Hiya,
Cold almost gone but was up coughing at 2am. Not fun at all!
Love the Attic 24 blankets nmm and have my eye on the CAL she is starting in January. Can I justify the pennies on the yarn pack - oh I think so!!!
Welcome Zannerrm - good to see new members as we have been a bit 'tumbleweed' this year. We love to see photos so do share your makes
More crocheting tonight I think. Looking forward to a lie in tomorrow. Was going to pick up DD from a school sleepover as DH is out with friends from 8am on a shoot. Luckily DDs friends mum is doing the pick up. Deep joy!!

Welcome Zannerrm, as coxy said it's been a bit quiet over the past year, I guess life gets in the way sometimes. I will try to post more often. I'm going to be working from home soon, so should have lots more free time

It's my birthday today, i've been given money but i really don't need anything just now, i was looking at some rainbow wool to make a cool dragon scale bag, so i might just buy that.

Happy Birthday nmm xx Hope you have a lovely day xx
The bag looks amazing - definitely treat yourself to that! Realised last night that I'd increased stitches on the second row of my blanket and it was going wrong so had to unravel and redo. Took a while but I'm now back to where I should be with the correct amount of stitches.
Up earlier than expected but had a good nights sleep. Lots of errands to run today but hoping to do another hour of crafting later. At a quiz night tonight which means missing the SCD final. No spoilers please as will stay up until midnight to watch on catch up!

Zannerrm

@nmm -- That's a very colorful scale bag :rotfl: like it!

Its made from self striping wool, so thankfully its not a million colour changes, that would drive me mad. I have finally washed my bauble wreath in the hope to mount it in the hoop tomorrow, at least its before xmas

I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas
I managed some quiet stitching time on Boxing Day when I finished Seasons in Chalk Christmas by Priscilla Blaine & Hands On Designs from the December 16 issue of Just Cross Stitch Magazine
Lots of white stitching on dark grey fabric and lots of Smyrna stitches as well. Very pleased with how it looks though
Happy new year to all
