Year of Projects Update

Since the wedding (posted here) last weekend, I have not had much time to take pictures this week, so this post is all to do with the list!!  In summary, the crocodile scarf is nearly finished and I have finished one of the Amy Miller cowls.  The one skein MKAL is finished - but think it is supposed to be a cloth - in which case the yarn is completely wrong - I have decided, therefore, to get more yarn and turn it into a scarf for my dad!
So, here is the list so far.
Firstly, gifts for Christmas

For Daniel and Lily -  a toy- ?dragon and rabbit using stash yarn

For the sisters in law - wristwarmers - finished 14/08/13 

For my mum and brother - pot covers and mug hug 

For Thomas and Luke - crocodile scarf  - one nearly finished

For my mum and mil - dishcloths and bag - finished 3 cloths and starting KAL for 12 on the 1st October

Then, there's all the projects just for me

• Finish tote bag  - hurrah - finished 04/07

Hat for me - finished 09/08/13

Socks for me - definitely using my A Stash Addict yarn

Placemats - in time for Christmas I hope!

MKAL with Amy Miller group - start 01/09/13 - completed 1 cowl - 3 more to go

So thats all from me this week.  Hopefully, I will be able to do more this week and will post pictures next Sunday.

Hope you all have a great week.

My Brothers Wedding

Saturday 21st finally came and the cake was successfully transported to Somerset by car and assembled Saturday morning.

Very happy with it if I say so myself!!

The boys got very bored after the wedding and didn't have much patience for the photos after that!

It was lovely though to see all the family including my aunt and cousin that we haven't seen for ages.  The ceremony was great, dinner (roast beef) was lovely and the disco was perfect - a brilliant day with the boys behaving themselves right through to falling asleep on the chairs in the hall!

Year of Projects update - lots of WIP

Short and sweet today as I have no FO but lots of WIP!!

Firstly, the Amy Miller KAL is coming along nicely - although the third one is due out today and I have yet to finish the first!!

 The Crocodile scarf is also coming along - I have completed the 20 ridges and now am on to the decreases.

I have also started a KAL with one skein on ravelry - another mystery KAL - this one is only just started and as usual I have no idea what it is!!










The roses are completed but they are packed away for next week so I can't take a pic. Am making the cakes today and icing them in the week so will take a finished pic next week - crossed fingers!

Hope every one has a lovely week - will be at the wedding next week so unlikely to be able to check in!!
