Catching Up

I'm now a Mrs! Have been for the past 6 and a half weeks actually - can't say being married is much different to us just living together. Just has more paperwork to fill in to get my name changed over on everything!

Here's us on our wedding day - me, DH and my cunningly hidden bump :-) We had a wonderful day, sunshine, great relaxed company, yummy food and the best hotel suite ever!



We jetted off for our honeymoon a couple of days later and spent a lovely week mostly eating and sunbathing - I did take the opportunity to do some KIP-ing (Knitting in Public) by the pool. Didn't get any comments just a few looks and I'm now a bit closer to finally finishing those socks I promised DH!



With Bean's arrival less than 10 weeks away now I'm frantically trying to finish the blanket I started about 5 months ago - not much more to do, and will put the finished pics up here soon.

My biggest news and my proudest moment in my knitting life so far is that my yarns have been featured and given away in Let's Knit magazine this month. I'm a published artist!

I was dyeing more yarns yesterday and will have some new one's to put up in the shop over the next week.

Until the next time.......

Happy New Year!

Goodness me! I can't believe its been that long since I last posted on here. I've had so much going on - here's one of the reasons...


This is Bean at almost 13 weeks......



....and this.....



... is Bean on Monday at 21 weeks and 5 days! We found out we're having a little girl :-)

So I've been dyeing lots of pink wool to celebrate! and lots of other colours too - they're drying as I type and will be up in the shop in the next few days and weeks.

**The shop will be shut between Thursday 24th January and will re-open on Friday 8th February when I will send out orders and deal with queries**

We're getting married next week and then are off for a week of relaxing in the sun - its all go for me this year!
