Fingerless gloves for him indoors (which are actually still a ball of wool and not knitted but I’m going to wrap the ball with a promise)

I’ll post some pics of my efforts when I get them uploaded onto the puter.

Yes it’s only 10 days to Christmas and yes I spent today cutting out stencils and then stenciling 5 t shirts. They look pretty good even if I do say so myself ;) If the family members who are getting them don’t like them I think I’ll ask for them back cos me and the kids love them :D

Aaaahhhhh! Ok I hereby pledge that tomorrow I’m printing out the pictures, finding my craft knife, sorting out the fabric paints and getting at least one t shirt printed.

Yep quell surprise another flipping scarf! This one is for a good friend. We don’t normally do Christmas present swaps but she always buys my kids presents and this year I want to give her a nice surprise. She’s often commented on the kids funky scarves – so now there is one all done just for her ;)

If you are don’t read on lol

Last night I happened across some online patterns for dishcloths. I don’t have any dishcloth yarn/wool whatever it’s called so i just used some old wool that I had and knitted up this one
It’s cute and a great idea. Everyone has to wash dishes right? But where can I find dishcloth yarn?

last night and started work straight away on a present for a dear friend of mine. We dont’ usually swap Xmas presents but she always gets my kids something and she’s been a good mate to me and I know she had her eye on the kids scarfs last time she saw them. So I’m going to treat her to one of her own ;)

When I was down in Wales last month my big brother saw me knitting my girls halloween scarves (I’ll post pics of them when I work out how to use the new camera) and he said Hmmm I’d like a scarf to keep me warm on my bike. Ding!! One present for big bruv sorted. I have nearly finished knitting him a big chunky scarf. Sorted :D

oh boy, think I need to either give up sleeping or house cleaning to find those exra few hours. Hmmm which shall I chose? :D

I’m getting a calous (I can’t spell it) on my finger from all this knitting but I’ve got 4 presents sorted now. How cool is that? :D
