my progress is slow with this, she's now 7 weeks old(there about) It's my knit cafe project and I haven't managed that for two weeks!;-( so I thought id do a little and when i pulled it out of my project bag! this has happened,yarn snap?
Or I cut something I shouldn't?
The way I see it is that I have three choices.......
As being knit I cant work out what to do, so it's frog it, but I've spent weeks.
Embrace the hole?
Or take it to the next knit cafe and see if someone could help;-(

My Crocheted garden planter.
I happily planted my sweet peas, it wont last forever but I figured why not brighten up an old wicker tub, I made a lining using a plastic bag;-)
Sewing.
I so gotta Sow......
My sewing machine has been worth its weight in gold this last two weeks, I have customised five band t shirts. Completed beans duvet cover that's made from all his young teen years metal tops(back burner for years). Customised my birthday dress with a pretty little trim. (Primark) so it needed customising.
I even heard the scariest thing the other day on the radio, LBC (so fact) that people where coming to the UK for holidays just to hit Primark Oxford street? (shocking)

Back to sewing............
I brought this basket when I was 19, so yes it's officially vintage. It was one of the first things that I brought when I left home. As a child I was always fixated by sowing boxes, and there contents,button tins especially. My mother had a vintage Tupper ware box(Brwony orange with a cream lid!)
That happily held all her needles and treads, for years. My nan (more more) Mother, mother had a tin full of buttons I would tread on to cotton to make necklaces(I was very young).
But sadly I out grew this box along time ago but the memory made me hold on.
But I have decided that its time to upgrade. The reason I haven't is that what would I do with this cherished box?
Yes I have to admit I have been a little taken with the Kath Kidston! Happens to us all eventually, but why buy new when old was still in good working order just squashed! and then my good friend gem said that she needed to get a sewing box as she was forever losing her pins!
Music to my ears, she is going to happily give my retired box a new home and come my birthday ill be treating my self hopefully to a big shiny new one;-)
