can someone point me in the direction of the bunting pattern i saw it last week as i know i asked if they needed lining. but i'd run out of printer ink. ive got ink and now i cant find the pattern.

Hi Mrs Moneypenny - here's the link to the bunting pattern http://www.touchinglittlelives.org/knitbunting.html

Shelley says they don't need lining and she has plenty of ribbons, so you can just send the bunting itself.

Hello everyone
Can I say a huge thank you to you all. I have had my needles clicking and mamnaged this so far which I am chuffed with as it was a pattern from the internet as I only had premmie patterns with me. Its unusual as it starts from the neck and ends at the bottom with no seams apart from the underarms so it wil be sift to lie in.I have posted a photo and will look forward to seeing the results of the "Chalky challenge !!!!"

Wow, Chalky, they are beautiful. I love the wool you have used. Well done! I have made a note and will add them when I update first thing tomorrow morning.

Shazrobo sorry to hear you aren't feeling so good. I have 2 boys too but younger than yours - they must keep you busy! My youngest (aged 3) was moving 2 toy rockets in his hands the other day and announced "I knitting!". Perhaps he will when he is a bit more trustworthy with pointy things! Hope you're feeling better soon.
Chalky, would love to help but fraid my knitting isn't up to it yet. Good luck, it looks like you're getting lots of response which is great. Best wishes to the little one.

thanks kathy, and k2tog, for your good wishes, feeling bit better today, and have managed to knit 2 baby hats. both my sons have special needs, and can be very tiring at times, love em to bits tho, and wouldnt change them

Good morning everyone - as you can see, I'm up early again! This is definitely the best time for me to update because it's lovely and quiet here first thing in the morning. I've had my second cuppa so I'm raring to go!


Shazrobo - I'm pleased you're feeling a bit better. It must be great to have twins, but exhausting as well, even more so with special needs. I bet they're both lovely lads!

Chalky - I've just had another look at your photo and noticed the lovely buttons! They're really cute! I've nearly finished the cardi for your appeal.

Shez - first parcel ready for posting back to you, and the second one has been opened and put ready for 'eyeing' and sewing up! It's taken longer than I expected because things kept getting in the way (like boring old housework, yawn), and I've also been knitting a cardi for Chalky's appeal (NOT boring!) which I hope to get finished today.

I hope everyone has a good day.

Kathy
