In The New Year






Well everyone Happy New Year!!!!!!!

I do hope everyone had a brilliant Christmas and new year, i certainly did. Sorry i haven't been posting as much recently. During December I've been really busy with work (i work in retail in the winter so you can imagine). I was also ill for a while but am all OK now so that's all that matters.


Time for a little update then. Over the past month or so i have been really busy with my knitting. I've made my partners sister a baby blanket which i gave her at Christmas, my sister got a pair of socks and now I've started a new project.


I'm currently making a teddy bear for a friend of mine. Its going to be a surprise for her. You see she is pregnant so its going to be for the new baby. With that in mind i am making the bear out of soft baby wool so it will be kind to him or her. I'm using stylecraft wondersoft double knit in cream. Seeing as my friend wont be finding out the sex of the baby I'm making the teddy in cream and will more than likely put a yellow bow on it. That should be finished in about a week or so, I'm moving onto making the body this afternoon.

Other than that i have no other news really. I have my next project in mind for when the bear is finished. I'm going to teach myself circular knitting with the help of online videos. I'm not one for sewing up you see and circular knitting takes out that part so i thought id give it a go. Ill let you know in a few weeks how its going.


Take care everyone and Happy 2011 x
