Know what you mean Pam, it's spooky quiet.
I'm continuing with my shell blanket but the 2 balls of aran I bought seem to be thinner than the aran I started in so it looks a bit odd:(. Never mind, it's been good practice and will have to be a dog blanket - for a great dane!
Just working up to a trip to Iceland (the shop, not the country) and then will probably be MIA all day painting DS1s bedroom. Hope everyone has a good day x

Morning all,

Hope everyone is well.

Chalky - Wedding photo looks fab, all the girls look stunning, love the colour of the bridesmaid dresses. I love your hedgehogs and their names, have you named one Harvey? (thats my ds1's name.)

K2tog - I have been painting bathroom all day yesterday, what a chore! Hope it goes well for you.

See you all later:D

Chalky what are you doing with all your hedgehogs? I love the way you have buttons on the tags:D

Shelly How did your sale go? Did you sell your chicks and stuff?

I found this this morning. http://web.archive.org/web/20060216061956/irenecrafts.com/patterns/cradle_purse.htm
and http://www.beadedsocks.net/CradlePurse.html
I'm sure one of you clever hookers could adapt this to make it a little bigger so Shelly could use them. Waht size do you need Shelly?

Have just done Iceland - they are delivering later, perfect!
Onlygirl, I will be up a ladder (unsurprisingly) which I hate! Makes my leg muscles better though because I'm in a perpetual state of tension! Glad I'm not glossing Shez - hate that even more than sewing up :rotfl:
Love the name tags on the hedgehogs Chalky - you could've used them as placecards for the wedding!
Anyway, enough skivving. Best get to it.

Oh yes the easter sale i forgot all about that, We sold 25 chicks etc which was £25 for postage funds not bad but i wished we could of done better, I am hoping the christmas one will go better as last year i made tiny christmas stockings and they went like hot cakes,

Those cribs are so lovley i wish i could crochet, If anyone wants to make some i will need them to be about 12" long estimate

i love glossing as it makes so much difference to a room,

Thanks for those links craftylady, aren't they gorgeous?

Evening everybody!! It's still quiet on here isn't it. Perhaps everyone's out enjoying the weather. It's lovely here again tonight - sun is shining, but very windy.
It's been a good day today - my lovely son has managed to get a job after being unemployed since February - I'm really pleased. He's on a gap year at the moment so he needs to fill his time and earn some money.
Happy knitting everyone.
