Wordless Wednesday

Hello 2012

Hello friends :-)

I hope your festive season was relaxing and full of pleasant surprises :-)

I'm about to head off for a camping trip with my 8 year old nephew at Wilsons Promontory for a week or so, which I'm really looking forward to. I hope the weather is kind to us!!

I hope to be doing some well earned relaxing while I'm there. Wandering around in the forest, floating around in the ocean, and not a lot else :-)

When I return from my little holiday I'll be adding some new knitting and crochet patterns!! Yes, that's right!

I've been working on a few new designs over the last couple of months, for various fingerless glove designs, gloves with fingers, kids tops, kids shorts, jewellery, toys, scarves, shawls/wraps, cowls, hats & even a ladies cardigan!

I had this crazy idea that I would try and write at least one new pattern every month this year. I'm not sure how I'll go, but I'm going to try my best and hopefully there will be a lot of fun things to make here on my blog :-)

Take care and I'll be back with a bunch of fun, new things in a few weeks :-)

Returned After a Little Break

Hello friends! I've missed you! I know, I know, it's been a long time since I updated my blog. I've been extremely busy (and most of it's been "good busy" :-)

I went away for a little holiday with one of my nephews, to Wilsons Promontory (in Victoria, Australia). We camped at the beach. Thankfully the weather was pretty good. It only rained a few times (yep, our tent leaked) I'm sure it would have been a funny sight seeing me in my leopard print pyjamas, in the pouring rain and howling wind, trying to fix our tent at 1am. Hehehe.

We did lots of swimming in the ocean, and the river. Archer, my nephew got bitten on the toes TWICE by bullants (ouch!!). We saw lots of extra hairy black possums, lots of beautiful birds (the Fairy Wrens are my favourite), a snake, lots of lizards, and lots of wombats!
In fact a wombat even broke into our tent! I was most unimpressed but Archer was thrilled (hehehe). I thought I had been so vigilant , going through all the pockets and bags, to make sure we hadn't accidentally left any food in our tent which might result in a wombat breaking in to snack on it... But I accidentally left an empty muesli bar wrapper in the tent and that's what he broke in for :-( Hehehe.

While I was away I got lots of ideas sketched in my book, and turned quite a few of those into reality in the form of more new laser cut jewellery!! So in the next few days and weeks you should be seeing some more new products landing in my Etsy store HERE (and some previews here on the blog :-)

Chat soon! xox
