giveaway time

At the beginning of September I started my 5th year of blogging and so I thought I'd celebrate with a little giveaway. To take part all you need to do is leave a comment below and I'll draw one winner on Wednesday October 6th. The winner can then choose one of my latest batch of animals to have as their own.

Bunnies october

I'll be putting the rest up for sale at the end of next week (some on the blog and some on Etsy – I'll email my advance list with details so please let me know if you'd like to be added to the mailing list).

Thanks to everyone who visits here, especially to those of you who take the time to comment. I started blogging because I wanted to share a love of knitting with others and to be a part of a crafty minded community and I'm very lucky to have made some wonderful friends and have discovered lots of creative people. I'm hugely grateful too that I've met lots of wonderful people with personal experience of autism, it's been such a help to read of other people's experiences and to share some of ours.

Thanks for dropping by to my little corner of the internet, J x

……………………………………………………….

Thanks so very much for all of the lovely comments, I've closed the draw now and will post later with a winner

I love it not only because I am a knitter but also because I am a nursing student, and learning more about autism is certainly useful, especially since I may go into pediatrics some day. Thank you so much for sharing these things with us! I learn so much from your blog.

    your blog definitely is one of my favourites to read. I enjoy reading about your children, your family life and sometimes you get to see a glimpse of particular English things that I like so much. (I used to live in England for a few years, quite close to where you live, in St Albans). But it is your knitting that truly brightens my day. Your toys are made with so much care and love. It is a joy to see their little outfits, carefully chosen colours etc.

I was stood with the owner today discussing how we could make the display in one of the counters look better. At the moment there are drinks and empty cake stands and a few cake tongs.
    I thought that maybe we could make some replicas of the huge range of cakes she makes (if you put them in the counter they dry up and look nasty…). And then I found your blog. I really want to say a humungous cakey thank you for giving me the inspiration. I am know in the middle of knitting cupcakes and and sponges for display in the cabinet (complete with beads and all ;)) Keep up the amazing work and I hope you inspire more people to knit.
