Things I'm Loving

I never seem to remember to do this post before the linky stops me.  So here goes.  Joining in with Paisley Jade's - Things I'm Loving Fridays  Yes I do know that it is Saturday.


Loving this photo of Miss 3rd Girl Posie, taken on Thursday during our knitting/crochet session.  She is using her toes as tention to help pull her french knitting through - so cute.



Loving that teaching the four of them also gave me the confidence to teach Amelia.  She has been asking for ages if I could teach her how to knit and I keep telling her when she is 6.  Her sixth birthday is quickly approaching and I know that my Mum has a little sewing/knit kit ready for her, so there will be nothing standing in her way.

Loving longer days and sun shinny afternoons. A picnic on the front lawn,  'restuarant'  style during the week, complete with wattle cuttings and milky tea.

Thie joy on this little girls face when she came out of Acrobatics today and told me that she did a handstand.  (I was a sneaky Mum and took a video through the window)

Wonderful feed back from a friend.  We traded services.  Haircuts for Knits (not the creepy crawly variety either!)  Here is the beanie that was requested for a friends 40th birthday.

Hope that you are all enjoying a wonderful weekend.

  1. What a great idea trading services, free haircuts would seem like a bargain to you and I obviously your friend is very happy with the beanie!

  4. I know knitting with fingers but with toes? Well, 5 fingers or 5 toes, should be the same ;)

  5. Oh that is such a great shot of my youngest girl, i love it!! She does maintain amazing tension, i just think she looks like a child tied to a loom in a 3rd world country using her arms & legs to be faster??!! Thanks again for our lovely lessons, all put to good use knitting all the way home to Canberra (with my son finger crocheting!!) Love Posie
