The Knitter's Last Stand

Happy Birthday to me......


As the title suggests today is my forty "something" Birthday.

It has been verrrrrrrrrrrrry eventful so far as we had Miss 3yrs 8mths at the hospital most of the day.

She has been suffering a bit from gastro over the last 3 days and got dehydrated so off to hospital we went so that she could have some special drinks and special ice blocks to get a bit of fluid into her little body.

She's alright now and had a little tea then went to bed for the night.

Cindy, Sharon, Katt and I entered a pair of socks each into the Westbury World Wide Sock Competition and lo and behold Cindy and I won our respective categories.

Above is a photo of my entry in all their glory with their prize certificate above them.

The pattern is tangled garden from Knitty and the colours are the colours of my fave AFL footy team.

Our little S'n'B group are having a stall in the new market that starts this Saturday in York Town Square.

Most of us have been knitting furiously to make articles for the stall. I have either 13 or 14 articles for sale on the stall from small knitted coin purses up to the baby cot blanket mentioned in a previous post.

Hopefully we have a lot of sales (but then again if we sell everything it means we have to make more things for next weeks stall.)

Okay then I think that's all for now.

Until next time keep on knitting.
