Happy New year

 And let’s hope that peace comes to the world…

I have been busy crafting but mainly knitting this back end of the year still making Christmas ornaments and finally finished my tree 

I am busy making an elf on the shelf but he is taking some time….

I hope you all have a healthy start to the new year and look forward to blogging again.

Some more knitting

 This seems to have become a bit of an obsession at the moment…

Santa took me a week to make…he is huge!

Thanks for popping by today.

Door stop is finished…

 I have had so much fun knitting this 

It’s a door stop for Christmas…..he is huge and has taken me a while 

Thanks for popping by today.

Knitting Christmas

 This is the result of a week without tennis on the tv

I found a Jean Greenhowe Christmas special in a little wool shop in Selby and I just haven’t stopped knitting since…it’s amazing I have all the wool…in the loft…found my needles and got cracking…

I hope you are keeping cool….hottest day today so already blind down and fan on…take care 

A bit of knitting

 I went up into the loft and found some red wool so I decided to make a poppy wreath for Remembrance Day.....

And I have to say I really enjoyed making it apart from burning my fingers with hot glue....

I hope you are keeping safe and well and thanks for popping by today

something a bit different

I decided that whilst I sat watching the tennis at Wimbledon I would have a go at doing some knitting again....I cant do a lot these days as my arthritis plays me up so I thought something small....

so using a free pattern from off the internet and some crochet cotton that I have had for ages....off I go my first one was much too loose so I had to go down a needle size....

very pleased with myself ...no stuffing...off to the shops....then I decided to make a box...with an acetate lid...no none big enough ...off to the shops,onto the internet....

now how do I secure those sides without anything showing

a nice big bow!.....
Hope you are enjoying your crafting ....bless me how the time flies when you are having fun......
