Well boys and girls, I'm a bit sad that this post is a little late tonight. If I'd posted it before midnight, I could have mentioned the fact that MY BLOG TURNED TWO ON CHRISTMAS DAY! Awesome right? It really doesn't feel like two whole years since that fairly boring Christmas night where I decided to start sharing some of my ramblings and some of my creations.
Speaking of creations, now that some gifts have been opened, I can tell you all a little bit about what I've made!
Remember when I made that ear-warmer thingy with that amazing turquoise wool? Well, I made something else with that wool too... A cowl for my long lost, amazing friend Jess!
Pretty woolly and warm!
I think she likes it!!
I actually bought the wool for Jess months ago, the second I saw the colour I knew it was the one for her! I hope she feels good and toasty on many a chilly day because of it.
On that very same day, I spotted some wool that I knew my dearest Anneka would just love, so I could hardly leave it behind, so I made her a similar, but slightly looser cowl!
I'm so sad I didn't get some of this wool for myself... It was so cosy!
Look how flipping cuddly and warm it looks! She threw it on as soon as she opened it, just like Jess, which really made my efforts feel so worthwhile!
I really do love making stuff for people which I know they'll really love. My most recent project was only a half assed one for myself - a Christmas jumper!
Possibly not my finest effort, but it did the trick. I think people understood that I was vaguely excited about the festive season.
I'm sorry that this is a somewhat brief post, but I've to get up early tomorrow to do lots of making and do-ing for a very important event! I'll hopefully get to post a few pictures over the next week or so, fingers crossed it all goes to plan now too!
Hoping you're all having a cuddly and warm week surrounded by those who mean the most, because, after all, isn't that what this time of year is really for?
xx
