I'll quickly show some photos of the holiday then get on with the stitching/goodies updates...

While on holiday I got a tiny new start, its not much and I'm not telling you what it is yet :D hehe. But I want to get Darth Finished and another project started soon so it will be going away again for a while.
Holiday Start |
Each set came with a pattern book, and as I say I have ordered some before so I now have three extra books. Would anyone like one? If so state in a comment below you would and if there is more than three of you I will do a draw, I will keep it open until next Sunday morning (22nd). Just to make it clear, this is for the book, NOT the wool - that's all mine *evil laugh*
Today in the mail this arrived! The first part of the Lizzie*Kate Mystery Christmas SAL! I think I am going to start tomorrow (ssssh don't tell the other half!) and make Sunday my SAL Sunday from now on. I want to keep up with this one (famous last words!).

Would love a chance to win one of the patterns - thank you.
It was my first time there, and I really enjoyed it, I would go again.
DeleteI have no idea what I am going to make yet, I need to practice my knitting more first, but it will probably be one of the patterns from the book.

Beautiful pictures Emma and that yarn is to die for, for sure. Beautiful colors. Keep us updated with lots of pictures as you work with it. I found a lovely SAL online just the other day and plan on starting it right away. (Even though I already have two other pieces going) If you're participating in a SAL though, you have to work along with everyone else right?
