Well I had good intentions to start the New Year with lots of projects for myself but have gone off at a bit of a tangent. I knitted a dozen headbands for Lynne's stall using up the small amounts of pampas yarn left over from the neck warmers I knitted before Christmas. Then I helped out a colleague of my sister by knitting some premature baby cardigans, I do hope they fit as they are only just big enough to fit a doll. Last week I went with a friend to the sale at Fabric Freedom in Bradford so now have yards and yards of fabric to make into quilts, bags, cushions and kits, a big task!
My knitting projects include a fair Isle cushion cover, a cable cardigan, hats for a sailor's charity, another baby cardigan and i bought the yarn on Friday to make a throw. Perhaps if i get snowed in I will have a chance of completing something this month!
And my New Year resolution? To clear out the workroom, a mammoth task!

2015
Well Christmas is now over and friends and family have opened their presents, or at least I assume they have as I have not heard from all the family as yet, so I can share some of the photos of gifts that I made.
The biggest task was the knitted socks for a lot of friends, I made 9 pairs so had to start back in the summer to make sure that they were all finished on time. The 2 new members of the family each acquired a hand knitted Peter Rabbit which again had to be started in the summer and for lady friends and family I made bath bombs and melts. I was asked to make the little mouse for my friend Gill's granddaughter to complete the family group that I made a couple off years ago.
Happy New Year to all my readers.
