Snail Mail Invite


Just been surfing the blogosphere again, I know i must get a life..... :/ but actually I think I have discovered something that will bring a little happiness to all on an American blog. A Penpal project lets get one going here in Britain. Penpals, snail mail revival, everyone loves to receive something exciting, and colourful in the post! BROWN WINDOWED ENVELOPES DEFINITELY OUT! If you are interested in beginning a postal adventure leave a comment with your email or contact anyone who has left a message. Image here is from http://lobsterandswan.blogspot.com/2009/07/tied-with-string.html and is just gorgeous. All this could make for some really fun swaps too! :)

Humbug Cushion




Just finished my humbug cushion which I'm delighted with!!! Cost me £3.67 to make, love a bargain :D The pattern was so simple and I've really got the knitting bug again.

Knitting a Cushion Cover



With the degree over I needed an project to channel allllll my creative essence into. I love knitting, and fancied some knitted cushion covers. Got some lovely cerise wool and here's the beginnings :D I'm a bit of a novice knitter so nothing too technical, pattern came from a book called home by Debbie Bliss (978 0091 903 596) There are some lovely little projects in there and they are all quite contemporary in look.

I have knitted five little bobble hats for the innocent smoothie Big Knit 2009. I wanted to remember those who have served in our armed forces but find themselves having to choose between keeping warm or eating, as so many of our elderly population do.
