A beautiful winter’s day

Well it’s a sunny 10 degree’s outside today! No torching today as even though the sun is shining, its still just a wee bit nippy outside. Instead, I’m hoping to get some sewing done. There is a nappy bag for us and a circle skirt for my mum to be made.

I also have knitting on the go as well. I’m trying to stick with it as knitting is damn well hard apparently. Give me one hook and I can crochet anything, put two needles in my hands and I cant even hold the silly things. I’m slowly overcoming this though. Slowly..

Baby Hats

I’ve made some baby hats up using my own crochet designs. They are suitable to fit newborns to roughly 6 months old. I will be making bigger ones to fit older children as well as booties and baby blankets.

Friendly Blue Tongue

So before we went to the city yesterday for the Bead Expo in Camberwell, we had to convince mr blue tongue that under the car was not a good spot to sit. This is our second blue tongue in our garden in the last couple of weeks. There is a baby one living in our vegie patch in the backyard.
