A bit about puff daddy...

Hi my lovelies

This is not about the rapper puff daddy but about these...

I love them!

They are from Christian Meinderstsma but they might be out of a lot of people's price range so Pickles has made one herself and allows people to use the pattern.

I am thinking of doing one when we move house they would work so well as a comfy foot stool or as a work of art if you stack them on top of each other.

Hope you enjoyed reading : )

A bit about knitting a snood...

Hi my lovelies

I have finished my snood!

And here it is....

The pattern goes as follows

I used size 6 1/2 mm needles with the thickest wool I could fine. The colour is a light cream but you could do it in any colour you want.

~Step 1 ~

Cast on 90 stitches (I worked length ways)

~Step 2 ~

Work 2 Knit, 2 purl for 3.5"

~Step 3 ~

Work garter stitch for 10 rows

~Step 4 ~

Work 2 knit, 2 purl for 3.5"

~Step 5 ~

Cast off
~Step 6 ~
Sew up the middle and attach whatever buttons you fancy
DONE!

Here are a few pictures...

The only thing I would possibly change, if I had to change something, would be the width I think it would be worth it to make it bigger, like 100 or 110 stitches but its up to you.

Hope you like it : )

Any questions I will try and answer

Autumn Weekend...

Hi my lovelies

Hope your all had a nice weekend!
Just thought I would share a few pictures from my autumn weekend. My extended family came down from Wales so all in all it was a really nice weekend.

As you can see from the picture above Adam (my fiancee) was having a game of tug of war with millie and  her toy rat (aptly named Ratty), don't worry for the people out there who think ew! he has a dogs toy in his mouth, it was a new toy and no doggy germs were on it when he placed it in his mouth. 

We have a small farm at the top of our garden and this little fellow is one of animals, he hasn't got a name so any good names, leave in the comments!

Millie likes to sit on the bench with her new toy : ) 

Dad, dog and new toy 

Hope you enjoyed reading : )
