What's in my knitting basket...


At the moment I seem to have a basket ,well not really a basket because there is too many and some are bulky but I have a lot of things I working on...

Now these arnt your normal UFO's they arnt just sitting there forgotten no I go between them all doing a bit on this one and then a bit on that ...

The problem is I loose interest fast but on these I cant because I need a couple for gifts...see this was another bright idea I had when I decided to give more handmade gifts rather than just buying a gift...

So these are what I am supposed to be doing....

Jaxon's blanket.


I love this blanket well I will when its finished I think I need about 120 squares or more.I have 25...

Annaliese's Blanket.

This is one of my favourite blankets to make.It is a large circular rug and this time I'm doing it in variegated cotton...I have till June to get this finished...

White Baby Blanket.


Another fave of mine I use two different types of wool and crotchet them together with a number 10 hook. I better get a hurry on as this one is for Kevin's son Karl and his wife as they are expecting their first baby.

Embroidered Cushion


I have an embroidered doiley which I really like but didn't want to use it as a doiley.So I cut it in half wrote a little verse on it and I am starting to stitch over the words when this is finished I am going to sew it on a cushion which I have to make also...I have ordered off Etsy some vintage sheets fat quarters.So that is what the backing will be...Luckily I have awhile for this one to be completed  well till July I just have to get the others finished first....

Penguin Jumpers...


I don't have a deadline for this but I would like to do a few so I better get cracking...

So that's it ....like I know its not impossible to do but I keep doing other bits and then I feel guilty about not having touch my other bits...so I'm off now to  do a bit of Oh gee I don't know....

  1. Very clever. I have to finish one before I start on another. I do get very bored though.
