I miss knitting! During the summer I fall slave to the idea that if I sit inside I am wasting the good weather. So now, I am very much looking forward to the long dark cold evenings of winter, because for some reason when the summer approaches...the evenings become longer and time spent at home becomes less and less...and so my knitting is left to gather dust in the corner. Already there is a nip in the air, and I can feel myself full of anticipation for the nights spent in front of a roaring fire curled up with my fiance and our little dog, blanket thrown over us and knitting in hand! Poor Bertie is stuffed half made in my knitting bag behind the couch! I vow to take him out soon and finish him off!
So as I have mentioned on countless occasions, I am getting married and that is the reason for knitting all the stuffed toys in the past number of months!! My next project is to knit lots of booties and sell them at Christmas craft fairs starting in November. As many of you know..weddings are expensive..I am hoping to sell some booties and make a little extra cash to help us on our way! I will post pictures of my booties as I make them on my blog and anybody that wishes to buy them before they hit the stalls please feel free to drop me a comment!!
Hoping to post pictures of Bertie soon! It is my fiance's stag weekend and he is heading off to Derry with the lads for the weekend giving me plenty of time to catch up on some baking, knitting pampering and hanging out with my girlies!! =D
Happy Knitting and Crafting
Helena =D
