It's been a long time coming, but spring is definitely in the air.

I like this photo, I think it's fitting for Easter time.

  This is only the second time I've come across slow worms in my life, this one was quite happy to sit there whilst I took photos!

 

"Amen" is coming along nicely, slowly, but nicely, now.

I had a bit of a mishap when I started to embroider the words in grey, but the yarn would not sit neatly on the knitting, so I took it off and put a hole in my knitting at the same time... I had to frog about 20 rows and re-knit.

 and I've had a bit of a stash enhancement!

As you know I love to support my local yarnies....Fyberspates, although on the border, is Made in Wales and she does have some lovely yarns and drop spindles too!

And if that's not enough....I've subscribed to this.

handknithero I start in April! I can't wait!

Handknit Heroes  a handknitting superhero comic...how could I resist?

I've not been particularly busy, I've not been particularly well, again but this time I have succumbed to it and had some time off, much to my dismay, I hate being off work and I HATE being slowed down!

I've got a few things lined up. I have a meeting this morning with the guy who runs the Youth Centre (providing he's there) to see if I can run an Easter craft session....and hopefully regular sessions through the Summer hols. 

And the local charity knitting group have asked me to find some more modern baby knits for them....Here's a few...

Woolly Wormhead's Jester Hat :     Baby Kimono:       Cabled Bib (Ravelry Link)

Well I think I've got enough to be going on with don't you....

Hope you're all well.

    I was loving the daffodils - coming out faster than ours - and the buds on trees - the 'slow worm'? Not so much... too snake-like for me, even if it is a sign of spring...

    Sorry to hear you've not been well, I hope you are recovered by now. Love the Amen and Fybrespates yarn is completely irresistible.
