Another Cardigan

Morning all it's promising to be another nice day here in the West (apologies south & east of the country!)
Just finished off another lovely little cardigan and though I would share it!
Lovely colour chosen by my friend and it works great with the yellow buttons!!

I really liked the pattern which was very straight forward to make which was great!!
Have a happy day!

Knitting

I finished this lovely little cardigan for a friend recently and just had to show off my little ribbon flower - first time I've added a finishing touch like that and I think it worked out quite well!!!!

And now I also know how to get pictures from my phone onto blogger without having to save them as drafts onto Gmail - happy days!!!

Working on some charity knits - facecloths etc at the minute and a lovely turquoise cardigan for another friend - busy busy!!!!

Charity Knits

Hi All
Am quite excited as I have just found 3 lovely patterns for my charity knits!
As well as partaking in the West of Ireland Women's Mini Marathon on the May Bank Holiday Weekend I am going to knit up some really cute items for sale and all the money will go to the Cherynobel Children's Trust!
Here is a sneak preview of the knits - keep an eye out for when they are on sale!!!

Aren't they really cute!!!!!
Just ordered lots of wool from The Constant Knitter and can't wait to get started on them!!!!!
Bye!!!

April

Oh my goodness where did March go!!!!!!
April is going to be a busy month - I have a few Cari Design knitting orders to get through and am really enjoying the projects that I am working on.
Also in training with my friend to power walk the West of Ireland Mini Marathon on May 6th - a separate entry on that to follow!!!
Am spring cleaning the house - I know I know most people start that earlier in the year - but I had a very productive day clearing out our wardrobe yesterday and now it feels bigger and airier than ever so I am inspired to keep going and tackle all the other rooms, it may take a while and turn from a spring, to summer to possibly an autumn clean!!!!!

Happy Monday

Just back from a long walk and feeling very refreshed!!!! I am quite amazed at how well exercise makes you feel, I must admit I am a recent convert and am enjoying all the different things I am doing. I am happier during the day and sleeping better at night. The not eating lots of crap is helping too!!! We had a lovely weekend, didn't do anything really just relaxed which was really nice. I finished off the jumper and hat set I am knitting for a friend so hopefully she likes it! Going to start a neckwarmer today and should have that done later on - might even get it up on Etsy! Little lady is gone for her nap now so I am off for a cuppa and to start on that neckwarmer!

Monday

Went walking this morning with a friend and although it was pretty cold, feel so much better after it!! Nice to get out of the house - the little lady eventually got tired of staying in the buggy and wanted to walk herself. Have my spinning class tonight and am looking forward to the challenge!!! Am knitting up a Debbie Bliss Jumper for a friend and it is starting to look lovely - lots of fiddly bits on it but it will be worth it in the end! Hoping and aiming to have it finished, I would like to say tomorrow but most likely Wed or Thurs!!! Signing off

Thursday

Hi there So tonight is Zumba Toning!! I am going to this blind as I don't have a clue what it will be like but am looking forward to it all the same! Wasn't sore at all after the Spinning class on Monday which I think is unbelievable!!! Trying to find time to knit is getting harder - little lady keeps saying 'bye bye mama's knitting' and that makes me feel crap. Even though that is after hours of endless time catering to her every whim and two minutes of knitting!!!! Anyway will let you know how Zumba goes!! Bye

Resolutions

Number 1 - visit & blog more often (slap on the wrist!)
Number 2 - take little lady swimming regularly - she has to learn to love it!
Number 3 - Knit, knit, knit, knit, knit

So there you have it - oh forgot one!

Number 4 - get fit & eat healthy

that one is obligatory isn't it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So that's it I am going to try to blog regularly about my very exciting (he he) life and times!!
see you soon
