Shinkage

I inadvertently shank this cardi when I decided to wash it again and thought 'it would be alright' if I put it in the dryer for a few minutes. It lost 4" off the length but actually fits better than before. Every cloud and that.

Still for sale, just had to hastly change measurements and re-take photos.

Worst things happen at sea. It would be tiny.

Mums Shop

With the sun gone for the foreseeable future, I spent yesterday re-taking photos for my mums shop on etsy.

Sketch Book

Christmas Rush

Well almost. More of a quickened pace than an all out stampede. But its keeping me busy and stopping my mind from a wondering. Hard work seems to be paying off :)

New brooch design made from cashmere, Swarovski and feathers but have yet to find suitable packaging so as yet is not for sell.

Cables

Everyones favourite winter knit, especially the reindeer.

Keeping Warm

Introducing a new line in hot water bottle covers. "About time!" I hear you cry. How ever did you manage before.

New Discoveries

Should be titled: New Discoveries That Were Always There But Was Too Lazy To Find.

Moved my eyes an inch higher up the screen and found how to make collages on Picasa2. I am, a genius.

Lost & Found

Wise words. Came back from a mornings charity shop rummaging, to discover a long forgotten lottery ticket hidden deep in my purchase. Having never done the lottery myself, this resulted in a full 5 seconds of merriment.

Closer inspection revealed said ticket to be 12 years old but I like to think it may have been THE ticket back in '97.

Talk to the Hand

Bought a few more delights at the weekend. My favourite being 'The Hand'. I seem to have a few of these lines missing, not sure what that says.

Autumn Picking

I think I love Autumn best out of all the big 4. Cold days with lots of sunshine would be perfect. Went a blackberry picking across the road for an hour and actually managed to pick more than were eaten. Scouts honour.

Scrumptious with vanilla ice-cream. Polished off nicely.

Closest thing to a self-portrait. Although, I do have longer arms.
