Bloom...

I can not get enough of this pattern.  It looks so cute on all little girls.  I have finally finished the gift for my new niece (who is not so new any more and she has the slackest Aunt in the world - I hope she will fogive me)

Heading down south tomorrow and I can not wait until I get a picture of her in it.  (Is that a hint for her Ma and Pa?)

Drawstring Backpack for le BOY!

Following the wonderful instructions and tutorial by Anna over at Noodlehead. And as Guest Blogger over at Made.

A great little bag to take to playgroup with his morning tea.  He was so happy and thrilled to have his own little bag.  Complete with a little pocket with zip that this Mumma can pop her keys in so she doesn't loose them.

Amelia got one too - hers is being used as her library bag for Kindergarten. It is not a very big bag - but big enough for class reader size books.

Home..

from here...

Not that we want to be, we could have stayed a week.  And are planning on making our own long weekend after the Easter rush. (Don't know about you - but camping with 400+ other people is just not my thing)

On the knitting front - what can I say. With views and water to swim in I only managed two rows.

And a photo from Eme's view, lovely to find somewhere to take our four legged friend.


And of course the Camper Van. Designed by my talented Hubby with help from my Father in Law to put it altogether (and the use of his workshop)

On your marks...

Get Ready...

Knit...

I have once again signed up for the Ravelympics - the winter ones this time.  As mentioned previously I am going to knit myself a Feb Lady Sweater.

So here is everything ready.  I have signed up in the teammine challenge and yes you see chocolate -what can I say, I was told too.

I would also like to get the woodland shawl finished and put away - that would make one Christmas gift made and finished with 10 months to spare. I have already completed 9 repeates and the pattern calls for 12 - but I might make it a little longer.


Unfortunatly I will not be sitting in front of the TV tomorrow knitting.  We are taking a little weekend getaway and heading bush.

See you all on Monday - My Wordless Weekend pic wll magically appear while we are away.
