Small World!


A lady from the UK left the neatest comment today when buying a pattern! She said, "Out shopping today met a lovely lady her baby had this hat on absolutely gorgeous" She was referring to my Lil' Cupcake Baby Hat. It's so neat to think that here I am in New Zealand and a baby in the UK is wearing a handmade hat of my design and doing some advertising for me by being adorably cute in it. :)
I made a new cable hat pattern this weekend. My friend had a little boy recently and this hat is part of his welcoming gift. My husband was excited that I used up a ball of yarn making it...though truth be told, I bought 10 more balls of yarn this weekend! :) I got some lovely ruby red wool to start making those secret "slipper swap" ballet flats I'm supposed to make for a lady who shall remain nameless... :)

  1. hehe I hope Gibert doesn't start compairing your addiction with mine, then you know you need professional help, lol I have been told strictly that no more balls of yarn are to enter this house, hehe bugger that he is leaving again next week, surely a few more wouldn't be noticable right?????

  2. No, your hooks have not yet arrived. I may have to fly to USA to collect them myself. :)

  3. I like your new cable hat; I've yet been able to find a pattern I like on my own head that also fits snugly. You have such neat designs; I enjoy reading about them! I miss our "Anne" crocheting parties!
