Summer is nearly over!!!

Hi everyone. All i can say, as i seem to start all my post, is that I'm sorry for not posting more often. My job in the summer is crazy busy but that's no excuse!!!!


Also in the last few weeks i lost my mojo again and had a project on the needles for ages before it was finished. Anyway it is finished now all i have to do is but the buttons on then I'll post a picture on my Ravelry page.

So where am i at. Well i have made few more toys for people. I made another cream teddy bear for someone who is expecting a baby, i made different coloured bows so she can put the right one on for if its a boy or a girl.


I also did my first knitting where i used 2 colours at the same time. My dads girlfriend wanted something making in pink with the name 'Chloe' on it. As i love knitting the hippo pattern i chose this in bright pink. I looked at the pattern and with the help of people at my mums knitting group and the Internet i came up with a chart which would help me knit the name into the work. It came out really good as you can see from the photograph. The only thing i would say is that next time i might use a darker shade of purple to help it stand out more, but she was happy with it.

So my plans at the moment are to work on one of the 2 other teddy bears i have on order. I'm using a different pattern i found online and will be posting about it in my Rav page so have a look. Photos will follow through my flickr account when I've finished it.

I have also seen a couple of new and really cute baby cardigan patterns i would like to try. So I'm going to be giving them ago as well. My problem is i only like to have one project on the go at any one time, i don't know why i just do, so i have to finish my first teddy before i can move onto a cardigan.


I shall keep you all up to date with how things are going. Talk to you soon.

Happy Knitting.
