Inspirations

Squonkster (Caroline) and I have decided on a crazy idea of becoming famous knitwear designers.

So have taken to carrying around my camera and snapping any interesting designs and patterns I come across. Here are two I may utilise for a hat pattern.

Watch this space as Squonkboots Knits takes over the world! Mwa ha ha.


Ice Ice Baby







Brrr, it was cold out. And what's left of the snow is slippy slidy ice. Jake and Joe had fun and so did all the geese etc.

I even found some Ngaio Marsh books in Rock Hall at Moses Gate Country Park, hurrah!

Saturday

The boys are with us but it has been such a murky damp day we haven't ventured far at all. Sal went off and got a new TV for our bedroom and Jake and Joe have been playing LBP.

I have been watching them and reading Audrey Niffenegger's latest book and eating winter nips. It isn't a patch on The Time Travellers Wife but still interesting.

Snow...


Work cancelled today. I struggled in yesterday, walked there and back, and got very damp on the way home. Glad to be off today, keeping warm, blogging, surfing and knitting. Oh if only I could do this all the time...

Gloves


Driver stylee. One down, will start the next one soon, promise...

Knitting


Started up on a shawl pattern I had problems with a few months ago, now I think I have cracked it. It is from Rebecca magazine. Very nice cool patterns.

Happy New Year!
