I can now reveal the bag I made for my swap pal, Rooknits
I think she likes her package as she has written a lovely post over on her blog....Ruth has a thing for Miffy, imagine my delight when I found this material to line it with!?
I made this darling hat for Sullivan, I love the shape of it and can't wait to see if it fits him.
I used the yarn left over from my Have a Heart Socks that I made a while ago. The Casbah yarn is so beautiful and really soft when knitted on 3mm needles as opposed to sock tension!
I have now made two of these cute cardigans for my little granddaughters. Both in Debbie Bliss Alpaca/Silk so not an itch in sight!!
These take just a day to make, great fun and I think that maybe this pattern could be adapted to fit bigger people too!
The stitch is easy and looks good too.
I am in the middle of washing ironing and packing as not only are we moving but we are off to France for a week soon!
Blooming weather, this rain comes on so fast and heavy that I don't get a warning about getting in the washing and now it is all dripping on the line! Wish the rain clouds would go and dump their load somewhere else for today, this is really slowing down my production line!
Merry Christmas 2024!
