Before I get to my finish off  Fridays I need to SQUEEEEEEE - this is the first time ever but look at the picture:


Just can't wait to make things out of them :-)
Today is a happy day!

My son was up at 2am this morning with earache :-(.  This means going out to my christmas party is cancelled. It's lucky that we can't go as it's not stopped snowing all morning:


Doesn't look much but round here the roads go to a stand still with the slightest snow.

Now to the things I've been making this week.  Sorry I didn't post any WIPs but I'd finished everything that day.



I've made 3 of these scarfs as presents for the ladies in our family.  I hope they like them!

The pattern is really easy to follow.  I made mine with aaron and made it slightly shorter but I really like how they have turned out.


A friend wanted a phone holder for her mother-in-law.  This is the first one I've ever made and I think it turned out quite well.  I hope she likes it.

I got the pattern from:

It's a fantastic pattern to follow, very easy and step by step photo's to follow.

Hope you like my FO's.  I'm off to go and make a tea cosy for my mum for christmas.

    Those scarves are going to be well-loved gifts, what a nice pattern! I'm definitely tempted by it, I love that scalloped-edge look.

    And I hope your son is feeling better soon.

    The scarves are going to be wonderful gifts. You did a great job on your first phone holder. I liked how you personalized it, too.

    Still strikes me as funny that as a Canadian I need to look at UK blogs to see snow in December !?! Fantastic scarves - they're sure to be very popular. Can't wait to see the tea cosy!

    Thank you everyone for your kind comments! My son is a lot better thanks. Some nice warm olive oil seemed to do the trick. Only a few more days at school and then we can relax and have fun at Christmas! Hope you are all having fun in the lead up to Christmas.
