updating the blog.....

I need to put several projects on here that were done a while ago....

Last summer in Sheffield Central Library, as part of the Off the Shelf exhibition, there was a display of artists books.  I made a bamboo book - or bamboo yarn - about bamboo... here it is....

One of the members of knitting club had been knitting Clangers as a means of learning the craft - his daughter decided he should do a ''Clanger Nativity''  - I thought he needed some help as he only had the chance to knit two clangers before Christmas. Here they are checking out Streetmap.co.uk for details of their journey.  Three kings, a shepherd and a baby!

Doctor Who?

These are the photos of the Dr Who cardi that I knitted for the entire Easter weekend back in April.   Modelled by Kezia... the cardi was for Lucy's 21st Birthday = she's president of the Dr Who society at St Andrews Uni.  This is the first time I have ever knitted anything without a proper pattern and I drafted all the little dalek motifs myself and tried them all before knitting them into the cardi. 

Craft Stamper challenge for September

In an effort to be a bit more creative my Mum and I decided to start entering some of the challenges in Craft Stamper Magazine. For the September magazine we had to make a book mark in certain colours and no larger than a certain size. I think the colours were sage green, mauve and pink. Each bookmark had to feature some stamping (cos it is for Craft Stamper Magazine) and neutral and black and white could also be added. This is the bookmark I made:



Here is the bookmark my mum made (she's 85 and doesn't do blogging!!)
