My Creative Space

I'm running late with this today.  Hubby was working from home for the morning, before going into Miss O's class for Maths Group.  The computer was completely hijacked, so I had to do laundry and general tidying up instead.
This week I have managed to finish (bar tying in the loose threads) the crochet dolls blanket.  I got a bit carried away and decided to work a border into it.  To say I am completely thrilled with the end result, would be an understatement.  I am gobsmacked a) that I finished something b) that it looks good (to me).

Drum Roll moment .... 

 On the knitting front ...

A frenzy of knitting patches.  Last weekend we spent a day with friends catching up.  "Do you mind if I knit?" I asked as I sat down.  A peel of laughter ensued ha ha - 3 hours later and cupboards are being pulled apart looking for those knitting needles and odd balls of wool.  To keep my interest level high - as I am prone to drift - I put a 'what it might look like' together.  I'm liking it.  This is going to be a knee throw, so there isn't a great deal more knitting now.

Maybe.

 I managed to also FINISH (loving that word today) the paper garland

for my new little great nephew.

So sweet.

My neighbour had a baby girl yesterday.  I think she will be home today.

Labour has been stopping and starting for the past week.

Looking after a two year old was exhausting.  I was in bed by 9.00pm last night.

Being a night owl, this was out of the ordinary for me.

I will start on a couple of little singlets for the new arrival today.

Time to pop into Kootoyoo to see everyone else.
