Some long awaited creative posting.

It seems a very long time since I have posted anything creative that I have been working on so I shall now share three projects that I have enjoyed making.

The first is a Christmas present for my beloved partner which I am really pleased with and was chuffed when Sublime  asked if they could use the picture of said jumper in their link on ravelry and mine on ravelry shows more detail.


Also over Christmas me and H went to visit the folks and I found my long and in previous years much loved Suee that had been knitted and made for my sister 49 years ago!! 

I decided to bring her home and to co-ordinate with the bedroom made her her very own dress.





The finally project I want to share is some fingerless mitts H asked me to make him, as being a boy it is not "cool" to be seen in a hand made jumper apparently! but mitts are cool and I have to say I am again very pleased with them.  The link to them and the pattern I have made is on Ravelry the only request I would make is if you are going to use the pattern please link to my page.






Lastly I had to share a new photograph of our walk on my phone setting of our lovely Cleeve Hill walk as I love the Panoramic shot it really conveys the view.

Christmas break 2011

Boxing Day 2011

As with every other day today was no exception in terms of dog walking and as with most weeks we had a lovely walk up Cleeve Hill.  I do find it fascinating how the weather is so different and creates such different images daily.









28th December 2011

It is tradition for me on 27th of December to always go and visit my folks and see my cousins.  This year had a nice twist as myself and H went to stay overnight.

On the 28th we had a visit to a town I love Clevedon and had a very blustery walk on Poets Hill and down to the pier.  I really like the different architecture in Clevedon with the buildings and the fact that you can see up the estuary to Gloucestershire and over to Wales.  We also came across a drinking fountain dating back to 1895!  They don't make drinking fountains like this anymore, it even had a fountain for your dogs to drink from!
