Had a busy afternoon at a birthday party for one of Munchkins’ classmates. Both had a fab time, bouncing on the castle and running around outside. Thankfully the rain held off.

I managed extend the strap on the bag I knitted and crocheted, much better.

I will be making another one for a friend as soon as I get the yarn next week. Cannae wait!

Bag

I’ve been doing reasonably well on a new stitch, mose, love it. Glad I finally started this bag pattern, though I don’t seem to be getting on with stocking stitch still. So I decided to go with my favourite crochet stitch, Tunisian, for the base, sides and handle.

Finally got a new IPad 2. Been resisting for ages, but glad I got it.

Lucy has three days off school due to staff training. Miranda has a cough and it’s been making her throat sore, but otherwise doing well, so back to school for her tomorrow.

Gonna make a brew and watch NCIS….

Yup, I am finally getting the handĀ  of this knitting lark, and have finished two scarves! And on the third!

Although, I confess, I rather miss ma crochet hook….

My Cheeky Monkey!

Waiting at school this morning, got my cheeky monkey being very cheeky while having a pic taken.

…. In the gardens across theĀ  road from school, as I’m early. I’m glad I have reactions though! Think I’ll read a bit of Agatha Christie in the Kindle…..

Love it!

Storytime

Lucy was telling a fab story by herself, from her own imagination, with characters from the Wii Music game and a rainbow from her Magic Rainbow books!!

You go girl! Love hearing my Angel chat away.

Yarn order has arrived, so I can get back to Munchkins’ blanket. Whoop!!

Little section of white has tamed marbled effect, I do love how this little blanket is panning out.

I wonder if this will be alright for Mya….

Marbled blanket…

I’m testing this marbly yarn I got a while ago on a baby blanket, though I think I will section it a little with some white yarn to calm it down a bit, seems a little too much on it’s own. Looking good though…..
