Getting the hang of this now

This is a project I am working on at the moment. It's a cushion cover made with colinette yarn from one of their kits. It's been fun to work on and I'm hoping to finish it soon. It's advanced considerably since this picture was taken so I'm hoping to post a finished piccie soon.




Traditionally, I always buy myself the Woman's Weekly christmas craft and cooking magazine every year as I love to sit down and browse. I do actually make things out of these magazines too but I just love soaking up the atmosphere of christmas with a mug of hot chocolate and a cosy seat by the fire.




Ah, this was a find from ebay and it is full of some lovely patterns that I have been making. I'm working on the loopy christmas tree, almost obscured by the glare from the camera flash. When it finally gets finished I shall post a picture.




Yeay!!! The christmas decoration I started and actually finished. This was an angel from a knitting kit I found at Hobbycraft - reduced so they were virtually giving them away. This didn't take long to make at all and looks really sweet. They come in three sizes so hopefully I shall have its big brothers finished by next December.




My son Will was Henry VIII in a school assembly so I had to make him a costume. No easy task I don't mind telling you. The bit on top is the hat and he could wear this over his school uniform quite easily which made getting changed easier for him.
