Shorts bug

I recently took part in a shorts swap and I've now got the urge to make lots of shorts for my girls.

I've got a lovely pattern to make my eldest a set with top and shorts, I've ordered some very special fabric to make them for her.

In the meantime I knocked these up for my youngest and I'll try work out a top to match too.

WIP Wednesdays

 


I'm currently working on the Eloise Eyelet Cardi for my youngest daughter. I'm quite slow at knitting so don't expect this to be much bigger by next Wednesday...haha.




I'm also in the process of making 2 pairs of shorts for a swap, but I can post them here right now.

What could be better. A good book and some knitting.

Bean bags!!!

My friends little girl turned 3yrs on Wednesday and we've been invited to her Birthday party tomorrow so I made her some bean bags as a gift. Rheya loves them, so hopefully the Birthday girl will too.

In Threes cardigan: The finishing touches

Some handmade buttons I'd ordered from Smiggles arrived today :D So I sewed one set onto the cardigan I made Anara a while ago...it's now complete :D





Ooh and look at the other buttons I got. I have no idea what to do with them, I just loved them. I'm thinking of putting them on a bag...

Craft Apron

Phew! I finished Abigail's Birthday present (Abigail is Rheya's best friend at school) Rheya's going the Yorkshire Wildlife Park with Abigail and her Mum to celebrate.

Peg apron

It's my friends's Birthday on Saturday so I've made her a peg apron (she picked out the pattern before you judge...lol) I need to make myself one of these, it's so useful!
