Knit one
She is actually interested in knitting! Well, they end up more like drum sticks with the yarn in a massive tangle, but she’s having fun all the same.
Purl one
And frog!
She says she’s making socks. I’ll let you know when they’re finished!
Happy Christmas all.
I had them hanging around for ages……..
Tried to get them on many times………
Threatened to give them to one of her friends……..
And, lo, she put them on and wore them, for a whole day! Hurrah!
Here they are dancing with her new jeans. Levis - just like Daddy’s!
This one has been doing the rounds for a while. Here’s some stuff about me in the absence of actual craft content! As I’m an Australian living in Britain, it’s US biased.
