go shopping but are afraid of getting caught in the rain lol. Hope the rest of you have nice weather lol

That's a pretty pattern Sammy Jo. It's years since I've done any knitting. I did loads of baby stuff when I was pregnant with Jess including a shawl and a christening gown. I'll have to pop a piccie of her in it when she was christened. Abi wore it too and I've kept it and the shawl:)

You're not kidding about the weird weather! I put some washing out Friday afternoon and I didn't realise it was throwing it down until was too late to bring it all in. Then the sun came out and within no time my washing was dry again!

One Last Time...

... i know i've posted countless pics of tatty but i swear this is his last vist to my blog, i just thought that seen as you have all seen him grow from crosses to a teddy bear you should also get to see him completely finished as a christmas present. It took an awfully long time to get the border straight and neat but after a few tries i managed i,ve used two different fabrics, underneath is soild red marble and the top is red silk net with gold stars. Then came the ribbon that i stitched around the outside now that was the real pain but was totally worth it when i saw my mums face on christmas day. sammyjo

Happy Halloween

Hi guys, Happy Halloween to you all :D Little miss had a very fun day dressed as a kitty all day. then her grandad and auntie took her trick or treating for hour while mummy handed out sweeties to other little 'monsters'. I love Halloween just because you have an excuse to dress your little humans up all cute or scary for the fun of it. I have no doubt that this wont be the one and olny time my daughter wears this dress as she had fun pretending to be a cat and wiggle her tail all day. Hope you all had fun too Till next time Take Care SJ
