Busy, Busy, Busy.

Well, it has been an extremely busy and tiring week this week, as I have had month end to contend with and Peanut has been very poorly again, this time with a throat infection.  She is on antibiotics, which finally seem to be doing the trick, but I really do not like it when either of my munchkins are ill.... it disrupts my entire world, and I can not concentrate properly on anything either than their well being and ensuring there are lots of kisses and snuggles available as and when required.


I'm lucky that I work from home, so I can pick up month end when my Munchkins' are sleeping and settled, but it has meant that I have been doing all sorts of hours and am feeling quite tired myself, which has not left much time to create, although I have done this bit of doodling in between calls and work.......

I do think they are kind of cute and want to do something with them, but I'm not quite sure what, yet.

On the knitting front, not much has happened.... although I have completed two more squares, I just have not had time to photograph them to show you, but I will do soon.

Well, I must dash, Bean is calling ........

Knit, knit, knitty knit!

Yaaaaaaaay!!!!

Who knew that hand knitting would become this addictive??????

Well, I have been doing my hand knitting in the evening whilst watching TV.... or is that concentrating on my knitting whilst the TV makes a noise in the background????  Hehehehehehe........

Do you remember this post?????

Well I've now completed ten squares and started number eleven...... do you want to see???

Here goes...........

I love the colours and the fact that the main stitches that I have used so far are knit and purl!!!!  I'd never really though of using them like I have..... but then ...... my hand knitting adventures have only ever led to garter stitch and stocking stitch and even then,  have been VERY limited, in both time and patience!!!

This project has become VERY ADDICTIVE!!!!  My hubby thinks I'm becoming a tad bit obsessed.... Shhhhhhh....... don't let on that I am ;-) ..........

..... I've got to go........ my knitting's calling.......... :-)

Experimentation

Hi.........

Because I was soooooo tied up last week, and I knew I wouldn't be able to concentrate on my usual projects, I decided to do some experimentation......

With flowers, twists and a dragonfly........

Now I know the picture is not that great, but that was due to there being toooooooo much light!  It has been very difficult these last few weeks to get decent light for photographing my creations..... it's either too bright or too dull!!

But as these are trial pieces, I knew you would all forgive me.  What do you think?

I also managed to do some paper cutting and some knitting in front of the TV, but more on those in separate posts!

I don't know about you, but I'm quite smitten with the dragonfly!  I will have to make some more and may even try writing out a pattern to share with you.

I will of course have to do some research into this pattern writing malarkey, as I have never written one before, and I have got into a bad habit of slipping into US and UK terminology as per pattern instructions that I have followed, and I don't get confused, as I just know what they are asking me to do...... so it may take some time.....

Until next time.............. keep creating!!
