Teabag ladybirds

I made this today. It has scanned rather pale. I haven't decided what colour to mat it onto yet. I like teabag folding but I'll have to find a better glue than a gunged up stick. I have seen a lady on create and craft using a glue that is just like a biro. I will have to investigate.

needle quiz

You are pink aluminum.
Retro, straightforward and fun, you love classic
things. If they're 99 cents at Goodwill all the
better! You are moved by striking colors and
tasty morsels, and you like a stitch-n-bitch
session in the sun. Just remember, while
you're being kitschy cool, don't get too cold.
Ice cubes are best kept in your cocktails,
baby!

Knitting progress

Finally made up my lilac jumper. I finished it at the end of Summer but never stitched it up.

Here is a close up of the stitch pattern.

Also finished the body of my "make it up as you go" fairisle. It is a funny shape at the moment because I have not cut the arm, front or neck steeks. I was raring to go on picking up and knitting the sleeves until I realised I didn't have the right size circular. I can't get to a shop until Tuesday.

Heysham Churchyard

Spring has sprung at Heysham.

I taught my Daughter how to do Iris folding today. I showed her an example, and like most people who see iris folding for the first time she said "I'll never be able to do that, it looks way too hard". Once I showed her I couldn't cut the apertures fast enough.

Progress to armhole steeks

Abalone

Wendy has finished knitting Abalone,it's lovely. She seemed to finish it very quickly. Can't wait to see what she starts next.

Knitted Heart

Not quite sure what you'd use this for, a coaster maybe or a pot holder, but it's a novel Valentine idea, a Knitted Heart

New Fair Isle band

I've been making this up as I go along. It started off based on a colour your own Philosophers wools design but I have been adding my own bands and colours as I go along.

Zillions of diets

My goodness, I knew there were lots of "diets" out there and thought I had heard of most of them. This site Weight Loss Truth - Chase Freedom Diet Reviews and Information reviews at least 300 diet programes. Not that I am going on one...been there, done that, worn the T shirt that grows larger every time.
