This was something I had wanted to do for a long time. The wool is home spun and dyed, to match my wallpaper 😉
The wool is a chunky weight, knit on 5mm needles so didn't take that long to do each sample square, then the black borders are crocheted before being sewn together. Finally I knit a 12cm border and sewed it in place.

I love this wee set! It knitted up really well and although it is a random dyed wool, it wasn't too difficult to match up the colours and stripes.

I've been knitting these hoodies through the year - they make excellent Christmas presents and are fab for a cold day on the beach too!

I always use machine washable yarns for kids knitting - what mum has time for hand-washing woollens?🙃

I've been busy sewing Christmas table runners. They are made from a heatproof quilted fabric with applique Christmas trees along the length.
I've made a few in traditional Christmas colours of reds and greens, and if I've time before Christmas I might do some gold and silver ones.
These runners are approximately 14" x 48" (average length of a dining table) and I might also make table mats to match them.

Miss Rabbit was jealous when she saw Tina the Cabbage Patch doll's new outfit!
Daisy drew round Miss Rabbit to give me an idea of the size, and asked for a pink and blue coat and hat . . .

Daisy wanted a new outfit for her Cabbage Patch Doll . I had some lovely lime green easycare wool left over from another project, and a quiet evening. . .
I didn't have a pattern, so just guesstimated and it turned out beautifully! I used a bit of moss stitch for variety. Daisy was thrilled🥰
