Absent kitty....

Eeek well that time flew by, bad kitty! Old habits die hard! I've been busy though....crocheting, knitting, lots of gardening , reading and amusing my 3yr old ! Here's just a few pics to prove it! .....I've mastered sock knitting!!!!

Busy Bee

Well I've been seriously busy of late, lots of projects whirling around by head and not enough time to make them all or Blog about any of them ... until now! First of all Ive started a granny-stripe blanket which is seriously therapeutic and enjoyable, also obsessed with crochet cowls, just made one for Bubba this morning and remaking one that I made last night after deciding that I preferred the look of Mikes cowl to mine . And as for socks...I'm psyching myself up to mastering DPN's ( douple pointed needles) and knitting some socks! But after visiting my LYS ( local yarn shop) and buying some gorgeous variegated yarns and my fave "Sirdar" yarns I'm thinking more hats and cowls may come first 

Crochet Granny Bunting Unveil!

At long last my bunting is hung from my mantle and everything looks so cheerful! Sooooo happy with how this worked out. Rico creative cotton is wonderful stuff! Thanks to Alice from Crochet with Raymonds blog for the pattern! X

Bag unveil!

My extra big Kool Kotton yarn bag! inspired from the yarn bag on Attic24 but with an Allie Cat twist! Makes me think of flower bulbs and Chinese flying lanterns. Extra large in order to accommodate an upcoming Blanket project... Watch this space ! But first, I need to make a case for my iPhone and I'm thinking owls...
