Bonnet for a princess

Finished this little cutie and gave to a dear friend for her new arrival later in the year. I am hoping to do a nice matching cardigan for her, if time allows.

Frogging weekend

Well what can I say, after a busy weekend frogging back my beautiful sparkle mint cardigan (watch this space it will get finished 😊) I thought put it done, breath and start again on Monday. Yes I know the dreaded Monday but it had to be done.
So instead I did a second Lily's eyelet cardigan and the smiley buttons made it a sunny weekend.

More mint sparkle for May

Worked on this lovely new pattern over the Bank Holiday here in the UK. It is knitting up so nice I think I will be knitting myself a nice top for a treat.
Watch this space for the finished cardigan.
Update to say I played yarn chicken with this design and lost, oops. Not to worry it is working out to be a beautiful short sleeve cardigan. Picture coming soon.

Bit of Mint sparkle for summer

Loved working with this sparkle yarn, it knitted up so nice. I must admit I am a fan of James c, Brett yarn, it seems to wash well for little ones. This colour was the mint shimmer.

Summer is on its way.

Sunny lemon looks so springtime.

The Fluffy hat I did last week in a lovely lemon spring colour. It is surprising how different the same pattern can look in different yarns don't you think?

A nice little treat for an Easter Baby

I love the fluffy yarn on this sweet little baby hat, really fun knit for an Easter baby to wear.

Then you can always change the fluffy yarn to a plain yarn in any colour to wear all year round.

Little cardigan finished to match the baby hat

I really enjoyed knitting this little one, so much so I did a second one in shades of coral for a special little girl. Very pleased to say she loved it so much she did not want to take it off.
