Well Here I Am....

......so where do I start??
Since my last post Lana turned eleven and Little Man turned one ... how did that happen??
He's now walking so that means only one thing...... he's into everything!

One of the reasons I've been quiet on here is because I've been busy knitting/crocheting up a storm ready for Christmas, I was determined all the kids would have at least one handmade item under the tree this year.

 Made Lana a ear-warmer for Christmas, the colours were her choice 




An old man cardi for my little man


also made a scarf for Alfie and a sleeveless cardi for Isla that I must get a picture of.

I also finally finished Islas rainbow blanket




BUT the main reason I've been quiet is because......



....this mommas expecting again!!
Took us a while to get our head round to that news, let me tell ya.
As well as bringing a gorgeous Cath Kidston bag back from Cornwall, we brought another souvenir back....... a little girl due 4th April.

So I think thats a good enough excuse to buy lovely yarn and get my knit on don't you??



I've already finished a few items minus adding buttons but the above yarn (Rowan Handknit Cotton) is for a squidgy, cuddly garter stripe blanket I'm gonna start this weekend :-)

Have a great weekend
TTFN
