This is the Christmas ornament so far - had to add some red thread to it but think it will be ok once backstitch and putting together is done

I thought your ornament was going to be a reindeer head made from a square of plastic canvas. I have seen some made a bit like this- but I think they had felt antlers,

only difference- one has twisty antlers, one has a bobble nose!

oh and a cute little fox head

@ katiehound - they look cute  
I have a confession to make lol - i have only done a tiny bit more. I sort of had a want to do some knitting as it is getting colder and I need a cardi/jacket - my old one is several years old and has gone a bit bobbly with all the washes. My saving grace is I got the wool and pattern as a present - I am a lucky girl so technically it suddenly became part of my stash (my excuse) so I am still busting it! I like making my own as can customise as I am small so need to alter arms etc but i like a longer snuggle type. 
The yarn is quite silky and has a really nice feel to it so it is a pleasure to knit which is a bonus though can split if not careful so need to keep an eye on it. Would not like to unpick.

All is going well medically and I am very grateful for how little it is impacting me - still walk child to school some distance and do everything fun and necessary. Am not being silly and everyone happy with everything so one happy bunny. Cold cap good too  

hope everyone is ok and life’s not too stressful Fed up with the rain though!!!

Hello all! Very little to report on the crafting front this summer- plenty of gardening instead.

I've made 4 cards today though- 2 cards needed for this week, and 2 Christmas cards. I have left some odds and ends on my desk ready to pick up- I can make another almost identical card to one of the birthday cards, so will make that and get a few more bits of scrap used up.

Now up to 101/200

A bit boo hiss at the moment as immune system lower than they want so bit stressy - I actually feel fine and happy and apparently look well! (I think i am just back to front )

on a good crafty note I am now on the last sleeve knitting then all will be left is putting together, pocket tops and border - feeling very pleased with myself

Hope everyone has a good day
