A few weeks of Crazy

Oh where the hell to start with my post, the first bit of Crazy news of which i can’t divulge too much due to work policy but i’ve designed a garment for a Sublime book and got it accepted by the head designer how cool it that. I will be able to tell you more once it’s out on the shelves which is quite a while from now but it still ace to be able to tell you all I’ve done a design for such a great company. It’s so exciting I’m most excited just to see it knit up.

Second piece of crazy news I’m going in order here because it makes sense to me. Mine and Pete’s friend Leigh and his missus Amanda have just had a beautiful baby girl which is brilliant news which means silly auntie Nessa is going baby cardigan crazy and is starting a new one for the little one tonight while watching the television. I’m also making the sweetheart a little blanket that can get bigger as she does.

I’d started this little blanket after I’d started doing one of my own which is growing to be quite sizable, it’s made only using Sublime DK yarns which i buy from work and have been saving since i started.

This one is mine, I’m using every colour i can get my hands on. It’s growing so much that at some point soon I’ll need more than one ball to get round but i love it so much, this blanket will be a center piece of the living room resting over the sofa i believe or on the bed.

Third BIG News is me and Pete are engaged which happen on Monday afternoon at home in our living room, there’s no plans of getting married just yet but we are going out for a meal with the family to celebrate and we will have to start saving soon enough.

I have also finished a beautiful Cardigan for a Insha, pete’s cousin’s daughter that i love, it’s actually a Sirdar tiny tot’s pattern but i used baby bamboo which is lovely and soft and the pattern looks super in this yarn.

 These past few weeks have been very busy but great. I’ll keep you posted
