... I haven't been doing a lot of crafting. Or blogging for that matter. But really the 2 go hand in hand I suppose. So here is a little round up of the little crafting that's been going on.
My dropped stitch vest from the first SnB book has been put to the side while I re-knit a couple of inches. Much to the amusement of the monthly winos I completely misjudged my gauge, dropped the stitches in the final row for the pattern and nearly ended up with a wrap-a-round skirt. So I am going to have to do a bit of re-calcs of the pattern to finish this beauty.
I am quite pleased to have finished my xmas craft-swap decoration though - going to get them in the post tomorrow. I've already received 2 decorations - I love how crafty people can be, coming up with these cool ideas and then sharing them with a few others. Just cool. And it comes in the post!I also bought the first issue of a new crafting NZ magazine "Extra Curricular" from Toggle - great little mag with interviews of crafters and artists. Cute little mag!
And another baby knit for a newborn - little boy called Alec. Yip, my old faithful Debbie Bliss raglan sleeve. Can you believe another 3 babies turned up as well? I'm thinking maybe some hats without a jumper!!
I'm really liking a little felt at the moment - a bit of stitching, a couple of buttons and a pair of nail scissors - easy craft!
