This week....

There has been lots of this ( I'm actually a bit further on than this with my big quilt but it's been too gloomy to photograph ) The stash is oficially being busted !


This little pot holder is a present for my friend's Birthday, she has two little dogs that are very similar to these ones, Esme and Denzil.




I even managed to make a pocket in the back : )


And as I am officially hooked on knitting socks this is the start of the second pair but with the right size needles. This wool is beautiful and it's super wash so I can actually use the socks I make yay.


Now I must away and prepare for a small persons sixth birthday.

Have a wonderful week,

  1. Ooooh that sock yarn sounds (and looks) like just the thing I need. My socks are made from cashmerino 4 ply and will only cope with being worn as bed socks.

    I realise now that my last comment to you sounded very rude. I was trying to convey that I was sad I had missed the post as I totally loved those little pot stands. It was my round abouts way of complimenting you! I should have been more on the ball.

    Your hexy quilt looks suuuuuuuuuper. Very neat. Lovely fabric choices too.

  2. I have a long-standing ambition to knit socks as the yarns as so lovely. If only I could find the time.
