Giveaway Prize Update

Soz about the dark picture, taken at night, gotta strike while the iron's hot!

I'm going to draw giveaway on Friday 2nd July, so you still have to time for a funny caption! I'm giving away this gorgeous Chat Botte French Yarn, in a very sublime grey tone, along with some vintage tortoise shell needles, some vintage ric-rac and buttons, along with Golden Hands Double Issue.

Having this giveaway has reconfirmed that there are some very funny women in blogland!

Giveaway Time!

This image is from Golden Hands Knitting, Dressmaking & Needlecraft Guide, Double Issue Parts 1 and 2. To win this great book and some other habby stuff, which I shall bundle up, think of a caption for the above picture. Best caption will be published here on on my blog!

winter is upon us!

Time for tweed skirts and boots!

I made this skirt for Little P, pretty basic pattern, with a couple of strips from the scraps pile sewn around, this one was an experiment to see how it would look, and I'm happy with the result, but think I'd prefer it with a few more strips around the hem.

I do like winter ... at first, but am prone to bouts of whinging towards the end .... as I do in summer ... only it's probably worse in summer, definitely like the in between seasons the most!
