Don’t know about you, but I certainly am….thought I might try and hurry it along with a new theme…there are no flowers in my garden yet, so I will make do with a little blog garden for now.
What have I been up to since I last blogged? Let’s see…last UFO Tuesday saw some progress on [...]

Made a start on the tiny scarves – 22 knitted so far, 5 finished and tassled:
These are a lot of fun and a nice break in between stitching.

Or how about teeny tiny scarves – the Origins Ginger Knits Campaign will donate £1 to Shelter from the sale of every scarf-adorned bottle of Goinger Essence. Knitted in green, gold and red, these scarves take only 10 minutes or so to knit!
I am going to attempt to finish 100 of these also. My second goal for October.

I fancied a change from stitching this afternoon, so I knitted this little preemie-sized hat to send to World Of Charity Stitching:
Next is a little blue one, same pattern – available here. Easy to work on whilst I enjoy CSI….just how many episodes are there, seems like every day I see a new one!!

Well – yesterday I put the last backstitches in this butterfly for the SAL at Stitch Clubs – it should only have taken a day or so, and took about a week!! LOL – everything that could go wrong, did.
Despite my frustrations whilst stitching it, I am pleased with it now it’s finished. You can [...]
