a stitch in time....for 'christmas'

Now that the horror that is 'enrolment' at work has now finished, and I'm finally managing to get home at a sensible time (although last night was a bit of a nightmare....1hour 40mins to drive 13 miles!!!)...I've found some time to get some 'christmas' homemade gifts made.

Last year the family got a variety of oil on canvas portrait paintings.  I just don't have time for that this year...and I think they're getting fed up of trying to find wall space for the work I do!!!

So, this year, the girls of the family are getting bespoke, completely individual, no two alike....hand knitted scarfs!!! lol lucky them!!! 

Obviously, these are just little 'stocking' gifts...all are made from left over wool, so other than my love and time, they've cost nothing.

I hope they like them!





I've never been quite this organised before!!! I may even wrap them tomorrow (was supposed to be going out with some old work colleagues, but its just been cancelled) so I'll have some spare time!! all this and its still only the beginning of October.

Now I've got to source and plan a little pirate outfit for my godson/great nephew to wear at his 2nd birthday party next month.

S'all go creatively ...and I LOVE IT!!!!
