Changes

I am still crocheting bits and bobs, and trying to keep up with a few exchanges. but their will be some changes this year so I may not be around as much, I will post as and when I can and remember too.
I am going to Wonderwool at the end of April, and looking forward to it also meeting up with some ladies I have spoke online to for many years but never met!
I hope the weather is not too bad where you are xx

Plans for 2015

As you know from my last post I am going to Crochet some items for Charity, I am hoping to keep a record here on my blog.(Fingers Crossed)
 But I am going to try and attend more events also this year, I will be going to Yarndale, and maybe some others if funds allow.
 I am hoping to document my stash purchases as well, I do have a Ravelry account so mostly it will be on there, but I am hoping to share with you all.
So yesterday I bought some wool and today some wool came in the post.
 
This was bought from B & M
 
I bought this Patons Fab, from The Range.

 
I also took a trip to Hobbycraft for some more Women's Institute Premium wool

 
I did finish this hat which is a challenge from The Crochet Crowd
 
It is sized for a small woman as it is too small for me, but it will go towards my charity crochet.
 
I also made a cover for a Diary, for my Charity makes for Big Hearts Square Group on Facebook I used some pure wool mini balls I bought at The Bakewell show.
 
 
Oh the wool that came in the post today.
This mini skein pack is from The Knitting Goddess.
 
This is called Drop Dead Fred(who remembers that film?) from the The Yarn Tree who is actually based in Derby, so I love buying locally

New year wishes (pic heavy)

For you all, I had a lovely Christmas and New year, I hope you all did.
We had my Mum over Christmas day and New Years Day. I got some lovely pressies, I hope you did too.

I found this half done in an old JCS ornie mag so I finished the stitching, It may get made into something before next Christmas,
 My daughter made this
 This is me at work, LOL
 
 My puddy cats came to stay at mine over Christmas, I am not suppose to have pets in the house but better than them being alone xx

 
Presents!

 A Yarn Bin
 Cath Kidston Bag
 Monkey Pattern
 and lots more
 This was a Secret Santa exchange, with some lovely ladies on Ravelry

I just love this Gorguss Ornament I got

I used the yarn that was in my secret Santa

I went over to Aldi, bought some woll as I am going to be doing some Crochet for charity this year.

So far I have made three baby hats. I have just finished a Crochet Challenge will share that in a different post.
Ta taa for now my lovelies xx
