Took a pic of this as Mum has the only copy. My 15 minutes of fame when a customer in my shop won a competition and they dragged us into the street to take this. Im the redhead or was then now Im pretty much white but I love it.

Busy hands

Im making small rugs for little toes next to the bed. Priority is to use up random leftover balls of yarn so 4 strands of DK and 10 mm circular needles work really well and knit up quickly. I had the flu for 10 days and couldn't do much but this knitting was ok. I have never been a fan of circular needles but these are lovely, just plain wood and a plastic  tube - rescued from someone who didn't know what to do with them - there seems to be a recurring theme here.

Day one, so far so good.

Yet another caravan cross stitch, hoping  they are as popular with others as they are with me. Had to stop stitching and take the grandlets to the park for about 10 minutes as it was too cold to do anything. John took Michael a walk round the play area while I encouraged Beth to move about and keep warm, then we swopped, Both of us were in agony made worse by the cold but the little ones need air and unplugging at least once a day. Michael is going in hospital tomorrow to be knocked out and have a few teeth out - the only way with auties is extreme. He is being very calm at the moment but we are walking on egg shells as he gets very stressed about it all. Will be very glad when its done.
