Oh Christmas Tree...

Sandra's helper's have been busy, I think we've topped last years :)

Mum & Me!

Very proud to have me and my mum's knits featured on our favourite wool sites blog! I am so glad she passed on her love of knitting and they really will be treasured forever!

Black Sheep is our favourite Knit & Stitch Show stall and the website is where I spend a lot of my lunch breaks, getting inspired!

If you have any knitted treasures you want to share please send them to Amy@Blacksheepwools.com

The Headphones

Possibly the most useful thing I have ever created! These are based on the 'Untangled' pattern from Ravelry and are amazing at preventing my headphones from becoming a frenzied mess in my handbag/pocket/bed!

Unfortunately after two years these headphones have finally started to give up the ghost, but that does mean I get to create a new funky pair :) pictures to follow ... 

My Logo

My lovely logo which now takes pride of place of my new fabric labels...

The name was a great idea from my brother and is based on "Let me be your fantasy" but incorporates my love of all things tea!

Lyndon Modelling...

Here is the lovely baby Lyndon modelling the outfit I made for him. It's so nice to see this on (now that it fits) and he seems to be enjoying it too... 

... even attempting rapper poses to go with his hat ... 

...Until the lack of 'afternoon nap' catches up with him causing the below reaction. His mother assures me it wasn't the knitwear! 

What a cutie!!

The Knit and Stitch Show 2012

Had such an amazing time at the Knit and Stitch show with my mum on Friday 12th October, as you can see from the picture above my rainbow stash is growing rapidly :)! It's such a beautiful and inspiring place and I came away raring to go with so many new ideas and desperate to knit all day long! Unfortunately, that isn't possible and I will have to settle for spending every spare minute I have on my craft, when I am not in or travelling to London! Though I like and generally enjoy my job, knitting and making things is my one true love and spending the day with so many like-minded people, some of whom are lucky enough to do this kind of thing for a living, was just fantastic.

I already can't wait for next year :)! But until then I have plenty to keep me busy - mainly baby clothes for some very special people, including a niece or nephew of my very own, which makes me incredibly happy!

Big and Little!

Finally finished the matching cardi's for my friends little girls, Molly who's 2 and a half and Maisie who was born on the 20th September weighing over 8lb (so unfortunately this probably won't fit for long)!

Now on to a present for the new baby Wingfield who is due this month :) xx
