WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS




Basically I'm still just a big kid. I bought this circus for one my nieces this Christmas and I'm still a bit  jealous. It is just such a cool toy-box. The french people over at Janod knows what they are doing - getting the grown-ups hooked first.

COLD MOUNTAIN








Strange things are happening. Daffodils are popping up in the snow - yes Oxford has snow. I don't know why everyone is so surprised  - we have had it for the last three years. I'm keeping indoors with a nice cup of tea and a new hat projects. I don't know about you but I have become hat crazy. Who knows maybe this is a start of a new book!

WORK IT LADS!




I need to get cracking on becoming better at knitting. All the cool cardigans that I see for men are always knitted...never crocheted.

STRAWBERRY BLOND





Couples of weeks back, I came up with this idea of crocheting a Strawberry hat. Not until this Christmas did I have time to sit down and make one. Thanks mum for the wool! Perfect for the spring like weather we have got here in Oxford.
