    Morning All - just!
    Not much of an update from me I'm afraid. Have been messing about with sleeping bags and not having much success. Mind you the crochet one would have been OK if I wasn't such a muppet - carrying on for most of the 12 " the pattern states was ridiculous. I need to unravel it but it will be a pain as I had started bordering it in the vain hope it might somehow salvage it:rotfl:
    I'm doing a square jumper at the mo just for a change and to try and get into the swing of knitting again but when that is finished I will try a sleeping bag again, a kniited one from Elaine's pattern and a crochet one but stopping waaaay before the pattern says to!
    UPDATE

    2 BUNTINGS - sig correct
    Hope everyone has a good day x

    Wool sounds lovely Shelly, too bad I already have 700g of 4ply I keep avoiding :D

    Tried my hand at crochet beanie hats for the first time. I'd done granny squares when I was a little girl, but nothing more than that. Followed a pattern from YT, and it was nice but would fit a normal sized baby. Amended size for the second one, but that turned out a little too small. Aiming for 'just right' on the 3rd one just like Goldilocks :rotfl:.

    Also knitted my first hooded wrap, and crotched a border.

    Have a huge amount of stuff to send, but couldn't get out as mam has been poorly for a few days. I'm thinking I'll knit a few more bits, and they should fit nicely into a cardboard box for DHL to pick up. That will turn out a lot less expensive to send, and will save me putting my back out on the way to the post office.

    Have a great holiday weekend everyone

    Hi Shelley
    I know that I haven't been on here for a while but the needles are still hot making little gowns like the one I sent you, I would love your 4ply if you haven't already given it away I am one of those odd people who love knitting in 3 and 4ply
    Thanks Lucie
