Happy New Year!


Well folks - back at last! Not been blogging much but have been knitting a plenty. I decided to take a break from ickle people knitting over Christmas and knit my lovely husband a hoody. It seemed a bit unfair that he never gets anything becaue I'm always knitting for other people!!! With a little help from my mum I got it done over the Christmas and new year week. I'll get around to posting him in it at some point!
Since being back on task I've knitted a lovely pair of Blue Lion King longies, a pair of longies in the round and now this gorgeous skirty. I'm really pleased with this one. It's for the little girly I childmind for so a bit special. I've popped it on the site as a custom style though. I was rather amazed at how much yarn it took. Frills are very labour intensive!!!
We've had loads of snow this past week - Ihaven't been able to brave going out as we live on a hill that is like an ice slick. I can just about make it solo - but I wouldn't trust myself with a buggy and toddler in tow! Oh well - means lots of snuggling on the sofa and knitting!
Love to everyone and a big Happy New Year!!!
