Bolero

Finally I've finished it! I started just before Christmas!!! That'll teach me for having too many things on the go! Not overly happy how the wool has knitted up, i used Wendy Peter Pan DK "moondust". Will post a pic of her in it when she isn't in such a grump!!! Think i might make the long sleeved version of this bolero when i've got to the end of my pile! Not sure which colour to use yet, maybe use up some of my stash!

I cast on William's Hat last night, only done a couple of lines, but they knit up pretty quick. I was pretty surprised at how fluffy the wool is, but it should be ok. If not it'll be a good Hat for Teddy, and i'll have to get some different wool and make another 


Here's another thing i've been doing since just after Christmas,

 I find i need at least a good hour to sit down and not get interrupted by the kiddies, which is almost impossible these days. And after dinner i just don't feel like doing it, anyway, i normally knit in Summer and Cross stitch in Winter so hopefully i'll get my bug back!


I've also got this to finish aswell,
 it's become a  back project, its SOOOO boring to do, but i know William and Claudia will love it once its done and hanging in their bedroom... it looks rather simple at the moment, but theres alot of backstitch to do!

William and I Cooked up a batch of Cookies yesterday, just had to share this pic




So many things to do and not enough time.
