I needed a little break.

Over the past month or so i needed a break from blogging all the time. Mainly so i could get on with some knitting. I’ve also been covering alot at work which has left me miserable and tired out on evenings. Then i’ve had horrible colds which have also done the same. The weather here in England, West Yorkshire hasn’t been the best to say it’s spring and the temperature keep raising and dropping and so i’ve been greeted alot by the cold monster over the last month a good fair share. Actually no it wasn’t a good FAIR share at all. 

 I have in this amount of time completed the owls sweater by Katie Davis, Also the Ishbel by Ysolda Teague and enjoyed making both very much. I still have the blocking of the Ishbel and Another 32 buttons to sew on the owls sweater but that will come soon enough.

My Friend alison from my knitting group went away for the weekend and treated me and another friend lisa to a lovely 4ply skein of silk, i chose the purple on it’s so soft i’m thinking another shawl shall be on the way.

I’ve also just met my partners cousin’s 3 month old baby girl ‘Insha’ For the first time and have decided to knit up 2 beautiful debbie bliss dresses. One of them was in the spring /summer 10 and the other in spring /summer 2009. Both of them so very cute. I’m doing some unselfish knitting for a change She’s going to look fab in them.

Me and my partner pete are off on holiday this weekend with his parents to skipsea on a campsite holiday although we aren’t going to stay there the whole time. I’m sure hoping the weather cheers up abit by the weekend though, We’ve been needing a holiday for a while and it should be nice. So i’ll be packing some light travel knitting for the weekend evenings.

Also i maybe having two of my patterns published but i can’t tell you where yet. I’m very excited i got an email today saying out of my patterns there is two that they would love to publish as long as i agree. Totally agree why not . I’ll tell you more nearer the time.

Sorry to all of my watchers, I know you may have missed me.

But i’m back

Cu all soon Nessa xxx
