Ta-dah.....Butterfly Style.....

All done...  We are calling it Butterfly....

Because of the buttons of course .......

and well Silver Cardigan does not quite sound right with our colour choice now does it? The original however did.   I used Moda Vera Pure Wool in 8ply and 4mm needles. The pattern states it is to fit 12 months but Little Miss is 4 so I would probably use smaller needles and thinner yarn to fit a 12 month old. Easy pattern to follow and a fairly quick knit. A pleasure all round.

Little Miss likes it very much. It was part of her birthday gift package yesterday... She is 4 now and very proud to say so too.

Such a cutie pie.......loves to pose for the camera...... I did point out that I could not see her jacket in this one but she insisted....

Thats a bit better.....

She also received that last poncho I made....

And little Winifred which she posed for ages ago but only got to take home yesterday...

Lucky for us she loves clothes so there was no where are my toys questions at all.  She also got some frangipani hair ties and a pretty green dress but they were not handmade so don't make the blog. :-)

Have a wonderful day all. Peace, Love and Light. xoxox

Busy Busy Me

I have once again been away from blogland and have not had time to post or catch up with my favourite blogs lately. We are undertaking a quite large renovation on the upstairs of our home which has meant that I have had to move out of my craft room, so that we can move all those residing upstairs, down.  A huge job so far and no where near completion. My room is almost empty and in the process I have sorted and donated quite a bit of crafty stuff and books to a local charity drive that is coming up soon.

I have been picking up my knitting, crochet and cross stitch projects with less regularity and its driving my sense of self a little batty. It could be the fact that my house which was sorted into some sort of normality is now once again chaotic. Yep it could be that. Lets just say I am a little frazzled.

We sent the youngest boy off to high school this year. Our homeschooling days are over for now. One would think I would have finally been able to immerse myself in my crafty pursuits but well, we will see.

Despite all the chaos, I did unearth several unfinished projects and I managed to finish this one for my niece. Her birthday is coming up soon so I have been hoping to finish a few homemade gifts as she has way too many toys already. I will stop rambling now and present my little ta-dah....

Peace out. Hope you are all blissfully happy and healthy right now. Hugs xoxox
