Latest Bag
Lucy Bag from Two Old Bags knitted in Texere Bella (undyed superbulky) on 10mm needles. When the knitting was finished, I attached the button and then bunged the bag and machine dye in the washing machine. It started off with blue and pink together but I ended up with a grotty pinky lilac colour so I put some jeans blue in and this is the result - not what I was expecting at all!
I will definitely make the bag again but using finer yarn!

Susie has found a new hiding place!
It was quite sunny on Sunday and I noticed Susie making a beeline for the little willow tree in the front garden - she stayed there for ages and was quite happy to have her picture taken!
Really spoilt!
My Ravelry swap partner, Martha (aka knittensill) has been really naughty and thoroughly spoilt me!
I got -
A gorgeous felted bowl
a recycled market bag
stitch markers
WPI kit
Circular needle size tags
Notebook
Namaste pouch to match my Malibu and clutch (ordered yesterday)
Chocolate
Dried Cherries
Cinnamon Hearts
Drink mixes
£ lovely patterns - bag, jacket (intriguing) and felted birdhouses!
Thank you sooo much Martha - you are wonderful!

Amber;s shrug - grrrrr!
I finished Amber's shrug last night and when she tried it on this morningm one sleeve is far too tight! I think it must be the side that I cast off but as the yarn is horribly fluffy, there is no chance I shall be able to undo it!
Managed to ease it a bit and now she's happier with it!
Thank you Continental Cat!
I got a lovely lacey shawl/scarf which I think Amber is after, a really sweet little rabbit pouch/bag which had the gorgeous Weleda Rose soap inside, a ball of Kureyon which I will keep for my Lizard Ridge, some lovely chocolate (Amber has already devoured the white and thoroughly enjoyed it) and some little mice for Susie.
I love everything CC - thank you sooooooo much!
