Mii's Travelling Pattern - Finished!

Hello hello!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend, mine is cold, but good :)

So today I finished the travelling pattern which arrived to me from Steph, I decided on the "then" pattern of the two choices.


Ribbon Detail
Crazy Backing Fabric!















This of course now means the pattern is looking for a new home, if you wish to be the next one then you must (stolen from Mii's blog!):

1/ Be a serious stitcher and actually stitch one of the pattern and then pass it on,
2/ Be prepared to post the pattern anywhere in the world,
3/ Stitch the pattern in timely fashion (2 weeks maximum),
4/ Have an active blog to show us your work & organize a draw for the next stitcher
5/ and finally each stitcher to email me so that I can keep track of the chart

So if that sounds like you then please leave a "me please!" on this post. I will pick the next stitcher in a weeks time (the 16th). So good luck everyone!

This week we also managed to finally get round to getting a frame for Darth and hung in our Geek Room. Hurrah :)


Until next time, happy stitching!

Knitting Finish and Goodies in the Mail :)

Good Evening!

A mid week (ish) post - I am really spoiling you :D hehe

So after I completed part two of Holly and Hearts I wondered what to do next, then on Sunday as I was having a big clear out I came across some scarf yarn I bought a while ago that I forgot I had!

So Sunday night I made a start and managed to get it finished and washed last night. I figured it would look great with my new winter coat which is red, so I thought a black scarf with a little bit of sparkle will look lovely.


You can't see the sparkle so well in the picture sadly...at least I will be warm when waiting at the bus stop in the morning - last two mornings we have had frost!

After work yesterday when I got home I had a package waiting for me and I couldn't figure out what it could be?? It was from the lovely Steph at Show and Tell! I was the lucky one chosen for a travelling pattern but she kindly included lots of goodies for me too :) Thanks Steph! :D


Look at this! How cute! Now I just have to find somewhere for it to live out of furry paws reach :)


I made a small start on the travelling pattern also, I chose the "Then" version, shouldn't take too long so keep an eye out as it will be looking for a new home soon! :)

Excuse the shadow!
Valma, I have not forgotten you, the travelling pattern will be on its way as soon as I make it up to the post office on my lunch break at work, fingers crossed the next day or so!

Until next time!
