And the boy said yes!
Here he goes on some chunky needles with some super chunky wool. He's doing really well. I'm not sure what will happen once he gets to his Nana's, I've set him off Right handed and she'll want to help, but she is left handed!*
While he was doing that, I was doing this........
Two of the shopping bags I made recently have sold, I'm told there was nearly a fight over one of them. Anyway, I got on this morning and made three more. These pretty squares were leader enders while I was making the wintery quilt. I thought they would make pretty spring shopping bags. I also finished off the very last of my Strawberry Lemonade blocks, there really are no more blocks of this stuff, though there are a few strips of jelly left.
The little denim bag with the pretty blue check pocket is for me. I've been saving the denim for a while just waiting until the right contrast came along. I found it the other day next door in the charity shop, in the shape of a pencil skirt. I was almost a shame to chop up the skirt, but I wanted my hand bag, so it had to go.*
It feels like I've hardly had a moment to myself this week, I've certainly had precious little time with my needles until today. So now I'm off to knit some more.
